										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Earlier this week <a href="https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2013/08/3d-printing-fossils/">I tried my hand at printing fossils</a>.  The print didn't perfectly, but it was quite encouraging.</p>

<p>Museum Victoria - an Australian institution - has released a <a href="http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:91832">3D scanned trilobite on Thingiverse</a>.</p>

<p>I trimmed the model - to make the bed shallower and the sides neater - and hit print.  I'm pretty impressed with the results:</p>

<p>My <a href="http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:143050">remixed model is also available on Thingiverse</a> if you'd like to have a go at printing your very own fossil.</p>

<p>I'm impressed with the fidelity of the print. It came out much better than I expected. You can really see a lot of the detail.  I think it could be an excellent way to introduce people to fossils, to really give them a chance to examin them and feel them - even if they can't get to a museum.</p>
