A little bit of an experiment this week.
I have been seeing a fair bit of pebble painting going on around the internet so I thought that I could see what I could do with that concept in conjunction with my CoLiDo 3D Compact printer.
Read on to see how it all turned out.

Hallo you. Just a brief one for this week’s 3D Thursday to let you know that I now have an account over on My Mini Factory where I will be uploading some of my 3D designs for you to make use of.
On this website, you can grab the files free and feel safe in the knowledge that they have been 3D print tested, twice!Read More »
In a bid to expand my 3D design and printing capabilities I have this week been learning a new piece of software and thought that it would be nice to share this journey with you.Read More »
When I last left this project in 3D Thursday 9 – An Idea Hatches! I had made the ornate box and was about to decorate it.
Ready to see what happened next?
Ever had a brain plop that turns out to be a really good idea? Believe me, when I say, I am really proud of this week’s 3d printed plop!
Phew! What a week! Defo glad to be home and cracking on with more work.
In the meantime I didn’t get to show you the finished napkin ring that I made with the CoLiDo 3d pen the other day so, guess what I’m showing you in this post…?
Right! I’ve had a 3D printing pen for as long as I’ve had a 3D printer but sadly haven’t really had much time to play so I cleared a small window in my diary and sat myself down with what I hope would be as exciting as the 3D printer.
What did I discover? Read on to find out …
Watcha me old muckas. Bit of a quickie bonus post for the 3D Thursday series today as I keep harping on about these free 3D design software programs and never really getting you the chance to show them.
For that there reason I have cobbled together a quick video to show you the super simple Microsoft 3D builder program in the hope that it dispells the myth that design for 3D printing has to involve complex and really hard to master software.
This week I was having a wander and on passing my local charity shop, noticed an analogue alarm clock in the window so stopped for a closer look. As I looked closer a light shone down from the heavens and a chorus of inspirational voices burst forth …
If you don’t think I’ve finally lost it then please do read on to find out what happened next …
Crumbs, another week gone by? Now if only I could print me some extra days!
In the meantime I will have to settle for printing some fabulous inclusions for projects that I am working on.
Got a cool one to share with you today.
Hello again. My foray into 3D design and printing continues and I thought that it was about time for my naughty sense of humour to make a little impact on the projects that I have been creating.
Just one more in this mini series of posts about my first steps in 3d printing – and quite a simple one too.
Been having another play with the CoLiDo 3d Printer and have come up with a couple of variations from a bust design that I found online.
Fancy a look?
Don’t worry, it’s the classical statue kind of bust – not the other kind.
Well hello there and thank you for stumbling up to my little corner of the blog-o-verse. How are you?
Ready for Part 2 of My First Ever Steps in 3D Printing?
Hope you are as that’s what this post is about …
Well now, I’ve been deliberating, cogitating and pondering about getting myself into 3D printing for some time.
Is it just another use for my bank account or will it actually change the way I craft? It’s a bit like a cliff hanger right at the start of the post isn’t it?!
Thankfully I shall answer both questions after first telling you about my first ever steps in 3D printing …
