Epic insane 3D printing vacuum forming mutant adventure- Part 1

 So I saw a overturned vending machine. Kids these days... Little did I know, it was a sign of the overturnedness of the day yet to come...
 Here is that awesome Dan guy, helping me with the 3D printer like a boss (material addition boss extrude, that is...).

The resultant part looks shweet as. It will form a base  of which I will use to create moulds. I will then cast resin into those moulds to form a clear cast resin lamp head...


 When vacuum forming the part didn't go well. It got too hot and melted/ dis-formed the 3D printed part. The plastic was also impossible to get off of the 3D printed part without destroying them all.
