Hello! Hope you all are doing good. @pluggedman asked me if i could do a video showing how i design my plugs. Today i recorded a compact video of how i do it with Fusion 360. I am not a proffessional in 3D design, but i am trying to improve. In the video below you can see how i desing a free model with only a few tools of the software. I am aware that there is a lot of powerfull tools in it, but i don´t know how to use them. Anyway, i am happy with the results.
As you can see, modifying the dimensions of the plug is an easy task since i can edit the historial, and the scale factor in each axis. After i finish the design of the toy i´ts time to use a slicer tool to send the file to the 3D printer. Each plug takes 6 to 10 hours of printing, depending on the infill, perimeters, layer heigh, etc. The cost rounds between 2€ - 3€ each one, depending on the same factors.
If anyone is wondering about the safety issues i can assure that the plugs cames out very strong. I test every print with a lot of pressure around the neck and at the base, the critical parts. For inserting it i use a condom to cover the plug intself and a Tenga Egg to cover the base that goes in contact with my body.
This is a very short post only to show you the way i follow to make my own plugs. In the future i will post a more detailed guide with some tips on the printing part, as well how to cover the plug successfully.
Hope you like this post, and feel free to comment. Bye!
