3D Printing: 4/16/25

  • What do you think of Tinkercad?
    • I have very mixed emotions about Tinkercad. While it is good for beginners, I find that its way of moving objects around can be quite annoying. I think I would prefer to work with blender for most projects, but for more simple projects I would work with Tinkercad for its simplicity. It has its pros and cons. However, I love the naming of files. It is very entertaining(until you have to actually find it).
  • What challenges did you face with 3D Printing?
    • This print is the worst thing I have ever had to deal with. It had made me want to rip my hair out. From things not coloring correctly in Prusa (I had to turn down the plane value of the fill bucket), to the filament breaking, to the printer deciding I have to select the color and me not knowing what it is planning to print, this nametag has been a pain in my butt.
  • Where did you draw inspiration from?
    • I really like bats and vampires so I took inspiration from that. Part of it was just me messing around. Fun Fact: the clouds are actually speech bubbles but I hid the points/
