    What Should The Peachy Printer Team Print?

    Well Now that the printer is working better I would love to here from all you fine people Here at 3d print board .. What do you think we should print?
    Not making any promises as to what we will try, but we are printing more often than we used to.

    Be sure to suggest things that have Licences that allow us to use and modify them, such as the Creative Commons Attribution Licence
    Also dont be scared to suggest really hard things

    Amazing update!!

    These are just ideas of neat things to get people's attention (that require symmetry but maybe not accuracy since I remember accuracy as being something that needed work on)

    -Glasses frames (no lenses) with the hinges and all.

    -A nut and a bolt (but that is something rather common)

    -a part for itself! (like a drip valve holder, or something of the base peachy model)

    - something that moves: a pinwheel fan!

    These are just ideas, I will not be disappointed if they are not chosen!

    I'm super excited to see what is next!

    I'd love to see something with some size, maybe 15cm+ tall. With some intricate details, just to see the big picture so to speak. Maybe also some kind of bottle, with a screw on lid, to see dimensional accuracy. I'd like to see some strength testing of printed objects as well.

    I think those will show off the abilities of the printer, and the kind of things you can do with it.

    This would be cool. http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:191925
    Snowflake Icosahedron Ornament

    It's supposed to be printed in pieces and hooked together, but I'd love to see you print it preassembled.

    Also.... tis the season.. ;-)

    I don't think the peachy could print this but I'd be interested to see where it fails.

    Well, I think it might be time for Emmett's Gear Bearing.
    The gear bearing it pretty much iconic of print-in-place machines, and if the Peachy can do it, then it can do just about anything.
    And another idea, Andreas Bastian's Mesostructured Cellular Material. It's even customizable in Thingiverse.

    I don't ask for easy things, now do I?

    The Peachy has always had examples of small intricate things. I think perhaps it's time to show off a big thing. A big intricate thing would be better. The snowflake idea is good imho, Or maybe a canoe

    I realize in hindsight that I asked for a gear, when in the update, it was pretty much explicitly mentioned that gearing won't be very likely to work on the Peachy for now...

    I really would like to see an example of the Mesomaterial printing on the Peachy, since it's a complex pattern for which precision is more necessary than accuracy. It would be a good candidate for side-wall anchoring also, since it is well suited as a membrane inside a frame. Also, it would help to see if there's some kind of variance in the accuracy over the print area, if there is it might come out looking like some wierd biological growth, otherwise, it might just be a little compressed in one or another direction (which might have interesting properties, actually).
