3D printed trophy, custom making your own honor

Image of the World Cup: A spiral line rises from the ground to support the earth

It is a powerful expression of the passion of the moment of victory

It is the most coveted sacred honor in football for every country in the world

It is also the ultimate dream of all footballers in every country

The Palme d ‘Or is the top prize at the Cannes International Film Festival in France

The palm leaf represents the winner’s value

It was a rare and precious symbol of victory

For the most part, trophies are more than anything else

It is a recognition of all the efforts and fights

It is a source of inspiration that never gives up

Every trophy has a story behind it

Today we are going to talk about a Customized Trophy for Mercedes-benz 3D printing

The original offering was a simple 3D model

Font, color Numbers and even the size of Benz’s three-pointed star circle logo have been revised and adjusted repeatedly

Finally, it reaches the most ideal state

Piecemeal

Leave a proper assembly gap

Start printing

Resin was still left on the surface when the machine was first dismounted

It needs to be washed with alcohol

Smooth surface

The font is clear

Spray primer and polish

Thin rods are extremely easy to break and require special attention

Ribbon color is the customer and spray painter after repeated comparison

Final decision: matte China red

The smoother the polish, the better the paint effect

Of course, every piece of product that gets into the hands of the customer

Body often harbors a great soul

The base is hollow out and filled with plaster

It can save printing cost and achieve the right weight

Here comes the hard part!

Two different colors are required for the base font and the peripheral plane

The font color on the gold base is 429U

Font color 431U on silver base

The font of this trophy is also very small

Common methods are difficult to implement

Screen printing, on the other hand, only works with raised fonts

The spray painter tried everything

Hand coating and sand filling

I even tried laser engraving

None of them worked well

But the delivery date waits for no one

The scheduled time is drawing near

The master tossed and turned

Fortunately, everything comes to him who waits

After many days of hard thinking

Finally let the master find a feasible way

Paint the whole font color first

Then screen the flat gold or silver

Screen printing can’t print sunken text

I don’t print words

Change printing convex plane

The final result is quite a surprise!

Do things, is to have this can break the conventional thinking of the reverse!

Grasp the nettle, dare to innovate and strive for perfection

It is the most basic quality of every dream printer!
