3D Print

AmesCreative made it's first 3D print!  An Up! Plus 2  3D Printer on loan from a friend allowed me to print out an idea I had for organizing my spray paint cans to a wall. Once again, Rick Rob Studio provided CAD design and 3D printing support to make an ABS plastic clip that can hold cans or bottles to a wall. Two countersunk screw holes were added for mounting. The first prototype was a little thin and didn't hold very well so Rick beefed up the design and got it just right on the second print. It has a very satisfying "snap" sound when you insert the can into the clip. One clip takes about 90 minutes to print. 3D printing is all about trial and error.  I see a lot of trials and errors in my 3D printing future. For now we are building 5"x 5"x 5" objects or parts in ABS plastic.
