Makertober Day 28: Printing Boxes

Some people say that you shouldn’t use your 3D printer to make boxes for things. I disagree. Sure, a box is quite large and takes ages to print. But its not as if you have to spend that time yourself. Once you’ve set the printer off you can leave it to get on with it. Although I do still find the process fascinating to watch. Above you can see the output of my design which I think is fairly tidy. I could spend some time fiddling with settings to get the print better, but this is not actually something that the user will see.

The reverse side, which is where the print was built up on my glass bed, is nicely shiny.
