It's a 3D world, and we're just printing in it!

Or rather we will be...  getting access to a Makerbot when it's delivered in January, so I'm going to stash some notes here.

  • Past experience:  Z Corp color printer, used to print the maquettes for our Zoetrope.
  • Thingiverse id: marhar.
  • Makerware here.  This takes your STL files and generates gcode which is sent to the printer.
  • What modelling software to use?  Around here everybody has of course experience with Maya.
  • Makerbot has a guide  that lists lots of options.  Chris Anderson uses 123D, so I guess I'll start with that.  If my stuff looks bad blame him!



Makerbot... must... resist...

Here's an amazing (to me!) Thingiverse upload... Ladybird prop guards, ready to print out and stick on.
