Another round of pokemons, can't get enough.

Butterfly Comb

Cool idea and first print which had to be assembled.
Lesson learned: When model creators don't pay attention to scale, it's quite a painfull trail and error to fit multiple parts together.

First print with "wooden" filament: about 30% recycled woodfibres and 70% PLA.

Second try on the karambit knife.
Lesson learned: Gluing parts together, polishing them with sandpaper and coloring, all works great with PLA-printed stuff.

Christmastree Star

Nice, Mario-themed, christmas decoration. Instant +5 geek bonus.
Lesson learned: Bright colors, like yellow, need a thicker shell to not reveal their infill structure.

Christmas Tree Star
Guitarpick Holder

A little christmas-gift for a guitar-playing friend.
Lesson learned: A combination between firmware-upgrade, higher spring pressure (material feeder) and higher temperature made for a smooth print.

Guitarpick Holder
Chain

After giving away all our chains (great gifts to show off 3D-Printer capabilities), we needed new ones.
Lesson learned: The raft by Cura sucks. It sticks way to hard to the modell. Makerbot's raft is better.

Cuddling Owls

As the first overnight test-print, we choose this Cuddling Owls modell.
Lesson learned: As a first hotfix, printing at 80% speed worked out nicely.

Eggcup

In the need for a small (~1h) print to further test the Ultimaker we chose to print this stylish eggcup.
Lesson learned: In it's current state Ultimaker can't print on 100% speed, fix is underway.

Earring

First print (from the included sd-card) is "Earring".
Lesson learned: Heated printplate is great: After cool-down modell comes right of, no scratching required. Makes it much easier.

Fairphone2 Landscape Dock

After buying a Fairphone2 and not having a Landscape-Dock on the desk, I realized how much I enjoyed Beni's HTC One Dock. So I helped myself and created this model.
Lesson learned: Its exponentially harder to make this for the Fairphone2 because the keys and camera stands out.
