3D Printed "First Step On The Moon"
I thought this was such a cool 3D print. An avid 3D printing fan decided to use his Z310 3D printer with a layer height set at 0.083mm to 3D print the first step on the moon.
He started out with this original Nasa Image of Neil Armstrong's footprint.

From there he made the 44 year old image a 3D model using Meshlab as well as, as well as some awesome sculpting skills.

The final step was to 3D print the model, and then clean it up a bit. It took approximately 1 hour to print out:
