Done / Completed 3D Printed (Full Sized) Indiana Jones Fertility Idol

[rgriesbeck]

I've had this (3D) sculpted for a while, just thought I'd see if anyone is interested in their very own (affordable) fertility idol. It's just under 9 inches in size, will be printed in 2 halves that you can easily glue and seam together.

As far as price, I need to do some calculations as there is close to 30 hours of printing for one of these, I'd like to keep the price under $100

Here's a few pics of mine, as usual I didn't have enough time to sand and finish it that well, but it's still very cool and gets a lot of attention.

If you think you'd like one, lemme know below:

Looks good! All depends on price for me...

Wouldn't it be an easier clean up if the seam was along the side instead of right down the middle?

It's all about printing without support structures. This way its a much cleaner print, with only one area to work on.

How is this compared to the original? I know you mentioned 9 inches but not sure on the size of the original. But I may be interested and may have a few friends as well pending the normal.

Sorry, was away on holidays, just got wifi. I feel it's real closs to the original. I don't have mine here to measure, but it's about 8 inches and looks and feels right. People love holding it and definitely know what it is. @Biggeek1972 has seen it, what did you think?

Interested for sure!!

These are still on the go, but the printers are sooooo busy it's going to be a bit until I can spare time to print these (at 24+ hours each)

 

[NothingCreative]

Interested as well!

I know this has been a while since last posted, just wanting to know if this is still available at all?

Sorry, never did run these. Just too much printing time, would need to sell for closer to $250

I know you are a master of the 3D printer but as these are only two parts would it be easier / cheaper to make a mould of the print and cast them ?

 

[rgriesbeck]

Thanks, I don't know much about molds, and don't really have the space to do it. If someone is interested in collaboration, lemme know

Ahem. This will be the topic of discussion over beers at Old Abbey Ales.
