recycle fail project for new print

There was a kickstarter going around for a machine like this, I would love to buy one but it doesn't seem there's been any progress in the area.

I could make one, but i ceebs

I printed one of those hut models since I wanted to see how my machine would go compared to those other 3 makes of printer.

Here is the result



Pretty happy with it, except for the top.
For some reason my machine always spoils the top of my prints, as it gets to the end of the job the tool head slows right down but keeps kicking out plastic at the same rate.
This results in a big glob of molten goop on the top of all my models

just model a lil' snippy snap thing at the top, then, so that it's easy to remedy by sanding it off

I am currently trying to fix the problem by printing a floating box above and to the side of the model.
Therefore this box will be the last thing to print, and I don't care if the machine ruins the floating box since it's not part of the model

yup! that'll do it (that's basically what i was saying, except i put it in a dumber way)
