Print BIGGER Than Your 3D Printer! ⏩The "Wandering Square" Trick ⏪

Konstantinos Froudarakis
in Modeling
0 0 Intermediate
Diablo II teaches us that the path of a Dark Wanderer leads to chaos. But the path of the Square Wanderer, however, leads to perfectly assembled, massive 3dprint. Today at ExMachina Engineering, we're showing you how to master the latter. This method moves beyond a simple slice-and-dice, creating strong, perfectly aligned, and nearly invisible seams. It's time to say goodbye to guesstimate-joints and alignment headaches and turn your standard 3D printer into a monster-sized fabrication tool.

They said it #cantbedone... They said, there is no Linear/Linear Coupler in #Alibre like there is in #Solidworks! But think about it... 🤔 Who's They???😮 In any case, saying something is impossible is the best way to get me to do it. So, here it is: A fully functional Telescopic Assembly with controlled motion ratios, built entirely with existing Alibre constraints.

In this tutorial, we'll walk you through the process of creating a circular heat shield in Alibre Design Expert using the Sheet Metal environment. We'll focus on the Bend Only option of the Flange command, demonstrating how to use it twice in a row to make the material form a circle. This technique allows the radius of the formed circle to be collinear with the tab from which the flange originated... Roughly...

As the title suggests, I have watched Woody Allen's amazing commentary on Sex and the socio-biological ramifications of it. But back to SheetMetal in CAD. In this video, you will find everything you need to get started making Sheet Metal parts, making good parts and doing it reliably by verifying your design as you go along.
