3D Printing

It’s officially March 10th, and you know what that means! Oh, yeah! Mario Time! This year, I decided, “What better way to pay homage to everyone’s favorite plumber than to make some Starmen, or Super Stars, along with a sweet coin box to hold them in?” So, I headed to Maker World to find what I needed!

Let’s-a-go!

First up: Super Stars. These adorable little guys may not actually make you invincible, but they will surely put a smile on your face!

Now that you have some Super Stars you will want something cool to hold them in. I contemplated making a Thowmp box for my stars, however, my kids were so offended as die-hard Mario fans I switched it up to a coin box.

Once I have all of my components printed, I can assemble the coin box and celebrate Mario Day in style! As Mario would say: "Wowie zowie!"

Happy Mario Day everyone!
