Embedded Files
Completed joint design in Rhino
Troubleshooting errors in Simplify 3D - adjusted thickness, tried turning into mesh, scaling up
Octopus body curve designs in Rhino
Octopus body prototype in Rhino, planned to do revolve command but it not create individual legs
First print -- joints work, may adjust body to look more aesthetically pleasing
We got really lucky that our prototype worked on the first try! And we didn't have any big printing issues, except that the bed had to be leveled for the first abdomen print.
slicing for 14 more leg joints in Prusa --- there were a ton of supports to remove
working on new designs
Final Octopus
really happy/proud with/of our final print :)
