Customizable Chains

pinshape

Chain links to create your own length of chain. An example file is attached to show how to arrange links. When arranging, make sure that none of the links touch each other. Support Material: No Infill: 100% Note: The links will have >45 degree overhangs when arranged properly so print this file with PLA with the cooling fan on. (ABS material profiles for most slicers have the fan turned off) Brim: Recommended Tip: Try pausing the print when half done and hook an object like a keychain to one of the links to permanently attach it to the chain. To convert the .txt file into a .step file for editing (for Windows users): Open the file in Notepad but do not edit anything. Go to File -> Save As... Type a new file name exactly as shown "[your new file name].scad" (including the quotes). Save the file and you're done. You can now open the .step file in any usual 3D modeling software.
