3D printing a green lantern ring
One ring to rule them all

Once you get your hands on a 3D printer the possibilities are near endless. What comic book reading child and emotionally stunted adult didn't want a Green Lantern ring? Sure you can buy them now. But this was an excuse to make one. I really don't have a step-by-step guide because it's deceptively simple. But I thought I'd post a few odds and ends nonetheless

My printer has a hard time with printing small objects but I find if I used support it seems to do the trick.
I printed and played around with painting them I use white filament and green paint obviously. ring size is something like 13 so I used a Dremel to widen the band a bit.
Very happy with the way it came out. Eight year old me would be proud
