What Do You Do With An Idea? Author: Donald L. Merand What Is It? It's the Idea, inspired by What Do You Do With An Idea? by Kobi Yamada and Mae Besom. The body was modeled in 123D Sculpt+, and the crown was modeled in Onshape. I combined them in Simplify3D, and have saved that combined model, which is what I printed, to this repository as an STL. Print Setup I found this prints best at full infill. Since I used Simplify3D, I was able to print the legs and the crown at 0.15mm resolution, full infill, and the body of the idea at 0.2mm resolution, 10% infill. I didn't need any supports to print this, but I used a 4-shell 2-layer brim around the feet to make sure that it stuck to the print plate. I printed mine in Type A Machines' ProMatte, which, as it turns out, is an excellent filament for post-processing! I recommend setting up your printer using their ProMatte Cura Profile Settings as a guideline. The 3rd and 4th photos I included here are from before I sanded the model.
