I recently got my first 3D printer to my place just a couple weeks ago! I thought it would be really nice to keep a small sample of each of my filaments printed out so that I have a readily-available example of what each actually looks like.
Does anybody else do this? If so, which part(s) do you use? I spent probably 15-20 minutes looking for a nice, small, low-poly object that I really liked.
I like the gold one, in the back. Can I see a close up of It? It's really pretty.
Sure! My gold came out really nice. As a bonus, I also tried printing one of the amogus ghosts in good, and it’s probably the nicest print I’ve had yet. Can’t even see the layer lines!
That's crazy pretty!! Thanks!
