Hammer

Here is proof that high performance composite (powder) 3D printing can provide very real usable parts.

We printed this hammer I designed and finished it using our Resin-X© thermoplsatic resin. As depicted, we have driven over 100 3.5" nails into solid wood for demonstration.

Note that there were hardly any marks on the head, nor were there any chips after all that use.

Yes, it may still be brittle, but it takes a good beating!

Instructions

1. Print using your best 3DP technology.
2. Post treatment, sand, finish, clean, paint... whatever.**
3. Bang nails into stuff.
4. Gloat.

** the colour is care of www.protofacturing.com and our colour 3D printer.
