I have the main design done, which took probably 100 hours of design work. I have to get around to chopping it into pieces that fit onto my printer, then separating the dualstrusion parts of each puzzle piece, and printing them.
The final board will still have to have some painting done, to make the routes color-coded. Plus I'll have to print a new set of destination tickets. But the end result will be a real wower, I think. The 3D train stations are a particularly impressive touch.
]]>Mechanical clock - I'd expect there's likely already a couple on thingiverse (haven't been game to type it in as I want to design my own mechanism). Would be pretty good challenge just to print, and there's design opportunity in even just customising the face, case, etc.
That sounds challenging what with layer inconsistencies, material expansion contraction, ect. Let me know how it goes.
31 things in May - attempt to post 1 thing daily on thingiverse in May. This is a project to increase my design work and speed as well as brainstorming.
I'd like to try the same thing in June, I've gotten to the point where I spend less time thinking about how to make the software do something than designing. Need to build on that.
