General tips

<videoflash>oy6gteUXlsY</videoflash>

  • Read the whole manual before starting to get an overview of the building steps (total: 12 hours of assembly).
  • The FoldaRap is made of a base frame and several sub-assemblies. Some can be done in parallel to save time, gather your friends and establish a new building time record !
  • Work on a cutting mat if you have one: it will protect your table plus they often show a millimetre grid that can be useful to check the bolts length (with experience you will recognize them by looking or holding one).
  • Place your mouse over a picture to know the element name.
  • Do not hesitate to have a look at the 3D model in SketchUp (before/during the build): it will show you the folded/unfolded state of the machine and you can play around with it.

1st printing

Modelling

Netfabb Basic

Check the quality of your .stl file on Netfabb Basic: you might "repair" or re-arrange your .stl file on Netfabb

If the automatic repair doesn't wotk: use the red cross button to identify the origin of the problem and re-open your file under the CAD software extension to correct the problem manually (don't forget to re-export the model as a .stl file)

Slic3r

Define the printing parameters of your model in Slic3r

Pronterface

Drive your 3D-printer with Pronterface

Your Mondrian is now ready. Have a lot of fun with your projects!
