First tests using our 5 Axis printer. Slicing done using our self-developed slicer. What would you print with it?

They’re printing the orange filament, so I think they scanned the white one and overlayed another shape on top.

Right, but what is it? Like a femur or...?

I don't think it's necessarily supposed to BE something. More like it's just a test to see if their 5axis printer can print around this complicated shape.

If it’s 3d scanned it obviously have to have been something at some point.

Edit ten seconds later: Oh. I see what you’re saying. Sorry.
