Well Sunday 11th February 2024 is not too far away so I thought I would try to design a print a replica of the NFL Super Bowl Vince Lombardi Trophy.
I designed the trophy with Fusion 360 but unfortunately the program locked up and I lost everything, but luckily I had already saved the 3 Components to print….Phew!
A tricky trophy to make, plenty of angles and how the ball sits on top of the podium, the ball was a bit difficult as well and how would it print, I tried it in 2 halves, but I opted to print in one piece in the end, it turned out ok but someone with more set up knowledge could do a lot better, the only thing I will say when printing with the Bambu Gold and Silver Silks is to slow the outer wall speed down and set the hot end to 230 degrees, it gives the filament a better sheen.
I didn't print all the components together as in the profile, I printed as individual components, the ball prints as is with no supports, like I said earlier it came out ok.
The Ball was secured in place with Super Glue as was the NFL Emblem.
As always thanks for looking and a Happy New Year to all, hope it's a good one!
