Print instructions

If you bought a Builder kit you can skip ahead but if you have the Maker kit you have to 3D print the parts but Otto is very well designed for 3D printing, so wont give you trouble if you follow this common parameters:

Recommended to use a FDM 3D printer.
No need supports or rafts.
Resolution: 0.3mm or 0.2mm for better resolution
Fill density 15%

All parts in total use 100gr aprox. equivalent to 35m of regular PLA 1.75mm thickness, it should take around 5 hours to 3D print a full set of parts for one Otto even less with optimized settings depending on your printer and slicer.
