Here are some pictures:

Early on, printing some support:

Quite a bit more support:

Even more support:

https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-K7vNhEONawc/UK1uuvWtXOI/AAAAAAAAApU/U0KsiRAt_wE/s1152/IMG_4400.JPG
Finished!

Most support removed, just needs quite a bit of work sanding it back, with another new piston printed (expect to see lots of engine parts in our future).

And underneath the top of the mustroom:

Next time we would print something like that in 2 pieces, but this really was a test to see what the solidoodle could do, and its really impressed us.

Doing a very ambitious print using Repetier now, after adjusting the bed a lot better. Exciting times, I have 2 3D artists in this house, it's going to be fun big_smile

The bottom of the cube got a bit munged, but it was the first print, so still happy, rest of it looks fine.
