Love that slomo through shot
Proper destruction
So leading on from IG's suggestion.
I've rolled out the old abs.
.abs is a horrible plastic for 3d printing.
It's designed to shrink after extrusion - perfect for injection moulding - and practically useless for printing.
So as I did not know better when I started 3d printing, I bought a lot of it.
I soon learned that just about everything else was better, and the abs -which also stinks of burning plastic while printing - has been sitting on a shelf for the last 8 years or so.
Perfect for things destined for destruction.
If I run it overnight the smell does not matter
Apparently I need 3, a big one a medium one and a small one.
I did point out I had to hit them with a slung missile, but apparently I still need three lol
The medium one is now painted and the big one ran overnight and is now drying after painting.
Still got the small one to make and some other secret stuff
You can see why abs is so bad for 3dprinting, because it shrinks as it cools, unless you print it in a heated enclosure, it warps and cracks like a total bastard !
But for this purpose, that does not matter
Other than the cracks, those are damn good pumpkins
But they will have to die !
Abs is fully recyclable, so no environments were harmed during the making of these pumpkins.
I've even tried to give the abs filament away over the years, to no avail. So to finally gave a use for it is fantastic
