Dear forum,

I really like the Ultimaker 2 support material that comes with the 3d models (see the picture at http://postimg.org/image/wauq3qe0p/ or the preview below). Now I would like to make whole surfaces of that kind of material, including the nice surface shapes. So let's say an A5 size 3d printable surface inspired by these support materials. What would be the best way to make these? Is there an easy way, or should I draw all individual lines in a 3d modelling programme. I use Rhinoceros 5 but am open to other suggestions of course.

Thanks very much in advance,

Douwe

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
