Just a test of some cheaper alternative to Sculpey poly clay. I think it worked OK. The photo isn’t very good, but the critter is plenty solid and strong.
My first 3D printed object
No, I didn’t buy a 3D printer. Although that’s still on the list of things to get. Our local library has a Makerbot that they let people print to. I downloaded this from an online 3D model repository and printed it out. The library also has a 3D scanner, which I’m going to use to scan something a week from today. Anyway, here’s the first thing I created from a digital file:
Tigger
