#MBME | Family Affair

From radio control to woodworking, Walter Marlin can’t seem to stop tinkering. His true passion is creating props and costumes, a passion shared by his entire family. In fact you can often catch the Marlin crew at conventions and conferences where they dress up as their favorite characters from video game, comic book, and film franchises and made on Walter’s MakerBot Replicator 2 Desktop 3D Printer. Below, Walter with the Halo 4 helmet designed on his MakerBot Replicator 2 Desktop 3D Printer for his 13-year-old. He’s currently working on a full-scale Ironman bodysuit for his wife. What a romantic. Want to share your own MakerBot Replicator 2 story for a chance to win $250? Find out how here.
