Cryptex

by
A side project I have been working on for a week or two now as a future prop for our gaming is this Cryptex design. The original files are available on Thingiverse, both the remixed version (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3090603) and the original version (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3074829). I used Hatchbox Black PLA for the interior mechanics, and Prusament Galaxy Silver…

It has been a while since I have tried to do timelapse videos of my 3d printing, but with the new printer, I am attempting to make a return to this format. As part of the replacement, I upgraded the Raspberry Pi to version 4b, and added a v2 Raspberry Pi camera. In general, the…

Watch Tower Assembly

Watchtower, 3rd floor
After several weeks, I have completed the 3rd floor of the Watchtower project – at least the printing stage. Once I am able to print the roof section, then I will be disassembling everything for painting, before re-assembling and gluing the pieces. The design is supposed to be modular sections – different pieces that lock…

While I continue to struggle with trying to render and publish the latest Age of Ashes session, its time for me to get working on the trophy for our upcoming Magic: The Gathering tournament. This Saturday, from 2 PM to 5 PM, we will be hosting our 3rd annual Thanksgiving Tournament, though the date this…

Something completely different
As a side project, my son asked me to 3d print him a swan, in gold. Apparently, it is a joke between him and his friends. Not exactly sure what is funny about a golden swan, but ask, and delivered. The print was a bit of a challenge – the neck did not want to…
