Tubular Structures
====================
This project aims to build a number of useful structures out of
easily sourceable aluminium tubes that easily fit in the boot of
a compact car and custom 3Dprinted joints.
Already buildable structures include a number of banner stands and
parasols.
Instructions
------------
Building the 3D models
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To generate the .stl files for each piece you need Make (tested with
`GNU Make`_) and OpenSCAD_; one you have installed these
dependencies just run::
$ make
from the root directory of this repository and wait.
Example settings for Slic3r_ are available in the conf directory:
you can load them in Slic3r, change the settings (expecially those
related to the printer) and re-export them in place.
Then you can use::
$ make gcode
from the root directory of the repository to generate .gcode files
which can be sent to your printer.
.. _`GNU Make`: https://www.gnu.org/software/make/
.. _OpenSCAD: http://www.openscad.org/
.. _Slic3r: http://slic3r.org/
Assembly
~~~~~~~~
To assembly most structures you'll need a number of 1m long aluminium
tubes; the models assume that they are 16mm in diameter, but they can be
customized.
Readme
~~~~~~
The file README.md is generated from README.rst with::
pandoc -o README.md README.rst
and is included in the repo for the benefit of gitorious.
