Gold Pan
by pandelume, published
Description
Notes:
1) These are fairly large, so a heated build platform might help prevent warping.
2) The outer overhang is 45 degrees, so it should print without support, but I haven\'t tested it.
If anyone produces any gold with these, please post pictures.

view allJust wanted to say thanks for this design. I am a member of the local (Indiana) GPAA, and for the last meeting of the year I reduced the size of the pan down to about 1 inch in length, and used them as decorative tops for cupcakes and it went over very well.
When reducing the size of the pan you lose the back ridges completly, but the front ridges still make it look very much like a gold pan.

Pandelume, I have a question/concern in regards to the license type you chose to select for this object.
In your comments you are encouraging people to print the object off, and to utilize the pan to pan for gold. However you selected the non-commercial license. I successfully printed one of the 4in pans but destroyed the object after realising you used the non-commercial license.
Gold is "real" money, therefore if an individual were to use this gold pan to pan for gold, they would be using the pan for commercial purposes which would be a violation of the non-commercial clause of the license you selected for this object.
Would you mind changing this objects license from non-commercial to share alike, so I can print some of these out to give to students after I teach them how to pan for gold with my Keene gold pans?

I dropped in some of my raw gold that I sluiced/panned from my last prospecting trip to the south central Rockies in Colorado for the picture. Yes, there is still Gold in them thar hills!
I am teaching some students how to pan for gold this weekend, so I will be printing a couple of these out and giving them away to the kido's. I will post a picture of the 4in riffled pan once it is done printing. I'll drop some of my raw gold in it for fun so folks can see how the Gold contrasts with the pan. So far the print is going very well on my LulzBot AO-100.
