PolyRocks // Climbing Holds

myminifactory

My second set of rock climbing holds modeled in VR. I printed these in Carbonyte by Rigid.ink, a carbon fiber nylon 12 mix that provides a great texture and just the right balance of hardness and flexibility to make pretty awesome climbing holds. Matterhackers also sells a similar product here (somewhat more affordable, but both cost more than standard filaments). Each hold is a two part file designed to be printed with two processes so the central core that the bolt goes through can be printed at 100% infill, while the rest is printed at a lower infill to save material. Check out my video to see just how I did that!   The holds will probably need to be rotated in the slicer because I couldn't easily rotate them without misaligning the parts.. my bad!
