Here comes the sun
Teacher and maker Jay Ham (@micromet on Thingiverse) used his Airwolf 3D XL to 3D-print a photodiode-based pyranometer housing and pole mount that he designed. Pyranometers are typically used to measure the amount of sunglight that reaches the Earth’s surface.

Furries need collars, too
Whether or not you’ve been known to don a “fursuit,” you can appreciate the beautiful design and print quality of Foxtrot Workshop’s personalized fursuit collar tag.

Ancient culture meets new technology
PC Rush 3D-printed this beautiful Aztec-style head using an Airwolf 3D HD2x. The piece was then finished with “miscellaneous paints and sprays.” Original scanned design created by Steve Campbell on Thingiverse.

Let there be light!
As always, we’ve been busy with some of our own fun 3D-printed projects. To demonstrate that you can create some pretty sophisticated gifts, even without a lot of technical experience, Airwolf 3D Co-Founder Eva Wolf designed and 3D-printed a personalized lithophane nightlight.
