The Mug Of Giant Awesomeness
Description
So...the glow in the dark effect is very light, but it turned out well. The mug is glow in the dark green PLA with orange sharpies marker rubbed/ brushed down with acetone. The base is black PLA, with a ring of UV leads embedded in bar topping epoxy to make it waterproof. This example was printed at 80% scaling on the mug. Might make a different base with more upwards directed and brighter LEDs. The marks on the back bear explanations. The top is the rune stave "Aegishjalmur" , the Helm Of Awe. The second is the rune stave " Vegvisir" , a Norse rune that supposedly always allowed one to find his way. The third is the Thurs rune which stood for "giant" in Norse. So I guess you could say..." May you always find your way to a giant awesome beer!!!" Print in PLA at recommended settings for your filament. I did 0.4mm on a 0.4mm nozzle, but YMMV. The woodtoning works best with a light color for a base. orange and green sharpies combine to make a nice brown when brushed or rubbed with acetone. Make long verticle marks like the woodgrain would be, then brush acetone on with a cheap chip brush or similar. Takes some training...I suggest a flat test piece and some practice.
