The printing process took less than 1 hour to complete in total. The parts were printed in PLA at a layer height of 21-40 microns and shell thickness of 0.5mm.

He has unveiled a miniature 3D printed circular saw, which he 3D printed on his Ultimaker 2 machine, after designing the individual parts using a software called Onshape. Now Abernethy has revealed his latest creation, perhaps even more impressive than his previous. Lance’s creation garnered him the attention of the international media, and apparently enticed him to continue his efforts of creating even more miniature working power tools. Perhaps you remember a story that we broke back in March, concerning a New Zealand man, named Lance Abernethy, who 3D printed the world’s smallest working power drill.
