One of my students really wanted this bolt from the movie Iron Giant.
It looked pretty daunting with all those curves and overhangs but I thought it would be a good test for the new printer.

The model comes in 3 pieces.  Make sure you add your rafts and supports for these!
 After about a day of printing, all the parts were done and come out quite nicely!
It is quite a beautiful piece straight out of Thingiverse.  My student wants to paint it but I think it looks good just the way it is!
