Really? You know the Waterman Projection, that iconic map from the 1909 Cahill diagram it's based on - do you have a framed reproduction hanging in your home?! Well I just so happen to own an even larger version at home - my very own 3D printed copy of the Waterman Butterfly World Map, standing proud in its glory! To print out this masterpiece yourself, follow these simple instructions: Split up the original file into four manageable pieces, allowing you to create an enlarged version. Here's what to do next: * Print each section separately - carefully sizing them to fit comfortably within a Rep2 build area * Make sure to pause at two strategic points - Z-height 2.7mm and again at 5.4mm - where filament color changes are recommended for added visual appeal * Get your .gcode files in order, as well as the corresponding print-ready .x3g versions When you're ready to begin printing: * Set the layer height to an impressive 0.1mm * Use 20% Infill for optimal durability and texture * Warm up your Left extruder to a comfortable 200°C During the print process, don't forget to pause at key milestones: once at layer 27 (z-height 2.7mm), then again at layer 54 (z-height 5.4mm) **A Word of Warning**: This map requires a very specific firmware, namely SAILFISH - so be sure to have that updated and ready to go before starting your print
