Barry Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Very good Reece, you could produce all sorts of bottles that are used for chemicals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spud Posted June 2, 2013 Author Share Posted June 2, 2013 thx barry yeah in the making is a full pallet of containers might have a pic up later of them cheers Reece Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stabliofarmer Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 That looks good. Can I ask is it CAD designed or its it one of these posh laser scanners that measures a real item and duplicates it with the printer ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spud Posted June 2, 2013 Author Share Posted June 2, 2013 just a cad design, nothing special just got to be careful how small you make things or the printer will not be able to print the detail i wish i had one of the 3d scanners would make life alot easier to make things but there not cheap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MF-ROB Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 They look great but this will sound really silly but when you say print how can you print a 20l drum ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spud Posted June 2, 2013 Author Share Posted June 2, 2013 just like this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 not that long then really, is that for all separate ones?? or did you go for a block print Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Bloody excellent. One thing which would be great printed are the spools of baler twine as they always come in pairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stabliofarmer Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Are they printed with the pallet as one or stuck to it ? They look even better as a block too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spud Posted June 2, 2013 Author Share Posted June 2, 2013 thx guys, there printed individually then i just glue them on a pallet, planning on getting them resin cast so i dont have to keep printing them, they take a little bit to keep cleaning up cheers Reece Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
