Simulated Drop Cloths
thingiverse
Blender has an advanced cloth modeling system that realistically animates objects like different types of fabric. A fun trick is placing various items between a cloth object and the floor then capturing its fall for multiple frames. If your slicer can determine the "inside" area beneath a dome or extrude plastic along the perimeter, printing will be straightforward. The provided .blend file demonstrates this technique, and BlenderCookie offers a comprehensive tutorial on utilizing cloth simulation features: http://www.blendercookie.com/2010/08/17/cloth-simulation/. To enhance shape, apply Blender's "solidify" modifier for potential Shapeways submission. However, note that SuperSkein slicing results may surpass expectations compared to SkeinForge; access its GitHub repository at http://github.com/MaskedRetriever/SuperSkein/archives/master and download a standalone application from http://github.com/MaskedRetriever/SuperSkein/downloads.
