Today,
I’m going to speak about the 3D printer.

What is the 3D Printer?
• the computer equipment for printing out the solid object.
• It's has been used by many people these few years.
• The cost is getting lower, and the size getting smaller.

How to print out the object?
It's need to get the 3D model data,
or you have to make the 3D Model Data.
Slide 6
Slide 6 text
I made a 3D model character.
It's called ‘Wapuu’.
Slide 7

What is Wapuu?
‘Wapuu’ is official character of WordPress in Japan.

They are also born in overseas.

And...
Wapuu is loved by worldwide WordPress users.
Slide 17
Slide 17 text
I made the 3D version of Wapuu.
Slide 18
Slide 18 text
I made him(her?) by using The 3DCG Software
Using Maya,the highend 3DCG Software.
It's used in Hollywood film production studios.
Slide 19

Completed 3D Wapuu Data
After that, I was asked to print out
this Wapuu Data.
Slide 20
Slide 20 text
It was first challenge of printing out the Wapuu 3D data.
probably the world’s first.
Slide 21
Slide 21 text
The 3D Printer I used.
MakerBot Replicator 2
Amazon Japan sells it at a price of 344,800 yen.
Slide 22
Slide 22 text
Imported 3D Data to the designated software for 3D Printer,
and printing out process began!

Slide 23
Slide 23 text
But...
Slide 24
Slide 24 text
I failed many times.
I made many Mickey Mouse instead of Wapuu.
And a failure occurred even 90% process.
Slide 25
Slide 25 text
The cause of trouble
The machine condition ware in bad condition.
I changed the parts and gave it the good maintenance
to all of the machine.
Slide 26
Slide 26 text
After that, I tried to print out that again.
will it be success this time?
Slide 27
Slide 27 text
And...
Slide 28
Slide 28 text
Somehow Wapuu was printed out!
Slide 29
Slide 29 text
Did that the end of all the process?
Slide 30
Slide 30 text
It was the beginning of true struggles.
No.
Slide 31
Slide 31 text
The printed object is jagged, so that condition is not good.
And the object is single color, not painted.
The 3D Printer that I used extrude the
molten plastic and form the layers that
would be piled up and form the solid object.
Slide 32
Slide 32 text
It still needs to another handwork
and steady efforts after the process.
Slide 33
Slide 33 text
First step : Polishing
I purchased the sandpaper designated for printed out objects.
Slide 34
Slide 34 text
I needed to polish after polishing while wetting with water.
Polishing little by little
Slide 35
Slide 35 text
Second Step : Coatings
Using the putty and the surfacer.
Slide 36
Slide 36 text
coating all of the body
by the putty and polishing again.
Slide 37
Slide 37 text
painting by the surfacer
Undercoating for painting.
Slide 38
Slide 38 text
Final Step : Painting
Masking and painting by the spray.
Slide 39
Slide 39 text
repeat masking and painting
totality six colors.

Golden Wapuu Trophy
for 5th anniversary
Slide 43
Slide 43 text
The Wapuu Figure was exhibited
in WordCamp Kansai 2016, a WordPress conference.

The Wapuu trophy was given to author of original Wapuu,
Ms. Kaneuchi Kazuko San.

About the 3D model data
of Wapuu
Slide 46
Slide 46 text
The Wapuu 3D Model data has been released
on GitHub.
https://github.com/wckansai2016/3d-wapuu
Slide 47
Slide 47 text
Anyone can download that data
and you can print out the same Wapuu object.
A while ago,an another country person printed out Wapuu.

The future of 3D Printer.
Slide 49
Slide 49 text
New material and new system arrived.
like rubber, wood,metal.
Slide 50
Slide 50 text
Depending on ours idea and skill, you
can make whatever object you like.
Cloth,Medical, even building the home!
Slide 51
Slide 51 text
But if you use 3D printer wrongly,
it is dangerous.
If you misuse like this, you will be arrested.
Slide 52
Slide 52 text
Whether we use it right or wrong is up to you.
That is also the same for all kinds of technologies.
But technologies will progress more and more without stopping.
Slide 53
Slide 53 text
Thank you for listening.
Let’s have fun watching the progress of technologies!
