Fastening Objects in 3D Printing
Contents
Introduction
Fastening parts can involve a variety of issus:
- Parts need to go together and come apart
- Parts print better in parts because of support needs or other issues, then need to be put together, perhaps permanently.
- Parts are too big for printer.
- Parts need only to go together once, the fastening is permanent.
- Parts need to be assembled or disassembled without tools.
- Cost is of importance.
- Joints should/should not be visible.
Depending on the issues there are different methods that you may wish to apply.
