My daughter wanted a “Gorilla Tag” birthday. And my wife wanted me to print some party favors for the guest kids. Not my model, but they are churning out ok-ish.
Always go for fidget toys, less complicated and kids like them
Ya, I’ve actually done that in the past. I printed and gave out a print in place bearing fidget toy. This model was a bit ambitious but it coming out pretty well. I also did Among Us ghost key-chains for Halloween one year. Turns out that my 3d printer is mostly just a toy maker for my kids.
That’s a fun arty favor, I love being able to print silly little toys for the kids that they cannot find on the shelf. Sure, it’s a mother silly plastic thing, but I made it for them and that’s neat imo
Oh God did you do these one model at a time?
Ya, my printer leaves a lot to be desired and I had a heck of a time getting even one to print cleanly. So, I didn’t want to have one fail and ruin the batch. I did print the last two I needed together, over night. Was running out of time and just went for it.
Each one was about 4.5 hours printing and 10-20 minutes of cleanup. These required a lot of supports. I did 24 in total.
But, they were a hit at the party, so it was worth it.No no it was totally worth it, if you had done them all in one go the gradient would have been the same on all the models, this way it’s much more interesting and each kid gets their own color
