I actually had a fun idea if I can find a clear filament: I want to print a ship in a bottle. Not sure if any filaments for my FDM printer would come out clear enough tho. It has to be transparent enough to see the ship inside, obviously.
There are ways to make clear filament more transparent if i remember correctly. Some had to do with coating and some with heating. Maybe you find a way, good luck :)

We have all downloaded the most famous boat of all time. And it doesn't even float right...

Nice boat. You’ll need to print some fish to catch.

Tugs are cool. And you, by extension are now cool for having printed one.

I'm gonna assume that winch works based on the way it's mounted on that panel. Any other functions?
PixeIOrange@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 43d
Yes, it works. The Lights work too and everything (+ motor and rudder) are RC

Sweet, I suspected as much. Nice work bro. Is it based on a real boat?
PixeIOrange@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 43d
No, its just based on this: https://www.printables.com/model/531618-rc-boat-model
