Eagle eye social media star Heather from A Pyro Design spotted my Maker Coin on Twitter. What a fantastic “make” of the English Version of the Maker Coin!

And thanks to Thingiverse member, B_Layne, I know now what the English version of the From Failure Comes Knowledge Maker Coin looks. Lovely!
One thing I absolutely love about having a Maker Coin celebrating failures is people feel comfortable and free to share their mishaps and failures making the coin. Thingiverse user Waldamore brought me absolute delight this morning with this Make.
I have had nozzle offset mishaps too. : )
Love it! Viva la Fails!
By request for a community member, there is now an English version of the “From Failure Comes Knowledge” Maker Coin. That version is “maker-coin-english.stl” in the files section on Thingiverse.
Thingiverse user lelopes logged a hilarious “make” of my From Failure Comes Knowledge Maker Coin! Technically, it was a failed Benchy, but it failed in a manner almost identical than what was depicted on my Maker Coin.
I got a good kick out of it. Here’s a comparison of the two (I flipped his picture).
Enjoy!
A little starstruck today. The folks behind 3DBenchy liked my MakerCoin and featured me on their blog.

When we are pushing the limits, we are going to encounter fails. But through failure comes knowledge and at times, it even brings about extra creativity. On that note, I hope 2017 brings you many fails!
In December, I did a last minute contribution to the A Pyro Design Maker Coin Holiday Tree. In my coin, I wanted to celebrate the failures that comes along with learning 3D Printing. I call it, “From Failure Comes Knowledge“. This video details the inspirations behind the coin, a little taste of the modeling in Blender, and the [embarrassing] two fails I had printing it.
