May 2019 UFO Contents

Thank You to this month’s sponsors, contributors, and companies who didn’t try to shoot our UFO’s out of the sky for using their product in this month’s box.

The May 2019 UFO Mystery 3D Printing Box has landed! This month is themed for Star Wars: May the 4th Be With You. I want to thank Dan (@AlkeshOne) for designing the 3D Printable project parts for the Night Sabers!

Congrats to ... for receiving the May 2019 Mothership Box!

...

The Mothership Box this month contained a BondTech Extruder provided by FilamentOne!

Congrats to ... waiting on tweet ... for receiving the May 2019 Filaments Only Scout Ship Box!

...

The Filaments Only Scout Ship Box is given to one random Filaments Only subscriber and receives a unique 3D printed Scout Ship and full UFO box with the projects and accessory for that month!

Filament Samples

All filament samples are at least 20 meters in length (actually more, I increased the length to eat up the extra filament being left behind on the rolls)

MatterHackers

MH Build Series PLA - Silver

Extrusion Temp: 190 to 220C
Bed Temp: 0-60C

Silver I thought would be a great color for use with the Night Sabers, as well as if anyone wanted to print a space ship!

Zyltech

PLA - Bronze

Extrusion Temp: 180 to 220C
Bed Temp: 0 - 60C

The bronze color I thought also would make either some good space ships, parts for the Night Sabers, or even maybe some spacetrooper helmets!

Prusa Research

Prusament - PETG - Carmin Red Trasparent

Extrusion Temp: 235 to 250C
Bed Temp: 70-100C

This is a new color of Prusament and with the translucency and the sparkles I thought it would make for some awesome Night Saber blades!

TGlase - Industrial - Transparent Blue

Extrusion Temp: 235 to 250C
Bed Temp: 0-70C

Another great color for a Night Saber, and also something different. TGlase is an industrial food safe filament (obviously the environment needs to be as well) and has printing temps similar to PETG. Definitely looking forward to your feedback on this one!

Bonus Accessory!

LED Photo Lightbox

As have been the last couple months, I've been trying to get people to get in to post processing. So this month I thought it would be great for you all to be able to take photos of your printe. The LED strip lights up bright enough to get great photos and the lightbox should be able to fit about a 240mm tall print!
