Bestiary – Bulette

Minions of a dangerous foe have a captive Bulette barely contained in a cage deep in the Undermountain. Nearly berserk with rage, the Bulette is likely as dangerous to the captors as to the adventurers. Post print this model was relative easy to clean up, with support material holding up the bulk of the body: View this post…

Doll House Dining set

A piece of doll-house scale furniture broke as the kids were cavorting around the living room – the project for the morning became designing a replacement, as well as a chair to go with the table. The table is modeled after our dining room table: View this post on Instagram A post shared by Dwyer Devices (@dwyerdevices) The…

The bracelet required a fair…

Final Fantasy XV – Chocobo

At full scale and fine resolution, this would take a little over 4 days just to print the body of the chocobo. I want more along the lines of action figure / 38mm scale, so I initially printed at 25% of original model scale. At that scale it’s a bit to small – clean up is difficult,…

4 Kilometer Token

The printer was well past 4 kilometers of printed filament before I noticed. Time for another token! View this post on Instagram A post shared by Dwyer Devices (@dwyerdevices) At the current print velocity, we’ll be adding another kilometer of printed filament nearly every month.
