If you should round them a little bit (see the design rules): it would be safer.

also have you added a slit that goes through the handle? will that print ok?

3mm width i do this to make the cup with less material i don't know if it will print ok that have to be tested i will check that too thanks for the advice Smile ]]> joseng 2012-04-13T00:33:00-00:00 Re: the egg cup http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=46915&th=9111#msg_46915 For sure, this pricing model is very different from what wa are used to, and it is quite paradoxal....]]> Magic 2012-04-13T05:33:50-00:00 Re: the egg cup http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=46919&th=9111#msg_46919 pdb 2012-04-13T08:46:05-00:00 Re: the egg cup http://www.shapeways.com/forum/index.php?t=rview&goto=47206&th=9111#msg_47206
