Bone Folders

thingiverse

This is a set of bone folders, one with sharp edges and one with slightly rounded over edges. When I lost my previous bone folder in a move, I didn't feel the need to buy a new one for 10 bucks, and besides, 40 minutes to print both is better than 2 days to wait for one in the post (I still love you Amazon Prime). For those of you who are unfamiliar, a bone folder is simply a bone or plastic tool designed to allow one to make sharp folds and creases in paper while minimizing finger fatigue, often used in book binding and origami due to the large amount of paper folding in both of these crafts. In addition to .stl files for both folders, the download includes the Autodesk Inventor .ipt files needed to edit the models should anyone choose to do so (I welcome you to make them suite your needs!). Print Settings Printer Brand: Wanhao Printer: Wanhao Duplicator i3 V2 Rafts: Doesn't Matter Supports: Yes Resolution: Whatever you see fit, although too low may leave an uneven finish on paper Infill: doesn't matter Notes: I printed in whatever PLA I had on hand at 60% infill because I like to really work my folders hard :p. I laid them on the bed lengthwise at a 45 degree angle, as is seen in one of the pictures, with a support underneath the elevated areas.
