“…and filament. Lots of filament.”
The volume of Planet Earth is 108.321x10^10 km3.. Converted to std meters, that is 1.08321x10^21 m3.
A typical high flow 3d printer hotend (without getting insane) can hit around 25mm3/sec volumetric flow assuming no nozzle or acceleration restrictions. Converted to std meters, that is 2.5x10^-8 m3/sec.
If you ran that hotend continuously with no breaks, it would only take about 4.332x10^28 seconds to print the planet Earth… or 1.374x10^21 (1.4 sextillion!) years!
Gentlemen. We’re going to need a bigger printer.
Just set it to 5% infill in fast spaghetti mode and we can crank that baby out before the sun goes dark.
I mean if you only print the side that is exposed to sun. Keep rotating that baby.
That’s why you start by printing more printers.
Lol imagine thinking you would print anything without youtube!
Well unless you like miniatures in which case you’re going to need resin
Actually I printed a few decent ones with my Ender 3. A couple tests on my new A1 came out really nice.
