I've got wood

Who would have thought you could 3D print wood?

Had a little arts & craft project with my son. Sanded it, stained it, and added a little paint. Stuff smells like sawdust while it is printing. I'm really happy with how it turned out. Seemed like the perfect test of my new wood filament.

I am Groot.

And here I thought this thread was going to be about your experiences with Viagra.

Apparently if you have a 3D printer you don't need Viagra, you can just print one when you need "it".

Cool! How long did that printing take?

Perhaps we can make a frame stay for the guys who drop their bikes and break the mirror stay???

The head was about 6 hours and the body was nearly 14 hours. Print time really depends on the amount of infill and the layer height. This was printed at 0.2mm layer height but I can go down to 0.05mm. It would just take 4x longer. I figured the lower detail was actually desirable for the wood look.
