selfmade 3D model printed with reprap

dear friends of RepRap

today i read about that kind of printer on orf.at - sounds extremly interesting for me! didn't know if i have the technical knowledge to build and work with this prototyp.

currently i have a 3D model which maybe could realised with this 3D printer - could anybody of you have a look on www.alexgrimm.com/de/index/fullview/year/10/work/135/view/2 and give me a feedback if this model could be 3D printed!

thanks a lot
kind regards

Hi Alex,

... if you can assemble the model from two parts (legs and upper body) then tis wouldn't be a problem.

Bigger 'overhangs' are a bit tricky but some guys solved this too with supporting cobweb-structures ...

Hi Alex,

... check the german forum, especially "Hi German RepRappers, where are you located?" - i know there are some reprappers in Berlin too ...

*** EDIT: checked the posts and noticed that the German forums had mainly suffered from the "Umlaut"-bug ... many posts are truncated after the first occurance of a special sign ... and nobody managed to repair the truncation

So maybe ask your question anew there ...

It was the only way to wipe out the heavy-metal bands that were terrorizing the forum. Apparently we were only backing up latin characters from the mysql database that held the forum, iirc. Sorry.
