So, it turns out you can 3D print RIGHT ON CLOTHING! NEAT! Hello #PRINTERNETS! This is the SPAM! logo from the bag that I printed in the last episode which is the full how-to for printing on shirts and cloth. After a bunch of trial and error, I've worked out the process! First, start with three first layers at the least. Next, use low heat to get the job done right. Then, set your layer height lower than .25 for best results. Avery Label Sheets are perfect for this task - you can find them here: http://www.avery.com/avery/en_us/Products/Labels/Addressing-Labels/White-Mailing-Labels_05353.htm or here: http://www.avery.com/avery/en_us/Products/Crafts-%26-Scrapbooking/Sticker-Project-Paper/White-Sticker-Project-Paper_03383.htm - just about any sticker sheet will work. Cut out a sheet that matches the size of your build plate. Stick the sheet onto the back side of the cloth. Clip down the cloth (with the sheet on the underside) on all four corners, making sure it's flat as can be. Re-level your build plate so that the nozzle just touches the cloth. As for how well it will hold up to the washing machine - I have no idea. That's why I suggest using fabric glue. And as usual, here is the build video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o90CNL4oyJ0 See you next time!
