    With Valentines Day upon us, I figured I needed to do something quasi-romantic to prove the usefulness of our new printer.

    I've seen some beautiful 3-d printed roses and flowers, but am not nearly good enough to attempt that, so I cooked up a "cookie/candy" mold in the shape of a candy heart.

    I don't know if the PLA is food-safe, so I'm intending to be used with a sheet of saran wrap between the mold and foodstuff.

    This is just V1. Tests show that embossed letters are too shallow and I printed it on too small a scale, but I won't have time to improve it before Valentine's Day so she gets this and a promise of v2 later.

    Here's the link if you guys want to play with it.

    What romantic prints are you guys doing for your significant others for V-Day?

    The model has issues, printing multiple copies caused bizarre issues, but netfabb cured them.
