From Imaginary to Real World for Real

Knowing the full process, it's time do make the part that will hold the camera stand for real.

First we need some quick measurements,so we can call it engineering instead of art:



Then some modelling:

 

Then proofing and fixing the model:






And finally, setting up and printing:





Two parts, two slicing methods, to see which one works better. First one without support beams and the second one with. The hollowed out back part held better shape with support beams (not being squished by gravity), but other then that, was about the same.

And of course, the final product:


Support beams removed and rough edges sanded. Now we're ready for the next plane upgrade!
