I have a 3d printer as well! I was making soap stamps with it! It was really fun to do. Do you have any suggestions on how to print a boat that floats? Or something fun for a two year old boy to play with?

The hard part about a toddler like that is that everything needs to be 40x40x40mm or larger so they don't choke. But to your question about a boat...I believe PLA is naturally very buoyant, so a boat should be feasible. You might need to add thinner walls to the print with a little bit of infill for stability, but if the print is modeled right, it should be water tight...
I would start with a wide, flat bottomed boat. Something that would be easy to model and print. Actually, check Thingiverse. I bet someone's already done it.

I'll try that out! There are a few creeks near where I live so I bet it would be fun to try a boat out there!

Be sure to let me know how it goes. Actually, make a post about it here on Steem! You ping me, I'll upvote it.
