Can I print a solid, interesting, and decent quality large scale ornament suitable for outdoor use during the holidays? View this post on Instagram A post shared by Dwyer Devices (@dwyerdevices) I used an ornament design that was provided with built in supports, which made sense for the complex geometry. I scaled up the print to 175%…

PKSW Ornament – Final Version
After two full redesigns, three rounds of print testing, and completely re-selecting materials, the holiday ornaments were ready. A short batch of print runs was enough to build ornaments for the handful of friends and family we want to gift them too.

Wizard’s Desk
As they’ve delved through their first few dungeons, the adventurers have already happened upon a wizard or two. A workbench served as a make-shift desk for a goblin wizard in the Sewer Dungeon, but soon the party will happen upon a much more organized wizard, with a fully equiped desk (working drawers and all): View this post on…

Seven Oases – Print One
We’re building a city – the haven of the Seven Oases. Elevated walkways, docks, and camps dot the shores of the lakes that are fed by springs deep under the sands. Venture too far from the shade of the trees, and the protection of the walkways and docks, and the dangers of the desert are bound to…
Wood-fill Jam and 0.4mm Drill Bits
I was experimenting with Hatchbox Wood-fill PLA, printing up some dungeon accessories, when an unfortunate thing happened. The wood fill cooled in the extruder, over heated with a small backup at the nozzle, and BAM- fully jammed hotend. The Prusa i3 ships with a small packet containing two acupuncture needles, which are the ideal size for clearing…
