A New Chewbacca Figure Derivative on Thingiverse

Its Chewbacca!

Thingiverse User JonSimmons created this fun new derivative of my original Blank Minifig  by combining and reworking parts from several other Thingiverse models.

If you would like to print your own Giant Chewbacca, download the files from Jon's Thingiverse derivative page here.

Epic 100nM layer Height Print of My Gothic Cathedral Model!

Thingiverse User underst0rm just posted this 'I made one' that blows my mind!  It's photo of a printed copy of my Gothic Cathedral Playset under and electron microscope!  Those little squares in the background are only 2um long.  This is without a doubt the coolest 'i made one' i've gotten yet.

The 3D Printer

underst0rm describes his printer as a  'Selfbuilt 2PP machine' or a two-photon lithography system, with a resolution of 0.3 micrometer and a layer height of 100nm.  I'd love the learn more about his machine and what it's designed to do.

Correction: an early version of this post talked about 100um layer height. That was an error I attribute it to a totally blown mind.  The correct units are 100nm - nanometers, not 100um - micrometers.
