New 3D Print: Hex Vase 01

I used the same technique for the “hex vases” to make a simple bowl.  This one took a little over seven hours on my Makerbot Replicator (1).

New 3d print: ‘Decorative Bowl’

I got it in my head to try a ‘simple bowl’ print, and generated the below model in Maya.  It started out as NURBS, I slapped a lattice on it to get it into the desired shape, then converted it to polys for export.   It’s about 4.5″ wide, 5.75″ deep, and 2.5″ high.

The final product I painted two-tone with spray-paint:  The outer shell is a rubberized spray, I wanted to see how much it would ‘fill in’ the printing ridges.  After four coats, it had just started too.

The inside was sprayed with a bright cherry red.  None of the surfaces were sanded, but I think I’ll try that finishing method on the next one I print.

The whole thing took a bit over seven hours to print on my Makerbot Replicator.
