This has been requested by so many of you, so many times, that I finally caved LOL. Please note, I don't actually watch Star Trek (I watched one movie, I think), but I received helpful information that this version of the Enterprise (Enterprise-E NCC-1701-E) is one of the more popular ones.
This is completely print-in-place without the use of ANY supports or post-processing.
As usual, the included 3MF will have all necessary settings loaded up for Bambu Studio users. If you do not use Bambu Studio, or would like to use your own settings, please use the STL and follow the instructions below:
Print Instructions HueForge section (0.00mm - 2.04mm)
- Print at 100% infill with a layer height of 0.08mm with a base layer of 0.2mm
Enterprise (2.04mm - 157.74mm)
- Print at 5% infill (I used Crosshatch) with a layer height of 0.16mm.
- 2 walls, 3 tops and 3 bottoms
- Slow down for overhangs!
You can split these settings up in the slicer by using Height Range Modifiers for the different layer ranges.
If you resize this please only resize the X and Y dimensions! The enterprise sticks out a fair bit from the hueforge painting, so best to keep it in a heavy frame to prevent it from tipping over, or sticking it up on a wall!
Filaments Used:
- PLA BambuLab Matte Charcoal Transmission Distance: 0.6
- PLA Flashforge Burnt Titanium Transmission Distance: 6
- PLA BambuLab Basic Pink Transmission Distance: 6.6
- PLA CC3D Orange Transmission Distance: 6.5
- PLA Kingroon White Transmission Distance: 5.8
- PLA Polymaker Starlight Mercury Transmission Distance 5.6 (for the Enterprise!)
Swap Instructions:
- Start with Charcoal
- At layer 0.76mm swap to Burnt Titanium
- At layer 1mm swap to Pink
- At layer 1.4mm swap to Orange
- At layer 1.56mm swap to White for the rest.
- At layer 2.04mm swap to Starlight Mercury (for the Enterprise!)
This model uses this CC-BY Enterprise model by user nd4spd1919. Definitely grab the model if you want a standalone one of the Enterprise. It prints so well!
