Today I sliced all of the bits to go into the pond. I printed the pond at 100% but all of the flora and fauna at 50%. It made some really small things!

I was surprised at how well the fish and turtles etc came out. To be honest the Lilly pads struggled a bit at 50%
I shoved some of them into the smaller pond too…

I am really chuffed at how well they look. I have actually bought some resin so that I can add ‘water’ to these. It is so long since I have done anything like this it will be interesting to give it a go. I am also going to add some to the paddies and if there is anything left then I can make some canal pieces up too.
I had a print failure today. I started printing some building pieces for my mates birthday and for some reason I had a failed print. One of the end pieces came partially adrift and was threatening spaghetti monster everywhere. Now in hindsight,as it had been just under 2 hours, I could have actually kept it going instead of cancelling the print. The piece hadn’t fully come adrift. I could have done a rescue ‘hold it in place’ rescue so that the rest could have printed…. ah well hindsight is a great thing.
I must say the ponds do look interesting. Looking forward to seeing them completed.

They look great- with the addition of the resin it will look superb.

See, we’re all following this keenly since we don’t see many people print ponds and aquatic life! 🙂 I think it all looks excellent and am really looking forward to seeing the village, shrine, ponds and, of course, figures, all in action! 🙂

Those extra little details are going to make the ponds look great so you have every right to be chuffed. Can’t wait to see more progress on the ponds!
