Description

This is a lithophane of the famous Mona Lisa (La Gioconda) by Leonardo da Vinci.

Instructions

When printed in FDM it's best to print on a side (upright) to benefit from the layer resolution, also PLA is better because of less warping. The one in the picture was printed upright in white PLA (0.15 mm layers) on a PP3DP Up! Plus. It's best to use opaque material like white or yellow, ABS is possible but will warp more because of the thin structure.

-->If people have a request for another lithophane (of any picture) just put it in the comments.

Well this one is probably too large, I never have trouble with Up! software slicing models (it's really fast). Other lithophanes I try to downsize a little for people without an Up printer ;-)

The software is ''custom built'' by someone I know.

Photo vcarve and aspire by any chance? I have a joes 4x4 hybrid.
Hey Im having troubles getting it to slice in slicer. I'm a noob with 3d. Any tips for slicing this?

Could do it in blender just as well: http://wiki.blender.org/index....

It was made in custom CNC software, CNC milling often uses pictures or patterns to import for milling but it's also nice for 3d printing.

How was this model produced?
