3D Printing Disasters

fustini

An interesting post by Adafruit this morning:

Have Epic 3D Print Fails to Share with the Flickr Group “The Art of 3D Print Failure”?

 

When 3D prints go wrong and lessons from failure.


Inspired by a blog post from RichRap, this group is meant as a show and tell of the prints that went wrong.


Add a description of what happened and your thoughts and analysis and hopefully others will comment on how best to avoid the problems in the future.


 

The Flickr group is here:

http://www.flickr.com/groups/3d-print-failures/rules/

 

Anyone have any glorious fails themselves?

 

cheers,

  • Hi Drew,

     

    Your post gave me a great idea for a Ben Heck Show.

    How about a 3D Printer supervisor?  Set up a camera and maybe an RPi to monitor the 3D build.  If the printer deviates from the plan, it can stop the print and alert the owner for corrective measures.  That way you would not lose the whole build.

     

    Just a thought,
