Wireframe Skull - Perfect Edition
Have us print this for you
PLA from £6 inc. UK delivery on letter-sized prints. We slice, print on a calibrated Creality K2 / Bambu A1, QC and post.
I noticed a lot of mesh errors in the original wireframe skull, so I went back to the source and rebuilt the skull with a much cleaner mesh.
I also scaled it up to make it print a good size, you can scale it however you want in your slicer.
I created the base and added it on too, so it'll adhere and print easier and provide a nice base for whatever you put inside.
The print in the image was printed at 150%, 0.2mm layer height in silver PLA.
This model has been verified as manifold in Rhinoceros 3D, there are no gaps or errors in the mesh that I can find.
__If you have errors and holes in your slicer, it is probably an issue with the slicer getting confused with the complex detailed geometry and/or some settings that need to be tweaked to take into account the small geometry.
Alternatively, printing in a larger size can help too.__
__ THE MESH IS MANIFOLD AND HAS NO HOLES! If your slicer is showing holes, it is a settings or slicer issue due to the complex detailed geometry. I suggest you double and triple check settings and/or scale up to a larger size.__ This is especially true around the nose and eyes.
[EDIT 2019-07-22]
I have completely cleaned up the mesh, it now has no overlapping faces or open gaps anywhere.
This is about as perfect as it gets now.
[EDIT 2019-07-20]
I fixed the base and simplified it a lot (the boolean union to add the base to the skull was borked) so it should print much better now.
I've supplied STL and the…
