Description
This is a version of Darth Vader Fun by Val, split just below the “chin” to provide optimal placement on the print bed with minimal supports. When I first printed Fun Vader I opted to print him standing on his head with supports as it appeared that printing him feet down would require a lot more supports, but that led to a rough area on the top of the helmet where it interfaced to the support material. The 3mf file included here has minimal supports under the helmet and some small brims where the helmet touches the bed. All are easy to remove. There are rectangular alignment sockets on the surfaces where the model was split and a small alignment peg to assist with alignment prior to gluing.
