Printed at 0.125mm layers with a 0.25mm nozzle in gold PLA. Turned out great! Turns out the gold PLA is translucent with such thin walls (0.3mm), and it looks great with a light inside as well. Really twinkles! and weighs next to nothing (only took 1.1m of filament).

Oh, yes! Merry lil’ Marvin looks awesome

So I woke up this morning and my printer gave me an early christmas present. Santa Marvin Printed on ColorFabb Translucent Red PLA @ 100 micron.

Nice one Ken! I really like the color. Are you going to put a christmas light in it, or just hang it in the tree?

[Luuk]

Check out that luminous idea from @kevtl! You can hook up your Christmas Marvin to some lights, and party like it’s 1999. See GIF in the images section.

ho ho ho, disco!

Thinking of attaching an LED & servo+arm to it so it “swings” or rocks left to right.

Cool print, Ken, and really nice photos as well! @ColorFabb should love this

Sadly, Makerware does not slice it correctly. It can’t print it hollow, and also leaves some voids on the surface. Which slicer do you recommend that I try for this?

@Luuk would you be able to help out with this?

[Luuk]

Hi @smallnetd,

I’m not an expert on Makerware, but i’m sure you can modify your profile to have it print 0% infill. Any makerbot experts? @jwwirtz?
