Coming up roses!

Post by mhackney »

I posted this Valentine's Box on thingiverse 3 years ago. A couple of weeks ago ProtoPasta announced a new limited edition Aromatic Rose HTPLA that I just had to have! There are only 36 spools of this stuff and it is made with real rose petals. It is really attractive too, kind of a soft rose/heather color. Well, here is the box in Aromatic Rose, how sweet it is!

nice. Now that's a stiff sniff.


Now that i have your attention, i see you'd doing some dual extrusion there, with im assuming a e3d cyclops. Is it possible to modify the cyclops hotend to accept a pt100 cartridge.

I may be colorblind (I was told all real men are...) but I don't see different filament colors here, do I?

The insert in the top is some shade of white instead of rose. However, if you look at the thingiverse link it's clearly printed as a separate piece. No dual-extrusion involved.

@QDeathstar, although I do dual and multiple extrusion, this model was not! The white part is a simple 1 layer thick insert that just snaps in place. We'd have to look at the schematics to be sure but I don't think there is room on the Cyclops for the cartridge.

@DeltaCon, not sure what you mean about different filament colors? This was printed with a single color - Aromatic Rose - and has a transparent insert.

@Eric - yes!

QDeathStar suggested that, by dual extrusion, there would be different colors in your print. But I recognized indeed that there was only a bit different shade because of the lower thickness of the ornament, despite my colorblindness ;-)
