I have been playing with full spectrum in Snapmaker Orca for my @snapmaker.bsky.social U1 to create a realistic stone/terracotta effect on my latest vase. I've used a combo of a 50/50 mix and a gradient with a rough surface to create the little blips.

Loving my @snapmaker.bsky.social U1. I wouldn't have tried printing my tiny dog as a dalmatian previously because of the filament waste and print time. With the U1 the print time is slashed and: next to no waste 😊

My new String Art is called Not Today. Its printed in three parts with the bench and tree visible through the rain. stls and 3mf: makerworld.com/en/models/29...

This is my Ribbon Vase, it has a reservoir for water at the bottom and a stem guide at the top. It can hold either a single stem or maybe a small bunch of flowers. stl: than.gs/m/1561963

These are the watchers, the first in a series of Oddlings I'm designing. They slot over your monitor and watch you work. I hope you like them. 😁 STL: makerworld.com/en/models/28...

They seem gentle. I haven’t confirmed this yet. STL: makerworld.com/en/models/28...

First multicolour string print on my new @snapmaker U1 and its done a fantastic job. This is my sunburst string art printed in 3 colours. 😊 I love the mottling effect you get from certain angles.

So I have my new @snapmaker.bsky.social U1 up and running! Now lets print some strings! 😆

I made an Easter infill basket with some little bunnies on. No supports, no colour changes. Great as an Easter gift filled with chocolate eggs. 🥰 stls and 3mf: makerworld.com/en/models/25...

I made an Easter basket with some little 3d print bunnies on using my infill technique. 🥰 No supports, no colour changes. Easy as! stls and 3mf: makerworld.com/en/models/25...

I also played with the photo to see what it would look like white on black.🥰

Not long until F1 starts again and to celebrate I have created this iron-on transfer. The car silhouette is created using all the F1 tracks and can be ironed onto a t-shirt or other clothing. stl and 3mf: than.gs/m/1524621

This dogs string art has been on my wish list for a long time and I'm so glad to have finished it. 😊 The frame prints separately so it can be printed in a single colour (Blue) or with a single colour swap (Black). Stls and 3mfs: than.gs/m/1513382

A cute little geometric Hearts Bowl for Valentines Day 🥰 stls and 3mf: makerworld.com/en/models/23...

This is my Valentines Swing Carousel, so all the little hearts can have some fun 🥰 Stls and 3mfs here: than.gs/m/1506058

Not long until the Lunar New Year festivities begin. 2026 is The Year of the Horse and this year I thought I'd combine a quilling style with my signature strings. The design prints without supports and can be printed on a single colour printer.😊 stls and 3mf: makerworld.com/en/models/22...

This Silhouette Ramadan Calendar has been great fun to design. You add a slide to the picture each day and watch the scene gradually come together. All the parts are quick and easy to print and can be printed on a single colour printer. 😊 stls and 3mfs: than.gs/m/1501459

A little Santa Pot to put goodies in. It can be scaled up and down. It also looks nice as a single colour print.😊 stls and 3mfs: than.gs/m/1472398

Sometimes I absolutely love when things don't print quite as you expect. Here is some serendipitous art 😊

Is Die Hard a Christmas Movie? I think so! Thus we need a Die Hard Advent Calendar right? But what happens to Hans on the final day?😲 Perfect for any Die Hard Fans. stls and 3mfs: makerworld.com/en/models/20...

This is my Ice bowl, created using superimposed tessellation patterns and, after much trial and error, printing nicely without supports. 😊 stl: than.gs/m/1468049

A bit more work on a new string technique. This time using it to create a glowing effect on my heart strings model. #Ilove3dprinting

Halloween Infill Spiders Lamp😊 stls and 3mf: makerworld.com/en/models/19...

This is my swirl bowl. It's designed using multiple tori, each one twisted and turned a little compared to the previous one. stls and 3mf: makerworld.com/en/models/19... Its printed in the gorgeous @cookiecad Sunrise Rainbow PLA: amzn.to/4qm4rFL

I've been playing with a new string idea, I'm a bit obsessed! 😆

A Bowl of Bats that can be printed in a single colour or with 2 or 3 contrasting colours. 🦇🦇🦇 Perfect for handing out candy this Halloween! stls and 3mf: than.gs/m/1441212

I printed my skull infill bowl on my @bambulabglobal.bsky.social H2D using GITD filament for the skulls. Look at those teeth! 💀💀💀

I had a request for an infill style bowl with ducks on. I decided to try out using the infill for the subject this time rather than the bowl itself. I used 30% cubic infill which made the duck families stand out nicely.😊 stls and 3mf: makerworld.com/en/models/18...

A new piece of string art for train lovers. 😊 stl and 3mfs: than.gs/m/1432074

For all you cat lovers out there, this is a fun and easy to print cat racing game. Hold your cat at the top and release to race, or balance them, like I did at the end of the video, and tap the base to start the race. 🐈😊 stls and 3mf: makerworld.com/en/models/17...
