Freak out your friends or add some flair to your garden. I love that this print comes with a paleontology lesson! From MartinKJHB on Thingiverse:
The Paleodictyoptera are an extinct order of large flying insects that lived during the Carboniferous and Permian periods. This is just a generic impression rather than any particular species. Amazingly, some fossils show preserved wing patterns. I modelled the coloration on the extant owlflies, which show similar patterns but aren’t closely related. I also added tracheal gills similar to those of mayfly nymphs, even though that’s pretty speculative.

Every Thursday is #3dthursday here at Adafruit! The DIY 3D printing community has passion and dedication for making solid objects from digital models. Recently, we have noticed electronics projects integrated with 3D printed enclosures, brackets, and sculptures, so each Thursday we celebrate and highlight these bold pioneers!
Have you considered building a 3D project around an Arduino or other microcontroller? How about printing a bracket to mount your Raspberry Pi to the back of your HD monitor? And don’t forget the countless LED projects that are possible when you are modeling your projects in 3D!
