      May I ask a hint for the 3D "surprise"?

      If I were to tell you, it would spoil the surprise part 😄

        Hi Guys From I Materialise,

        I have a question. I've been working on a model of a house and Its nearly finnished. I was thinking about sending this model as a contribution to the challenge. Iwas just wondering if there are any limitations. The design consists of a boxed shape design, but the walls are covered with woodstrips( 5cm/5cm ) with a spacing of about 4/5 cm between them. The strips are all connected so there are no floating geometry. But I think the woodstrips may be to small for 3d printing.

        Greetz,

        Twan

          Hello Twan,

          It might be the case that some of the parts of your design might be too small for 3D printing. Objects smaller then 1mmx1mm are normally too small. You can use our plugin to scale your model and then check the sizes of smaller elements of your model.

          Good luck on the challenge. If you have any additional questions, feel free to leave a reply, we'll be happy to help.

                  Small problem - that document refers me to a manual which seems to be included only in the Windows based wizard….

                    Dear Tim,

                    The document is in PDF format, you will probably need to install Adobe Reader to be able to view the file.

                    Let us know if you need additional support.

                      No problems at all reading a PDF (this is a Mac, after all), but on page 2, section 5 it refers us back to your website (http://i.materialise.com/Tool/CreateYourArchitecturalModel) which in the section 'Design Tips' says "Please check our manual (enclosed in the wizard) for design tips". Of course, there is the cunningly hidden part 2 of the "How does this work" section where I should have noticed a download for the actual manual. 😳
