Hi,
I have tried it again and I do not believe this will be printable on a fdm machine like mine. I would see if there is anyone near you with a resin machine as others have stated. It may be able to be printed if it is much bigger than 45mm3. It is just too small for my machine. I don’t know anyone that has a resin machine and could have it done by Thursday, unfortunately.
Sorry I couldn’t help.
These models should be to the scale of 45mm3 if that helps at all.

Hi Francesca,
Working with your thicker framed model, and maxed to fit in a 45mm3 area, I found a new orientation that might just make it possible to print on an FDM printer. Could you have a look at the image and see if that would work for you?

If this is the model I uploaded you may have to check with Francesca that it is the right model. All I did was upscale it though.
Hi George,
Did you want to try that rotation? The new base is the only ‘triangle’ that is connected to the ‘square’.
I have G-code if you want it, or you can try my attached file.
That rotation is less demanding of support material, but of course, a lot of support material is still required.
I think that resin or powder based printing will be a lot more efficient, but I’m not sure that Francesca has the luxury of time to find or get those printed.
As you’re much closer, would you still be able to fulfill this?
If not, let me know. I could just about print these in time, in ABS anyway, if needed. .35mm nozzle, ‘fine’ print is the best I can do though… Some retouching/rework might be needed…

I tell you what I’ll do I’ll try a low quality on with lots of added supports and tell you if it goes well or not. Also I think that a powder or resin would be better suited but there’s none round here that can do it fast enough I had a look through some hubs.
Hi,
I’m now finished with my other customer so if there’s anything I can do let me now. @frankiecheska
