Description

Owl statue... good for scaring away pigions and crows.

Instructions

Print and paint to desired colors

Print out both this file and the companion Owl (Owl Statue Facing Left) They would make a great pair of matching Owls. One facing to the right and one facing to the left. Owls mate for life so you need to print out a pair of them!!

I used the model to test my Ultimaker on a longer print. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...

Thanks! FYI I posted a video of it printed with wood at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v... 
Also some hi-def pictures at http://betterprinter.blogspot....

FWIW, the two side by side owls I uploaded were printed using acceleration at 120mm/s and 0.1mm layer height. Each took about two hours forty-four minutes to print. The owl on the left used default SF50 settings, including perimeter slowdown of 50% and 1.0 mm retraction (reversal). The one on the right also used default SF50 settings BUT then perimeter slowdown and retraction were disabled and altshell and firmware deprime were instead used. Both came out quite nice.

Little detail: the owls are scaled to 50% of full size.

Really nice and smooth sidewall quality.

Any chance you could share your slice settings?

OP said s/he didn't make it, and that they think it was done on one of the new Replicator machines a few comments down.

I like this model

Looks perfect! ^^

Was there another, smaller version of this? I'm watching it print now and it looks like it's going to be a lot bigger than what I see in the pictures - probably end up 150mm or so tall..

Yes, it is quite large. I scaled it down to half size.

Which machine did you make this on?

I'm not sure. I didn't make it. I believe it was made on one of the new Replicator machines.

Owls rule! I'll print this and add it to my collection of owls

BUBO! ...wait, no, not quite.

Nice detail, tho. How'd you model it?

I thought it was Bubo too!

what a wonderful looking owl! my girlfriend and sister will be majorly disappointed if i don't print this for them.
