Buck-ling Down for Some Serious Printing

WHAT CLIENT WANTS

A life-size model of a Buck (a male deer). This model will be painted and showcased at exhibitions and events in various locations across the country. 

HOW WE MADE IT HAPPEN

We were tasked with creating a life-size Buck (a male deer) to be showcased at various events across the country. The client wanted to ensure the safety of the antlers during transit, so we developed a "key and lock" mechanism for easy disassembly and reassembly with just a simple twist. The model was carefully designed with varying thicknesses, with solid legs for added support and a 6mm-thickness body. To provide a cost-effective yet sturdy base, we incorporated CNC machining to cut it from ABS plastic instead of simply printing it. Additionally, we polished the model several times and applied a layer of primer, ensuring it was smooth and ready to be painted upon delivery.
