Treefrog Dual Extruder Conversion

thingiverse

What I provided here is an OpenSCAD script that will cut a model into separate pieces. You need to download MorenaP's Treefrog model separately. The script is designed for dual-extruder printing only, but it can be easily modified to split the model into even more sections for printing with multiple extruders. Model License: The resulting 3D models and prints will be under MorenaP's license terms. You need to see the model's page for details. Basically, they are for private use only. Don't use them commercially or post them anywhere. MorenaP is fine with people posting pictures of makes on Thingiverse. If you intend to post pictures elsewhere, be sure to ask permission. OpenSCAD Script License: You are free to modify and share my script as you see fit. In fact, I encourage it. While my script is reasonably good, there is always room for improvement. Just remember the model license details mentioned above. How to use: 01. Install OpenSCAD if you haven't already. 02. Download MorenaP's Treefrog model and my OpenSCAD script. 03. Put the model STL (treefrog_45_cut.stl) and OpenSCAD script (treefrog-dual-conversion.scad) in the same folder. 04. Load the script in OpenSCAD. 05. Press F6 or click Design > Render. This may take a long time, depending on your computer. 06. Save the result as an STL. Press F7 or click File > Export > Export as STL. Use whatever file name you like. 07. Change "part = 0;" to "part = 1;" at the top line in the OpenSCAD editor. 08. Press F6 or click Design > Render. This may take a long time, depending on your computer. 09. Save the result as an STL. Press F7 or click File > Export > Export as STL. Use whatever file name you like. 10. Import the two new STL files into your slicer. You know what to do now.
