First big project

Our first big printing project. A 10x10x10cm desk organizer that is designed like a fidget cube. 42 hour print, 350 grams, 20 % infill. Designed by a group of grade 8 technology students.

Cross your fingers for us!!!!!


UNFORTUNATELY
This is the way it turned out. The plastic was crossed over on the spool and ruined the feed of plastic about an hour ago.  We shall try again......


Learning
This picture illustrates supports that are printed to hold up parts of the object. The knob to the right has the support removed and the knob to the left has the support still in place. The semi circular protrusion to the right has had its support cut away, but it is still standing nearby.
Perseverance pays off
