3D Modeled Hat Replica
A client requested a 3D model of a scaled-down Scala hat to be 3D printed and sit atop a beer bottle for the launch of a new beer line.
This was in 2012, so there wasn’t a ton of information on 3D Printing Best Practices. I was printing prototypes on a toxic SLA-style resin printer from the 1980s and refining the model based on those results.
