The Steam Rocket

pinshape

The Steam Rocket Blasts Off for Mars! This incredible Steampunk-inspired rocket is designed to be detailed and incredibly easy to print, requiring no rafts or supports. It's divided into 5 parts, making it effortless to adjust printer settings as needed. Particular attention has been given to the 5_antenna component, which features a challenging angle that demands a slower print speed of at least 0.1mm to 0.12mm layer height to achieve optimal results. Assembling this rocket is a breeze - simply follow the numbers from 1 (bottom) to 5 (top), using some glue to secure everything in place. To get the most out of your printing experience, I highly recommend: * A 0.25 nozzle for crisp, detailed prints * Walls between 0.75mm and 1mm thick for added stability * Layer heights ranging from 0.1 to 0.15mm for optimal texture * Print speeds between 10mm/s and 30mm/s for a smooth finish However, the 5_antenna.stl file requires a slower print speed of around 3mm/s to 5mm/s, possibly benefiting from a raft to keep it securely in place. Have fun with this project! If you decide to paint it, please share your masterpiece with us.
