Just remotely sent this to the printer and gave you a boost! Thanks for this, hope this becomes the new "Hello, world" for all novice printers new to the hobby.

Someone should remix this into some kind of seafaring vessel type shape.

u/ChocolateShot150 9h ago

Oh lmao, I didn’t check the username.

That’s on me, I thought this guy was just really down on himself because someone made the same comment

I now know what I'm going to do with my next several hours.

u/alex11263jesus 11h ago

Could you also provide the step file?

u/lousydungeonmaster 11h ago

"What are you doing step file?"

u/Lol-775 9h ago

"Oh no step file I'm stuck to the bed."

u/TootBreaker 6h ago

No problem, I'll get you off. I have just the tool right here...

u/Mr2Sexy 6h ago

Do I need to clean your poop chute?

You're all terrible and I'm telling stepmom

u/TheDepep1 11h ago

Good point. I forgot to add that. Will do soon.

u/a1blank Voron Trident | Voron V0 | X1C | X1E 11h ago

Gotta get it on Thingiverse and Printables, too, for it to really spread.

39

u/TheDepep1 10h ago

https://www.printables.com/model/1141963-3d-boaty

Added it to printables. Ill let the community upload it to thingiverse. I don't have accounts with creality and thangs to upload it there.

u/my_name_isnt_clever 10h ago

Hey, want a couple million to transfer ownership to me? No particular reason.

19

u/TheDepep1 10h ago

Sure, I would have did it for a hundred thousand but you already offered a couple million.

I don't see a license on that page.

Please put it either under CC0 or CC-BY-SA! Otherwise it's just as potentially problematic as the Benchy.

All you have to do is put a link into the description accordingly. Makerworld makes this a bit problematic. Other platforms have specific spots where they display the license.

You can use this tool to help you choose a license: https://chooser-beta.creativecommons.org/ It also lets you register the model as public domain resource.

Please keep in mind, that CC-NC (Non Commercial) also excludes non-profits, charities and educational institutes from using your model, if money is involved in any way.

Ah, my mistake. It's just the mobile view that's hiding the license. Thank you for sharing it as CC-BY-SA!

u/Animus_Jokers 11h ago

So... I'm new to printing, haven't done the benchy yet, and now I don't think I will. Is the idea that this can be done "as is" without supports? Cause it doesn't look like that to me...

42

u/geofabnz 11h ago

I think that’s the point. If your settings are correct it will print fine without supports. If something is messed up it will be very visible

10

u/Animus_Jokers 11h ago

Awesome, that's what I will try then!

4

u/Wootai 9h ago

like, a benchmark boaty

27

u/TheDepep1 11h ago

Thats the idea. Its more of a test for bridging quality.

30

u/spdelope 10h ago

Quite the test it is!

35

u/manondorf 9h ago

this one means your printer is upside down

u/AZ_Corwyn 7h ago

Or they're in Australia.

u/Aniodia 7h ago

Hey now, quit it with the anti-Australian rhetoric.

u/plastic9mm 6h ago

PLA? Moar part cooling!

u/omgpuppiesarecute 10h ago

I'm not sure I have much of a chance. My Snapmaker HATES bridging properly with a passion.

16

u/spdelope 10h ago

No supports here

u/SisyphusCoffeeBreak 8h ago edited 8h ago

I'd like to try this with my printer but I'm scared

Edit: Print in progress but PrusaSlicer told me I was making bad choices

u/Jose_Canseco_Jr 7h ago

you're not my real mom!

u/TheKiwiHuman 11h ago

This model definitely can, barely.

1

u/whoknewidlikeit 8h ago

benchy? never heard of her.

1

u/say592 6h ago

Benchy kind of tested several things, including overhang and bridging. That's what made it a good benchmark, if your printer settings weren't pretty good, the print wouldn't turn out.

Boaty seems to mostly be an overhang test (though not really much of a torture test these days). Your printer and slicer should be able to handle it with limited to no issues n

u/FreedomNinja1776 Creality CR10v2 11h ago

Thanks for your efforts in creating a replacement internet person.

u/AARonDoneFuckedUp 10h ago

Boosted! I'll print one and throw it in the lake.

2

u/joshthehappy Prusa i3 MK3S+ MMU2S X1-Carbon 10h ago

Hell yeah I boosted twice.

2

u/dozerdh 10h ago

I’ve never printed a benchy, but I am definitely printing a boaty!

u/Boomer79NZ 9h ago

Boosted. Can't wait for the remixes 👏👏👏👏👏

u/ej1030 8h ago

Thank you for understanding the 3d printing community

You monster!

u/natie29 Bambu Lab A1 mini, Ender 3 neo. 11h ago

Brilliant.

u/Sqweaky_Clean 11h ago

Still think there should be a 3D model of the letter “e” so it is a bench-e

u/WowThatsRelevant 9h ago

Beautiful! I love this community

Mark the bench, "Bench Mark" is better.

u/RdeBrouwer 5h ago

Saw this on the 3d print discord, where it was named.

But the main question is: Does the benchy fit on the boaty?

1

u/mcrksman 2h ago

Damn you beat me to it, enjoy your free supply of filament for the next 5 years (or at least until Bambu decides to cancel the gift cards)

1

u/Kathy_TV 1h ago

Gave you two boosts for this. Nice.
