Mini 3D print of a slightly larger 3D-printable design

Here's an earlier 3D print test of my 3D design below:
And here's a later test print in-hand:

This latter print came from a pair of replacement extruders we installed at work last week and they're working better than ever! I also received the ship notice on my home 3D printer and it should arrive soon. Stoked! In preparation I bought some clear polycarbonate filament from GizmoDorks.com as well as some glow-in-the-dark HIPS filament cause they're friggin' awesomely print-ready. Clear polycarb V2 anyone?  Oh and the HIPS polymer is soluble in D-Limonene so it's a highly reliable structural material that can double as support material for complex and gravity-challenged designs.
