| [Blender/Netfabb] Easy way to increase wall thickness? [message #51538] Wed, 18 July 2012 19:21 UTC |

Hi
I tried to get some rings printed, but I received an email saying the wall thickness was an issue and they could not be printed in the gold plated stainless steel or polished alumide
I am still new to modeling and Blender/Netfabb, but with one of these two programs is there an easy way to increase my wall thickness without having to remodel the entire ring?
Thank you!

Yes there is a way.
Get yourself a copy of http://www.marcam.de/cms/viscam-mesh.84.en.html 30 days usable test version
Open your model, click on 'Manipulate surfaces' pick the surface you want. Either right click or goto ' Facets' 'Offset model'. Have a play with the settings. It should work on individual surfaces.

Thank you for the reply
While I was waiting I decided to try redo it, I am almost finished I think, Hopefully it will work out!
I will keep that in mind for the next time this issue arises
