This fourth sample in the series is a test of the 3d printer's resolution rather
than the resolution of the digital model. Using the same model I created with
Bryce Pro from my last test (comparing high and low resolution saves of the same
model), I’ve increased the resolution of the printer by one simple alteration in
the Skeinforge settings:
I changed the layer thickness from 0.4mm to 0.3mm and kept all the other
settings as they were:
Perimeter over thickness ratio: 1.55
Infil solidity: 0.1
Feed and flow rate: 40.0mm/s
Here is the rest of the data for this particular print:
294,466 vertices
588,928 faces
3mm ABS filament / .5mm nozzle
Size: 182mm x 174mm x 43mm
Time for Skeinforge to compile: 1hr 42min
146 layers
367,970 lines
Estimated filament length for print: 31,810mm (34.8 yards)
Print time: 12hr 45min
