Like shirts, pants, and sandwiches, 3D printing models also go through “fashion trends” too! Some models become incredibly popular, and soon EVERYBODY that owns a printer will be printing them. Bender (from Futurama), is a nice example. This Bender Model was being printed by ALL the big 3D Printers (Joel Telling, Maker’s Muse, etc…), so of course I had to print one too. Mine turned out relatively nicely, with some slight layering visible (due to the .2mm layer height). My printer also struggled slightly with the overhang beneath Bender’s eyes, but overall this model turned out decently!
The Print Settings:
