December 18th continued:
Thursday after work, I set up the Tevo printer to print off the upper body section, hopefully from the point it stopped on Sunday.
I also re-setup my action cam to keep an eye on the printer.
Friday morning:
The upper part printed well, and by the looks of it may only of been a layer or two out.
After cleaning the print supports off, I glued the two halves together.
Next up was the dome, got home and after having some temperature issues with the filament, eventually got it printing…….only to realise that the file wasn’t the extra large version 😩😩😩. So won’t be doing any printing this weekend 😔😔😔.
Once the above had been rectified, printing began.
The filament is illumines lol as can be seen in the picture above. Yes, it’s R5’s dome.
And here are some assembled pictures of it. The dome isn’t glued on, there’s a lip that sits in the neck of the body.
To be painted……probably yes.
