"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

It discusses lubricating smooth rods and lead screws, cleaning the PEI bed and hot end components, loading and unloading filament, adjusting live z-height for the first layer, strategies for clearing clogs, replacing the hot end, tightening belts, tuning Cura profiles, and using the print management app. The goal is to help users fine tune their JellyBOX printer and troubleshoot common issues.
This document provides an overview of the 3D printing process from modeling to printing. It discusses using Tinkercad to model basic 3D objects from shapes and then import them into Cura for slicing. In Cura, the model can be scaled, rotated, and positioned on the print bed. The document highlights practical applications of these tools like fitting multiple objects on the print bed or orienting parts to minimize supports.
This document provides an overview of 3D modeling options for 3D printing, including Tinkercad, OpenSCAD, Blender, and SculptGL. It discusses considerations for 3D model design such as sizing, positioning, and detail sizing. It then covers the basic functions of Tinkercad such as adding shapes, moving objects, rotating, resizing, grouping, and holes. For OpenSCAD, it explains how to use primitive shapes, 2D objects like text, importing STL files, and transformations like translating, rotating, and resizing objects. It also introduces constructive solid geometry operations in OpenSCAD like union, difference, and intersection.
This document provides tips and techniques for troubleshooting 3D printing issues in Cura, including how to move, scale, rotate, and mirror objects; use layer view to check for first layer issues or missing details; increase line width or horizontal expansion to prevent missing walls; add supports or increase infill to strengthen weak points; check for bridging or overhang capabilities; and use the 3D Builder app to repair modeling issues. The document demonstrates how to optimize object placement, orientation, and settings in Cura to improve print quality and success.

This presentation is on SlideShare at:
http://www.slideshare.net/VickyTGAW/3d-design-with-openscad
2. OpenSCAD – Download
• Free 3D Modeling Software
• Available for Windows, Linux, and MacOS
• Good at “clean” models (taking some of
worry out of the process– you can be
oblivious to “non-manifold” and “bad
face normals”)
• Because it’s instruction-base, it’s easy to
visualize measurements and come back
and tweak it
http://www.openscad.org/downloads.html
3. OpenSCAD – User Manual
Don’t Be Intimidated!
You Don’t Have to Memorize the Syntax!
Online User Manual
https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/OpenSCAD_User_Manual
Quick Cheat Sheet
http://www.openscad.org/cheatsheet/
4. OpenSCAD – Anatomy of User Interface
Text Editor – Where we put our
instructions (“code”)
Viewing Area – Your handiwork!
Renders of the model.
Console – Technical information
about what’s going on (progress
on rendering, any error
messages)
5. OpenSCAD – Text Editor Commands
Icons to create new files, save, undo, redo, indent,
preview, render, and most importantly for 3D Printing--
export to STL format.
6. OpenSCAD – Text Editor to Viewing Area
To see how your work looks, you can:
• Use Preview ( ) or Render ( ) icons
• Use the Design->Preview or Design->Render menu options
• Or the fastest option - use F5 for Preview and F6 for Render
7. OpenSCAD – Viewing Area Commands
Commands for Viewing, Rendering, Zooming In, Changing Views, Turning On or Off
Axis and Measurements Display, Showing Edges Versus Faces
8. OpenSCAD – The Mouse & the Viewing Area
• Left clicking and dragging allows you to rotate your view
• Right clicking and dragging pans the view
• Scroll wheel allows you to zoom in and out
9. OpenSCAD – Syntax Common Themes
• ; - The end of an instruction (ie make a cube;)
• // - A comment or label– for your purposes– will be ignored by the
viewing area
• { } - Grouping of commands
• [x,y,z] – “Vectors” (Coordinates, 3D sizes)
Reference: https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/OpenSCAD_User_Manual/General
10. OpenSCAD – Primitive Objects – Cube
cube([10,10,10]); cube([10,20,30]);cube([x, y, z]);

module base_sphere()
{
sphere(r=9, $fn=100);
}
module curved_VT()
{
intersection()
{
sphere(r=9.25, $fn=100);

for ( i = [start : increment : end] )
{ //your code }
for (i=[0:5:15])
{
translate([i,0,0])
cylinder(r=1, h=15, $fn=36);
}
Translation– We are going to start at 0. Every 5 mm, draw a
cylinder until we reach 15mm.
Reference: https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/OpenSCAD_User_Manual/Conditional_and_Iterator_Functions#For_Loop
37. OpenSCAD – Advanced - Loops
“Nested Loops”
for ( i = [start : increment : end], j = [start : increment : end] )
{ //your code }
for (i=[0:5:15],j=[0:5:20])
{
translate([i,j,0])
cylinder(r=1, h=15, $fn=36);
}
Translation– We going to end up with 20 pegs in 4 columns
and 5 rows.
Reference: https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/OpenSCAD_User_Manual/Conditional_and_Iterator_Functions#For_Loop
38. OpenSCAD – Troubleshooting

(maybe there’s a semi colon after a translate)
• Check the Console for error messages (which would include a
line number)
39. OpenSCAD – Troubleshooting
• echo allows you to send details to the Console
• // allows you to comment out instructions so you can narrow
down the culprit
echo("i:", i, " j:", j);
40. OpenSCAD – Troubleshooting
• # allows you to have objects highlighted
