Frozen in Carbonite by Darth Vader, Han Solo has been traded half-way across the galaxy to ultimately serve you as a budget microcomputer!
My love of Star Wars brought me to remix these two excellent models into this stellar Raspberry Pi 2/B+ case! Many thanks to Geoffro & aurelius for the original models.
Here’s a time-lapse that includes my printing technique for this:
Print Settings
Rafts:
Doesn’t Matter
Supports:
Yes
Resolution:
Split: 0.200 for the case, 0.050 for Han Solo
Infill:
30% Fast-Honeycomb
Notes:
Printer: Makergear M2
Slicer: Simplify3D
Filament: Hatchbox Silver PLA 1.75mm
Settings:
Hotend: 210°C
Heated Bed: 70°C
Split: 200 microns for the case, 50 microns for Han Solo
Adhesion: gluestick on glass + thin layer of hairspray
Technique:
At the 30 second mark (in the video), I had the GCODE pause with this:
G28 X0; home x-axis
M0; pause
Then I flipped the upper section on top of the lower section for the extruder to print Han Solo; effectively avoiding using supports. This saved about an hour of printing and nearly half the material weight.
