3D Printed Articulated Dragon Toy For My Niece
My nieces out in Oregon found out that I have some 3D printers, so natually they made some orders, haha. My youngest niece apparently now has a dragon collection so she wanted me to print her a dragon. I found the design for this awesome articulated dragon on Thingiverse.com and printed it up using some special 2 toned silk PLA that I ordered for them. This is a popular thing to 3D print so I am glad to now feel like an official printer by getting it made, haha.
The oldest niece wanted a toy iPhone so I found some designs for an iPhone 13 Pro Max replica and I also found some cool case designs for that phone, so I am going to make both of them a toy iPhone, so there is no arguing, lol. I am also going to print the oldest an articulated dolphin, because she loves them, so they are each getting something extra that they didn't expect. Each of them have a different color filament that I am going to be using so that each of their toys match.
I made some big moves in my 3D printing business by cashing out my trading account and buying a bunch of filament for my hydroponic product line, and a brand new Bambu Labs A1 Mini, which are really awesome machines! I am super excited for the upgrade coming to the Logical Labs!
Until next time...
Be cool, be real, and always abide!

"so I found some designs for an iPhone 13 Pro Max replica and I…" scaled it down 30% so the kids could hold it in there hands
This is what i was sure you were going to say.
Cool articulated toys are the most excellent thing for 3D printers to print.
And, you are actually going into 3D printing business?
I thought everyone could just 3D print it at home, so no one would buy anything.
Oh a scaled down version wouldn’t cut it. They know the real size, 😂
I am designing a whole line of hydroponic gear. There are many people that do this for a business. My best friend has a 6 figure a year 3D printing business making drone parts.
You think most people are going to get one? Most average people don’t know how to properly use a real iPhone much less getting into the nuances of 3D printing. Already talking with some stores about wholesale deals.
That is amazing!! the capacities of a 3d printer surprises me everyday. You can do your own toys!
Yep, Uncle Dude is now Santa Dude with his mechanical elves, 😂
