  1. Community Contest, part 7 | The Final, rotated

    Oh no! Professor Ultimaker disturbed the Egyptian mummies! Some crazy virus turned them into stretched zombies. Luckily with the mysterious powers of the Ancient Moai Professor Ultimaker was able to summon Joenny the Cube to fight against the zombie!

  2. Community Contest, part 6 | Don't trust atoms, they make up everything

    Time to learn about stuff we use daily without knowing much about. Yeah it melts at certain temperatures, depending on the manufacturer, or has a certain glass temperature so the heated bed must be this hot. But what is PLA actually?
    Well, PLA is Polylactic acid. Poly stands for many, so many actic acids, you'd say? Today Wikipedia told me it does not use correct Organic nomenclature, as defined by the IUPAC, as it is not a polyacid, but rather a polyester.
    Instead of further citing Wikipedia, have a read yourself, it's quite interesting: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polylactic_acid
    So PLA is a chain with many copies of the link I printed, as can be seen in the picture. As the picture explains, the green are the Hydrogen atoms, grey are the oxygen atoms and blue are the carbon atoms, sadly I didn't have enough time to print that with colorfabb Carbonfill :(

  3. Community Contest, part 5 | The tribute

    Right off the bat it was clear it would be a Colorfabb special material moment. Woodfill for the frame, clear XT for the Heated Bed and a nice miniature spool of XT. And finally I couldn't resist to also make a tiny bronze spool, which turned out to be so cute!
    As everything snapped together, all of miniature land came to see, from the left to the right: the famous Dutch Lion that was uploaded in the wrong place, the tiny Easter Island head, the Louvre piramide that was printed as a test for the Colorfabb timelapse, and finally the Ultibot pair. Left of the two is the first print with my heated bed, there was a z-step error somewhere in the firmware so the fellow got a bit stretched out. His brother was the next generation and turned out to be just fine!
    Settings: I used the standard settings for Colorfabb prints:
    http://learn.colorfabb.com/print-_xt/
    http://learn.colorfabb.com/print-bronzefill/
    http://learn.colorfabb.com/how-to-print-with-woodfill/
    With .2mm layerheight, 0.4 nozzle, 0.8 shell and 1.2 top/bottom, 20% fill.
    Note: Mini Ulti was out of woodfill, so I used XT to push the woodfill through the bowden tube
    Note2: As I was assembling Mini Ulti I dropped it and it broke :(Hence the scars.

  4. Failed Entry: Community Contest, part 4 | Going Dutch

    I failed to be able to participate in the contest as I didn't upload the print here, but here's the info anyway:
    I put the lion in Meshmixer to cut it in 3 parts, measured out into how many red I had left in 1 piece. The white and blue pieces were cut in a way the white piece would have a nice bed adhesion surface.
