Wow, is this available to download?!
@Luis_E_Rodriguez this is for sale
Where are you selling them Sergey?
@Mark_MARKSE_Emery http://3dprint_toys.storenvy.com
@Sergey_3dpicasso_Kol what slicer are you using?
@Anton_G Cura
Thanks for the link. Which licence will you be using, will we get an STL we can scale, slice and print multiple times or will it print direct to our printers via a web based print host? I tried the latter for one model, it was problematic to say the least.
@Mark_MARKSE_Emery finished already printed plastic model
@Sergey_3dpicasso_Kol Do you have any Tipps for me? I habe Problems with retraction, i.e. if cura starts retracting a lot, it under extrudes in my UM2
@Anton_G the language barrier, use forum Ultimaker.com
Half the fun would be letting the kids see it being printed for them, in the material and colour of their choice. It would also spark interest in design and construction in some. Maybe you can consider selling models and licensing the design with a CC non-commercial license?
@Mark_MARKSE_Emery in the future, when will I receive a steady income from the sale my works. I’ll post the source code or 3d model for free. You can order my design and development of 3D toys for your child :).
How about you do one new design that you give away for free. With the license you stipulate that for every one the end user prints they either print another for a child in care, or make a donation to a children’s charity. If that doesn’t get your name out there in the media and to the attention of 3D film makers and toy manufacturers I’d be shocked. You could start soon, make it a background project for completion a month or two before Christmas 2015. “Look out Santa, @Sergey_3dpicasso_Kol and his helpers has a gift for every boy…” You could do a second design that looks more female, but still a kick-ass action figure.
One other bit of advice, set up your own firm if you can, be your own boss. Sell or license your work to others but don’t let others dictate what you do and when.
@Mark_MARKSE_Emery In next year will be a number of free models. in http://www.myminifactory.com/users/sergeykolesnik
