Elder Wand

thingiverse

This is an elder wand I made for yule ball at University of Washington. It was my first 3D printing project and my first time using Fushion 360. I asked my roommate how 3D printer works and she said I could figure it out by myself. But when I got to the printing room, I had no idea how to use anything. So I want to thank all the people that helped me. The wand turned out really nice! Just want to share with you guys! The wand is divided into three parts(elder wand is 38.1 cm, so it's too long to fit into the printer). I used simplify 3D to adjust the size and the orientation, and I can print all three parts at once. After printing, I glued all the parts together with super glue. I was inspired by this design http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1069671 and this design http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1089917, but I decided to make my own design. Print Settings Printer Brand: FlashForge Printer: Creator Pro Rafts: No Supports: Doesn't Matter Resolution: 1.75 mm Infill: possibly 50 % Notes: FYI: my temperature setting for the plate is 45 degrees, 230 degrees for the nozzle, and it took about 2.5 hours to make the wand. The color of my filament is gold(although it looks brown). Post-Printing Overview and Background
