This frame is printed as four members that snap together with the printed inserts. Features:
- Smoother top surface by printing the frame members on their edges.
- Built-in nail holes for wall hanging.
- Fast prints using minimal material.
- Larger possible sizes. Frame members can be oriented diagonally on the build plate, allowing for larger frame and 3D map sizes.
- Multiple profiles and textures (coming soon).
Steps: 1. Identify your 3D Map size (X and Y dimension) 2. Scale the frame. The frames can be scaled to a custom size in the slicer using our Online Frame Scaling Calculator For example, the default frame for 180mm models is 180.2mm. To accomodate a 188mm model with a 0.2mm margin for fit, the scaling factor is 104.44%. 3. Slice, print and snap together! Add a small bead of glue to the ledge of the frame and set the 3D map inside to cure in place.
