Hi makers,

Holiday season is here! Perhaps you are about to celebrate at home and limit gatherings. If you miss travel but can not go anywhere, why not make travel from home possible? Snapmaker is here to take you on a voyage for the treasure hunt and look for something different.

We believe the real treasure is creativity and the ability to turn that creativity into reality. If you enter the Snapmaker Wonderland shaped by imagination and creativity, it can all be possible. Check out these project ideas that can inspire and entertain yourself as well as people around you; and read on to find out the way to enter Treasure Hunt in Snapmaker Wonderland!

Treasure Chest 

A treasure chest is always filled with possibilities and waiting to be opened. For this project, install the 3D Printing Module and find a colored filament. We chose wood PLA as material which renders the print a wood-like texture and a golden color.

Nostalgia Map

Probably no one can resist the magic of an unknown map. When viewing a map, you will be lured into its inner world and unconsciously follow every route and network on the map. A map doesn’t have to be truly objective; it can be shaped by the wildest imagination of a maker. If you want to make your own map at home, a Snapmaker 2.0 machine and a piece of leather will be very helpful. You will need the laser function for cutting and engraving jobs in this project.

Landscape Topography Making

Topographic maps are always fun to make. Locate a specific terrain and start printing with our machines. In this project, the printing job is the easiest part. The post-processing is much more challenging. You need to go through a process from surface primer application to wood filler applying, painting, and diverting epoxy to the model. And finally, let the model dry for 4-8 hours until the drip solidifies completely and clean extra paint. If you are interested in a step-by-step guide for this project, please tell us in the comment and we would love to share!

Apart from making wonderful things with the help of our products, you can also set sail on a real treasure hunt in Snapmaker Wonderland!

In the first two rounds from Nov 4 to Nov 18, we buried our “little secrets” in our various platforms. We are thrilled to see more than 6,000 people found their way into this adventure. And we love to hear about how the participants enjoyed this contest so far.

The biggest prize of the first two rounds went to Ryan Morris and Tyler Bille. They have won a Snapmaker 2.0 A350T + Enclosure bundle and a Snapmaker 2.0 F350 respectively, which are our new products just released in October 2021. Snapmaker 2.0 AT models are the latest generation of Snapmaker’s modular 3-in-1 3D printers, whereas F models are more beginner-friendly versions that provide more flexibility in creation. Both AT models and F models are upgraded versions. 

• A reminder here: Tomorrow Nov 19 will be the last day for you to pre-order Snapmaker 2.0 F models for less than 1,000 USD. The offer ends in less than 24 hours!

Missed the first two rounds to embark on the treasure hunt journey? No worries. The third round is coming! Hurry up, you can enter today! In the third round, we are giving away 3 coupons for our new product 10W High Power Laser Module, and 10 coupons for Basswood Sheet. Be careful and hold tight to your password. Good luck! 

Happy making!
