New 3D laser scanner and printer what to make? - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

SpeedR · 09-13-2012, 03:19 PM

Just got a new 3D laser scanner a few days ago and our first 3D printer comes in today.

Its got a 10x10x8 in build area. I can build in PLA or ABS.
I was thinking about making a pack for the square thing between the seats that has nothing on it and looks totally out of place.
Or maybe a custom badge on the front or back?
What do you think any good ideas?

Shifter knob
Organizer for the armrest
Badges
Trunk storage hooks
Replacement Dash panels. Radio surround and the passenger airbag cover.

FR-S

Make a 3-D version of the rear emblem - FR-S. Make it have a stand and thicker letters than the emblem - something someone might want to have on their desk. I could be interested in buying something like that depending on how it turned out, the material and the price.

I was actually working on making this. Here is a render of what I have so far. I plan to print one out this weekend

Make some sort of emblem or personal emblem for that center blank spot right below the shifter. I remember the gt 86 has some plate there and the frs has a big blank square there

That looks nice. May I make a couple suggestions? Make the dash mark supports much thinner so that the dash mark itself looks like it's floating in space (I know that's not possible but I hope you get what I mean). Make the letters thicker.

Please post pics as you progress.

I was thinking the same thing. We could most likely remove them altogether (thought it would make the part a little less rigid). That model is just based on the emblem on the back.

Definitely up for suggestions

gauge pod to mount oil pressure and boost gauges over analog mph needle.

This is another item I would be interested in seeing. Design it so that it would clip onto or slip under the interior light unit.
