the bugs are modeled and this is attempt (and failure) #3 of trying to get them printed. i decided rather than going the route of making a mold, i just wanted to print the finished piece. attempts 1 & 2 of printing were made using the ceramic filament, and though #2 technically has yet to fail as of right now, winslow didn’t sound too confident about it when i asked earlier.
attempt #3 (photo) was sent underway using a different printer this afternoon, using a granite-infused PLA. the filament was too brittle and ended up snapping about an hour after i left the fab lab. a monitor and i are going in there later tonight to investigate further and discuss options going forward.
