Vase Mode - Tintin style Moon Rocket

prusaprinters

<p>This is my take on a Tintin style moon rocket made up of a body and 3 fins each of which can be printed in vase mode (spiralize outer contour in Cura) resulting in a quick smooth seamless print. The parts slot easily together.</p> <p>A section of moon surface for use as a display base which will also print in vase mode positioned on its side is included.</p> <p>Scalable and printed well at 75%.</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p> <p>Creality</p> <p class="detail-setting printer"><strong>Printer: </strong> <div><p>Ender 3</p></div> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting supports"><strong>Supports: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Resolution:</strong></p> <p>0.2 mm layer height, 0.4 mm line width</p> <p class="detail-setting infill"><strong>Infill: </strong> <div><p>Nil</p></div> <p><strong>Filament:</strong> X3D PLA <br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong></p> </p><div><p>Vase mode (spiralize outer contour)<br/> I found if I increased line width while printing the body the nose cone became deformed due to insufficient part cooling (perhaps preventable by printing slower). <p>The base may deform as it cools this can be reduced by removing from build plate before complete cooling (exposing the vent hole) or increasing line width.</p> </p></div></p></p></p> Category: Scans & Replicas
