Group Assignment
For our group assignment in the architecture section, we went over 3d-printing and 3d-scanning. For 3d-printing, Diana explained to us a basic workflow for our Bambu printers, as we did a quick test together: Rhino model -> OBJ/STL -> Bambu Studio -> Gcode -> the Bambu printer
For 3d-scanning, we used the Creality app to scan Kareem's hand and we discussed other scanning options with different setups and requirements. As it is, there already exist good 3d-scanning tools you can run on your phone.
INDIVIDUAL ASSIGNMENT
Quadrapod Bot
Step 1: CAD
Step 2: Slicing
Support Material
I used Ultimaker Cura's slicing software.
There, "Normal Support" proved to generate
1.5h more printing time than "Organic Support"
Step 3: 3D-Printing
Test Print
I ran an initial print to make sure
the standard settings,plus the "organix support",
would work properly
Failed Grouped Print
I tried 3d-printing multiple components
at the same time, yet, I failed to cosider that
it would require 4 times more material (it ran out)
Succesful Grouped Print
After ensuring there would be enough material for each print
I set up multiple group prints to get all the pieces in 3 runs.
Fortunately, all of them were succesful
Step 4: Assembly
Step 5: Deployment
