Printing out the station

Attached in this document are all of the .stl (3d printing files) for the various housing components.

While we didn't feel it made sense to share gcodes for the various printing operations, here are some thoughts for settings:

  1. Stay fairly near manufacturers' suggestions for bed and nozzle temperatures unless you are a seasoned 3D printer.
  2. Lower support densities and/or use tree supports to save material, limit post-processing, and increase print quality.
  3. Print multiple parts at once. It saves time.
  4. Print the cap and lid lock for air quality sideways, it'll increase quality significantly.
  5. Print the orb housing with tree supports so that the top threading forms correctly.
