Smaller nozzles
Posted: June 5th, 2017, 4:10 pm
I've been testing the smaller nozzles and have just finished my latest Braq dragon.
The one at the back is the full size one printed with a 0.4mm nozzle in Faberdashery 'BlingBlingGold'
The cream one is printed at 50% with a 0.25mm nozzle in Faberdashery 'Glowbug yellow'.
And at the front the small one is printed at 35% with the 0.15mm nozzle in Faberdashery 'Orange Fizz' a slightly translucent filament. There is a standard nozzle in the front for scale as well.
Now I'm looking for a suitable filament to test the 0.1mm nozzle, at 25%.
Although I dont think it will be fully articulated, trying to get the elastic through those small holes in the parts was difficult enough in the 35% one, it was a bit like trying to get a worm back into its hole, trying to thread a very small wire though and get it to turn through a right angle and push through so that it could then be used to pull through the elastic was not the easiest.
The neck and tail were ok it was the wings and legs that were testing.
