3d Printed Nautilus

3d Printed Nautilus

Nov 10

 

Found a great model of the Nautilus from 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea on Thingiverse.

 

Decided to make this one for myself.

 

Printed out all the parts on my Monoprice Select v2 3d printer.

 

 

 

Joined and smoothed all the parts.

 

 

 

 

A couple pictures of it done.

 

 

 

It’s a little over 17 inches long from nose to tail.

 

 

 

Aaaand of course I added LEDs so it lights up.

 

 

 

This model came out great and looks right at home on the mantle with our other Disney collectibles.

As I’ve mentioned before, my shop wears many hats.

 

While I specialize in restoration work, I also do some prop work too.

 

My son is a huge comic book and Super Hero movie fan.

 

So I put the 3D printer to work and made an Iron Man Arc Reactor prop to give to him for his birthday.

 

Here’s a pic displaying all the 3d printed parts-n-pieces:

 

 

 

Here are a couple pictures of it fully assembled and done:

 

 

 

Here are a couple pics of it plugged in and all lit up:

 

 

 

My son was absolutely thrilled to now have his very own Arc Reactor to add to his extensive action figure collection.

Another prop project!

 

This one was a request for cones/ spikes for a movie project at Kent State University.

 

These were turned from a solid pine 4×4.

 

 

 

Here’s one of cones/ spikes fresh off the lathe:

 

 

 

Here are the rest before they were picked up:

 

 

 

 

As the holidays approach, the shop projects drop off a little so you know what that means…

 

It’s time to get ready for Christmas!!!!

My shop wears many hats.

 

 

Lately the theme here has been “props”.

 

 

Got a great opportunity to do some video editing work for a Haunted Mansion themed haunted house at Disney World’s Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground.

 

 

The customer needed videos set up so they could use them in their display to give a nod to the animated paintings in the Haunted Mansion attraction.

 

 

The following is a shot of all of the videos I edited and converted for them:

 

 

 

 

Here’s a link to a walk through of their haunted house a vlogger (grimmlifecollective) shot and posted up on YouTube —> The Haunted Mansion Campsite

 

 

A lot of work goes into putting this on. They did a great job, and the campsite looks awesome.
