How accurate is your Tina2 ?
By Anar on 21/01/2022, 16:47 - Tutorials
Like any other 3D printers, it's important to spend some time at calibrating your Tina2 if you want to be sure to print accurate dimensional parts.
In this tutorial I'm gonna show you how to do this. Of course this calibrating procedure can also be used for any other 3D printer... and not just our beloved Tina2!
So if your printer doesn't give you accurate dimensional prints, go ahead and read further.

Let there be light !
By Anar on 16/01/2022, 17:12 - Weedo Tina2
In my previous post I introduced you to the Weedo Tina2 3D printer on which I allready performed a few improvements.
Among them I told you that I will probably add some light inside it. Because I'd like to be able to better see my models being printed in dark situations or at night time.
So let me show you how this can be done in this very easy to follow tutorial...

Tina2 first hacks
By Anar on 15/01/2022, 05:28 - Weedo Tina2
After my very good first tests prints on the Weedo Tina2 3D printer, I started to see how I could improve it.
And here are my first hacks and mods.

60€ 3D Printer
By Anar on 14/01/2022, 17:03 - Weedo Tina2
WTF !!!
Is this a joke ?
And what can we expect for that price ?
Let me introduce you to the Weedo Tina2 3D printer...

Stan Lee 3D print + post-processing
By Anar on 20/12/2021, 16:22
Many people think that FDM 3D printing is not well adapted at producing nice and detailed 3D sculptures because of the visible layers.
Let me show you here that with some post-processing (sanding and painting) you can achieve very fine detailed sculptures.

Rocket3F : The Missing Tutorials Part2
By Anar on 17/11/2021, 17:37 - Tutorials
In this Rocket3F tutorial I will cover Morph Target and Morph Brush.
You probably need Rocket3F Pro version to be able to follow this tutorial.

Rocket3F Soccer Ball

This is a small subdivision modeling tutorial on how to make a soccerball in R3F.
No text. Only screenshots with comments.

Rocket3F : The Missing Tutorials
By Anar on 14/11/2021, 17:58 - Tutorials
Rocket3F is a great subdivision modeling software but it lacks tutorials.
I went thru all the R3F and Nvil tutorials and found out that several functionalities are hardly covered... when they are.
So I decided to write a few tutorials that I call "The Missing Tutorials".
They will be useful for me as a reminder (as I had hard time to figure out how some of these tools are working), but should also be useful to others including Nvil users.

3Dbuilder Pros & Cons
By Anar on 12/05/2020, 15:09 - Software
I love SketchUp and use it for most of my 3D projects.
But there are tasks that I prefer to do in some other softwares.
Microsoft's 3Dbuilder is one that I use very often.

Screaming Hand 3D sculpture V2
By Anar on 07/05/2020, 14:59 - Print
Almost 7 years ago I published my first version of the "Sceaming hand" Santa Cruz's emblematic design.
And honestly when I look back at it I think it doesn't deserve the more than 250 likes I received on Thingiverse (at the time of writing).
It's now time to make a better one...

Printing "Christ Unlimited" (makkink of)
By Anar on 02/05/2020, 14:52 - Print
This is another post about printing something BIG.
By "BIG" here I mean a long print time and how it can drastically be reduced by having a good print strategy.
Or how a 12h print can be reduced down to 7h without any compromise on print quality.

Printing a BIG Bonzini trophy
By Anar on 19/10/2019, 14:43 - Print
This is the first big print I did back in 2018 as a trophy for a table-soccer tournament.
It was printed in 3 parts on a Ultimaker2 Extended printer, glued back and painted.
In this post I will show you the different steps.

Printing something BIG again
By Anar on 13/10/2019, 17:33 - Print
This is the next example in my "Printing something BIG" serie.
I could have printed this 36 cm tall object in one go. My printer (a Creality CR10S Pro) is big enough.
But cutting it in parts saves printing time and material.
So once again it's something I strongly recommend.
Printing something BIG (Makkink of)
By Anar on 13/10/2019, 14:23 - Print
Printing big objects is something I wanted to do since a long time.
But 3d printing is such a slow process that it discouraged me until now (I have some free spare time).
Still it's important to plan ahead to reduce printing time to a minimum and avoid support structures as much as you can.

Return of the Teddies
By Anar on 14/05/2019, 14:10 - Software
SmoothTeddy is a old (2003) small 3D sketching app developped by Takeo Igarashi that can produce simple organic shapes.
It's UI is minimalist and kid oriented, making it a perfect 3D modeling toy for children.
The drawback is... there is no way to export your Teddies.
Really no way ? Let's have a look...

MagicaVoxel and R3F together
By Anar on 13/05/2019, 14:00 - Software
Recently Frenchy Pilou (no need to introduce) told me about MagicaVoxel, a free voxel modeler. I was curious so I had a look.
There are people making incredible stuff out of it !
But how does it behave with R3F ?
Can it be useful in the modeling process and how to go from one software to the other ?
