FDM Fabrication Bases - With Builds...


'Straight out of the oven', there's an inherent thrill in seeing ones conceptions materialized... In the case of making something through FDM, this sensation is further enhanced by the subtly gridded tray onto which such builds are fabricated, that are neatly framed into perpendicular compositions, regardless of how free-flowingly exuberant or rigidly geometric the designs are... 

A follow up post will show a set of trays without the builds, containing/ retaining only the patterns of the support material...
