I was puttering about my studio this morning getting ready to print off parts for something I've been working on when the printed bed scraper I was using finally gave up the ghost. I popped on to Printables to find a suitable replacement when I saw there was a Valentine's Day contest. Well, what better reason to try to throw together my own and make my second upload? The result is Cupid's Arrow: the bed scraper, craft tool, whatever you can think of to use it for.

I made 3 versions with words, one without words, and a version of each with both a cupid and a heart at the tail. If you know how to modify stl files you can easily customize this.

It's a surprisingly good scraper if you don't cheap out on your print settings. I recommend printing at .1mm layer height with an initial layer of .28mm and go slow. The ones pictured were printed at 30mms for the first layer and 50mms for the rest. Use at least 20% cubic infill but the more the better. In the end it's entirely up to you but you'll get out of them what you put into them. If you can at least keep the layer height low then do and know you'll lose the details the faster you go.

Happy Valentine's Day! Enjoy!
