I've been 3D printing Halloween themed parts throughout the year, both for fun and as props for The Haunted Barn in Camden, DE.

Now that Halloween is almost here, I thought it would be cool to put up some of the things I've printed.  I'd love to supplement this with other people's prints as well.  Please leave a comment with your print.  You can link it, or send it to me and I will add it to the post!

In my last post, I put up some pics of 1 of the creepy clown models I printed from models designed by Thingiverse user Cerberus333.  He actually put up 10 different creepy clown busts.  They’re all pretty cool.  

Here are two more.  His models can be downloaded for free here.  Cerberus333 is a prolific contributor to the thingiverse file sharing site.  Check out his vast body of work here.

So far, I have posted examples of more ‘artsy’ type things I have done.  Today I am going to go with something that is a pretty drastic departure.

The object is a bearing made of gears.  Each gear is a herringbone gear.  For those of you that are not into mechanical things, this means that the gear looks like a tractor tire.  The use of the herringbone gears gives the bearing very good thrust load capability(when you push against the face of the center or outer gears while the others are held in place).

There are a few really cool things about this.
