For the contest of a cup or trophy trying out new features of Prusa Slicer 2.6 alpha2 (PS) I designed some areas (flat or waved) to apply the cool new feature of text.

I designed similar to Printables awards a trophy containing from five (5) individual stl-files.

  1. Platform receiving the stl for “deep sea” and stl for “contest medal”.
  2. Deep sea is a separate stl, you can print it in blue, like the sea waves. I printed in PETG "blue translucent".
  3. Contest medal, this is in the files area two times: 45° or 0° (flat on buildplate) oriented. The number “#1” was applied by PS as “substracted”. Printed in black until last 4-5 layers, which I printed in silver.
  4. Contest Benchy, standard Benchy reworked on the bottom. And at the chimney the hole for receiving the flutter flag. 
  5. Flutter flag for experimenting PS text feature on a changing surface (alternating). Printed with option “advanced” →  “use surface”. I was happy to see how the text followed the wave, good job Prusa guys.

Everything was printed in PLA on several printers (for time reasons). But all were sliced with PS 2.6 alpha. Everything was printed on the build plate naturally oriented, unless the flutter flag, which I printed on my old and brave PEI plate (>5 years old), with 2mm brim. Everything else did not need any support.

Eventually I glued the deep sea on the platform, the Benchy on the sea in the foreseen mould, the medal on the platform. The flag was only stuck into the hole of the Benchy.

This project made a lot of fun, the new function turned out excellent.

For printers I used Voron 2.4 for platform, Voron 0.1 for deep sea and Benchy, Prusa MK3S+ for the flag and medal. Therefore, you find 3mf files fitting different printers.

Note: You can print the contest medal together with the platform and even together with deep sea, if you choose one single color. I printed three files, individual colors.
