Hey guys. I was wondering if anyone had and ideas / knew of an existing stl for a paper folder or folding document organizer. I couldn’t find anything on thangs or printables that would keep the paper from bending over time.
Anyone have any thoughts or ideas? I would be using this to store print outs and related documents from a pen and paper rpg.
You could. If you need to make struts longer than your print bed, 45 degree angle dovetail joints are easy to print on any FDM machine in any orientation, and if you leave one nozzle width’s of clearance (0.4mm in most cases) they will slide together with an interference fit quite securely. These could also be glued.
Also bear in mind that large flat surfaces printed horizontally are the slowest thing to print, since they inevitably require 2-4 complete layers of 100% fill on their top and bottom surfaces. The more long flat things you can print standing on their edges instead, the better.
