Batman Batarang

myminifactory

Inspired by Punished Props, i hand drew this batarang using Autodesk 123D Design. I drew the right side first, then mirrored the second half. i inset a snap hinge to connect the two. and whala. Printed on a Form1+ The first prints (first 3 photos) were just the Top left and the  Top right halfs and took about 4 hours each. I then revisted the model and mirrored and merged the two seperate Top halfs to their equal Bottom halfs and printed them both at the same time; As you can see in the towering post-print photos of the two halfs standing on the build plate. Normally you would want to print your models on a Form1+ at a 45 degree angle, but since i knew these were light and that the resin would esaily pore off the batarang blades and no place on the model for the resin to get gunk up, i pulled the trigger and set to a low quality print knowing.  I have some shop work to do on the new full 3d prints, espcialy on the connection grooves. But i wanted to share the current progress and will update the results soon!
