Crenelated3

Believe it or not, this part uses the same basic design as Crenollated1, but with 2 basic changes:

I twisted half of the 10 Loft control cures to the left, and the other half to the rightI changed the method of Loft surface generation from "Tight", which makes the transition from one control curve to the next to be in a straight line, to "Normal" which makes the transitions smooth curves.

I also changed the overall shape of the part to have more consistent outside curvature.



When I printed this part my printer had a partial nozzle clog, which is why the finished part looks the way it does. So I included a rendered image that shows what it should look like without this problem. I'll print Crenollated 2 after I fix the clog; it will look strikingly different because I'll simply go back to the "Tight" Loft option.



This print took a little more than 30.5 hours using a layer height of 0.200 mm and a [print speed of 80 mm/sec.
