I'm pretty sure I printed the chainmail with 0% infill and only 2 shells.
Basically there's no piece thick enough to worry about infill.
Could have been 10% though - is there any way of reading an x3g file to tell what the settings are ?
Anyway it was either 10% or 0% infill and 2 shells.
And the links really didn't need breaking. Not like the gear wheel - this was pretty much loose when i peeled it off the bed.
Just reduced the clasp size on the bracelet - and yep - it's looking like a long openscad compile.
Even on my quadcore desktop.
Basically he's got a 10mm slab of plastic before the male tongue of the clasp. As far as I cna see it's just to match the size of the femal component. Which is daft as it gives you a 20mm thick solid bit of unbendy plastic. I've just cut the 10mm block down to 2mm. Which is sufficient for strength and should give the bracelet a bit more flexibility.
It is an amazing thing. Needs to be a bit longer, Presumably i can add more rows.
Just a shame I can't do it in abs. As I could mix the two different thermochromatic filament I've got.
That said I'll probably buy some thermo chromatic pla for the job :-)Last edited by curious aardvark; 10-07-2014 at 07:00 PM.
