"The Strenchies" a stretched #3DBenchy collection, wide, long and tall Benchy

The popular 3D printing test model deformed to its utmost absurdity. The new 3D print torture test gang is calling themselves "The Strenchies" which have wreak havoc amongst the benchy population and are now coming to infiltrate your collection aswell.

This is a modified version of the most popular 3D printer test object, the "3D Benchy" by Creative Tools (original model on Thingiverse, https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:763622). Each of the gang members were stretched 200% in either X, Y or Z directions but compensated in another dimension to retain the same volume as the original. Therefore the amount of material and print time is roughly the same as for the standard 3DBenchy.

Overview and printing tips

The "Tall Boy":

Traits:

• can see farther than you ever will
• intimidates its enemy from above

Printing tips and info:

• print time approx. 58 min @ 0.2 mm (with prepare time), 14.0 g
• requires a brim since the contact area to the buildplate turned out somehwat small

The "Wide Boy":

Traits:

• does not fit the door sometimes
• can (and will) push you over, including everything around you

Printing tips and info:

• print time approx. 44 min @ 0.2 mm (with prepare time), 13.7 g
• benefits from some supports under the hull but is also fully printable without. Regardless, the underside will look somewhat horrible at 0.2 mm layer height.

The “Long Boy”

Traits:

• faster... definitely faster
• has significant advantage in sprint races

Printing tips and info:

• print time approx. 42 min @ 0.2 mm (with prepare time), 12.1 g
• the tip of the hull curls up during printing. The model is oriented in such a way, that the left-side auxillary cooling fan is blowing directly onto the tip. Otherwise prints normally and does not require any special treatment.

Used materials in my prints:

eSUN PLA matte white
eSUN PLA+ magenta
eSUN PLA+ yellow
GEEETECH PLA light blue

Printed with BambuLab P1S @0.2 mm layer height, 2 walls, 15% grid infill, arachne wall generator.

Have fun printing ;)
