Description

I had some red and white plastic and I thinking what I should make for my first dual extrusion model. This was the obvious choice for me, because the Amiga was my favorite computer. The Amiga was where I first started 3D modeling using Imagine, and then Lightwave.

Instructions

Merge the two .stl files. I printed it with 15% infill and 1 extra shell, and a build platform temperature of 110C. Glue or solvent weld the two halves of a sphere together to make a ball, or leave separated for a cool coconut style instrument.

I love it and so miss my Commodore Amiga 500 as I could program that thing into the ground and back (100% 68000 ASM).  Was so advanced for its time.

That brings back long lost memories!

Finally a justification for dual colour printing! Cool idea and very nice print.
