Those delicious looking things are granulated sugar, burned into place with a DIY 3D printer that is essentially a CNC soldering gun. Not safe for human consumption.
As a memorial for one of her friends, my sister-in-law requested a Sheriff's Badge that read "Fun Police". Building off of the Sheriff Badge OpenSCAD Model by Bichiatari, I made some modifications and got the print done before the funeral

Contrary to what might be expected, the hollowed version of the part takes longer to print, uses more filament, and is stronger.
I was happy to see that wall signs could successfully be used for chair arms without snapping off. These signs are thickened to avoid snapping off.
Raft failure: at 30mm/s on generic RoboSavvy filament, trying to do a 2mm wide extrude from 0.4mm nozzle, the rep2 does this. At 10mm/s its fine. This is makerbot 2014 software (which has plenty of bad design flaws...)

Note the monster spawner, and a nice side view of the surviving cactus flowerpot. You can also pick out the 1.4 beta's cobblestone walls behind the lava (a bit shiny, admittedly - the protective coating tends to make the material shiny).
The orange one is printed in a rubbery plastic. The goal is to print a prosthetic hand that will pass the Turing Test. Next step: print a hand that is soft on the surface with hard bones underneath. From the Brandeis University Maker Lab and Brandeis University 3D Printing Club.
