Normally I’d rather print something I designed then just printing stuff from thingiverse. It is far more fun to be a producer then a consumer, but here are a few thingiverse prints I did recently.
The snowflake tealight (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:38418) gave me some troubles slicing, skeinforge (via cura) made some really odd fill decisions, but it at least it wasn’t the epic fail I got when I tried a git build of slic3r.
The gyroscopic snowflake (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:36922) showed that I still haven’t fixed the problem with inadequate tension in the short belts on my ultimaker (I replaced the long belts, but ordered the wrong part for the short belts). I printed this with 100% infill and it is nice and heavy and the outer flakes spin nicely, the pins on the tiny flake where a bit crunchy.
I printed these in http://printbl.com sapphire PLA with 0.1mm layers.
