Ghost Benchy (FDM)

February 14, 2025
Description
Sadly, our favourite test model and loyal companion the 3DBenchy has died.
But it seems its spirit lives on to scare away all the printing failures and miscalibrations.
This cute little Ghost Benchy is an empty Hull with cloth like shape as if a Benchy dressed as a ghost on halloween for trick or treat.
It is a very organic shape which needs supports on some areas on the inside like the chimney.
To enhance the impression that it is a floating cloth, the stand surface has been designed irregularly. The contact surfaces to the print bed are not a problem for a well adjusted printer, but if your printer has problems with bed adhesion, I recommend to provide them with supports as well.
The GhostBenchy has a slightly flattened base surface for good bed adhesion with FDM/FFF Printing.
Modelled in Blender3D
Inspired by the original 3D Benchy
There is also a version for SLA printing which hasn't this flattened Bottom here:
