Star Trek TNG Style Comm Badge by worldgnat Oct 31, 2009

Featured Thing!

Description

At last, the symbol of Star Trek is on Thingiverse! I created this because a friend of mine wanted to dress up as a character from Star Trek, and didn't have the appropriate gear. The clothes are pretty easy to find, but the badge isn't so simple to get a hold of... or at least it wasn't.

The stl seems to skeinforge weirdly, which probably has something to do with the way I joined the two pieces of the badge. Having printed it I can attest to the fact that it prints very well, despite the perilous overhang, which leaves plenty of room for any small electronic bits you might want to insert and try to make the badge do something cool.

Sorry for the rendered image - I haven't printed one out for myself yet.

I have every intention of doing just that... eventually...

dare you to wear it on a red shirt.

There was a time when very, very few 3D files were uploaded with pics of finished prints-- now it's become almost a matter of course! I wouldn't feel any shame in uploading without printing, though: part of the beauty of Thingiverse is that designers and makers can reach each other through designs, whether the designer is able to print or not.

Yeah, I meant to, I just clicked the wrong file... twice. I've uploaded the stl now. Thanks.

you should upload your STL file instead of the gcode. many people have different settings and the gcode will only be good for one type of 3D printer.
