Description
This is my take on Wyrmspan resources. I wanted to resize the original pieces so they were all roughly the same size, but ended up remodeling most of them from scratch so I could adjust their shape as well.
The gold bar is modeled after real gold bar dimensions. It's 1Hx2Wx4L in scale and has tapered sides/corners like real gold bars (best I could find for a “standard”).
The meat was remodeled so that I could easily print it in white/red on my MK4 with color change layers. It has 0.5mm “fat” on both sides that I printed in white and the middle was printed in transparent red.
The bottle was remodeled from scratch to clean up the bumpy texture of the original models and to resize it. It also became useful because it allowed me to play with different milk inserts. I tried to make some that looked like spilled milk, but they really didn't turn out great. I settled on just different fill levels to mix things up.
I used a 0.25mm nozzle to print most of mine to get the fine details and accurate measurements, but they should be printable with a 0.4mm nozzle just fine. The bottle/milk pieces require some pretty tight tolerances, though, as they're just friction-fit.
This prints easily. Nothing special about it.
The “fat” lines should be at least 0.55mm wide everywhere, so they should print fine on a 0.4mm nozzle, but I was using a 0.25mm nozzle for everything. Nothing special about how to print the meat. I just did two color changes to print the fat lines in white and the middle in transparent red. The fat layers are 0.5mm tall and inset 0.5mm from the outer edge.
This printed fine for me without supports, but used a “structural” profile to keep the speeds slower for some of the sharp overhangs. I did force my extrusion width to 0.45mm on the 0.25mm nozzle and set a rear seam position so I could make sure the seam was on one of the sides instead of the points.
I included the full solid bottle model if you just want to print a solid bottle in a single color. If you want to get fancy, though, you can print a bottle exterior in clear and then print milk inserts. I've included different levels of milk inserts just for fun. The bottles are modeled with an 8mm exterior diameter and the milk inserts are 6.95mm. This assumes a 0.5mm bottle wall thickness and a 0.025mm gap. This should provide a decent friction fit. I suggest doing a test print and adjust bottle wall thickness to dial it in.
I printed milk inserts using:
I printed the bottle using transparent filament and:
