3D Print Files

FREE, Pre-supported files on Cults3D

All 3D Printed Zoetrope animations start with STLs (or OBJs), but for resin prints, pre-supported files are best. Tetras was designed to be printable in filament, but Fish and Frogs need a resin printer and the pre-supported Lychee files are “print & play”. The BoneUrchin has been printed in filament – although the smallest and almost-hidden inner core fingers were probably lost.

Universally Compatible pre-supported files are available via Lychee STL Export. If you prefer a different slicer, or you’re in a closed system, the free version of Lychee slicer allows you export the pre-supported files as STLs including the supports, so you can use any slicer you like, even Formlabs Preform. Or if necessary you can also export the raw unsupported STL/OBJs, I strongly recommend using the pre-supported files with Lychee slicer though.
