Makeblock sent me the mCreate smart leveling versatile 3D printer to try out, so I decided to push my non-existent 3D design skills to the limit in order to make a steampunk tap handle to replace the one I broke. My first impressions of the printer were very positive, it basically worked straight out of the box after spending about 15 minutes putting it together. It has a self-leveling feature so the leveling process was taken care of with the push of a button. The removable magnetic build plate was great to work with, allowing relatively easy release of finished models, while still giving good adhesion. It comes with a 0.4mm nozzle. I was really happy with how the steampunk tap handle worked out, and I could see it being a great decorative piece even as a non-functioning unit.
Disclaimer: Makeblock provided the mCreate to try out for free, however, they have not paid me to make this video.
The tap handle was mostly designed in Tinkercad, a free web-based program that I found very easy to use. Tinkercad does seem to have limits in making smooth round pieces, so the original outside ring of the handle was first created in Blender, also a free, but not so easy to use program.
