About Project

Are you looking for a unique and stylish accessory that will make you stand out from the crowd? If so, you might be interested in this amazing SLA 3D Printed Clear Resin Artist Wavy Handbag. This is not your ordinary handbag, but a stunning piece of art that showcases the beauty and potential of 3D printing.

This handbag is 3D printed in one piece with SLA Clear Resin, a material that is as clear as glass and has excellent mechanical properties. The design features a wavy structure on the bottom half of the bag, which is reminiscent of ripples on water. The waves add a sense of texture and interest to the bag, as well as create a contrast with the smooth and sleek upper half. The handles are thin and elegant, but also strong and durable.

It is a custom-made artwork for a talented artist on Instagram, who entrusted us with their creative vision. We respect their originality and exclusivity, and we will not sell or share the 3D model or the prints of this handbag with anyone else.

However, creating this handbag was not easy. There were many challenges in the printing and post-processing stages. The handles are thin and brittle, so we had to arrange the positioning carefully and add enough supports. Polishing was difficult, as we wanted to make it as clear as glass, but polishing the ripples, the handle, and the inner side of the bag, required a lot of labor force. Packaging was also important, we had to use foam to fix the body and handle, to prevent any damage during transportation.

But we are proud of the result, and we hope you will love it too. This handbag is a perfect example of how 3D printing can create amazing artwork that combines aesthetics and functionality. If you are interested in this handbag, or want to customize your own 3D-printed clear resin artwork, please visit our website at facfox.com, where you can find more information and place your order. We are looking forward to hearing from you!

Solution

• Step 1: The 3D model of the handbag was designed by the artist on computer software, and then exported as an STL file.
• Step 2: The STL file was imported into a slicing software, where the printing parameters, such as layer height, orientation, and supports, were set. The slicing software generated a G-code file that instructed the 3D printer on how to print the handbag.
• Step 3: The G-code file was transferred to the 3D printer, which used SLA (stereolithography) technology to print the handbag. SLA is a process that uses a laser to cure liquid resin into solid layers. The 3D printer had a resin tank filled with SLA Clear Resin, and a build platform that moved up and down. The laser scanned the cross-section of the handbag on the surface of the resin, and cured it into a solid layer. Then, the build platform moved up slightly, and the laser scanned the next layer. This process was repeated until the whole handbag was printed.
• Step 4: The printed handbag was removed from the build platform, and then washed with isopropyl alcohol to remove any excess resin. It had to be handled carefully.
• Step 5: The handbag was placed in a UV curing chamber, where it was exposed to UV light for a certain amount of time. This process hardened and strengthened the handbag, and also improved its transparency.
• Step 6: The supports were cut off from the handbag with a pair of pliers or a knife. The support marks were sanded with sandpaper or a rotary tool to smooth them out.
• Step 7: The handbag was polished with various grades of polishing compounds and cloths, starting from coarse to fine. This process removed any scratches or imperfections on the surface of the handbag, and made it as clear as glass.
• Step 8: The handbag was cleaned with water and soap, and then dried with a soft cloth. The handbag was inspected for any defects or flaws, and then packed with foam and bubble wrap in a sturdy box for shipping.
