NYC Manhole Cover/Shield

cults3d

I wanted to create a New York City Sewer manhole cover to put with my Super7 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I wanted something that reminded me more of the worn manhole covers that I remembered from my time in NYC. After creating the file in Illustrator, I created this in Blender and Printed on my Ender 3. I have tested it out with ironing top layers and found that ironing the topmost layer gives it a nice look. Printed in Overture Space Gray PLA+. A bit of a warning on this material... when I bought it the filament easily got tangled. But these are small files so it should be fine. Diameter is 2-5/8" (66.675mm) I have also included a file with the manhole with a bracket on the back to use as a shield to replace the tiny one with my Rocksteady figure. I needed to heat up the hands a bit to get him to grip it.
