Description

PDF

To print the included STLs you need the following settings:
* 0.4mm line width

* 110% flow rate

* Top/bottom thickness of 0.6mm

* Spiralize outer contour enabled

* Smooth Spiralize Contour disabled

Explanation:

* The provided models will only slice properly if you have your line width set to 0.4mm. The outer stiffening wall is 0.8mm thick and needs to fit two line widths in order to work in vase mode.
* For best results and rigidity, the thickness of your bottom layers should be 0.6mm. While not required, having a thinner bottom layer will make the maze less durable. I printed all the mazes in my video with a 0.2mm initial layer height and three bottom layers. The marble will be unable to roll around with a thickness higher than 1mm.
* In order for the walls to actually bond to each other, the wall lines need to be overextruded. Over-Extruding the plastic by 10% is enough to straddle the 0.03mm gap in the STLs.
* I've run into bugs with trying to print it in normal mode with 0% infill and zero top layers. Vase mode is required for proper printing. 
* Enabling Smooth Spiralize Contour has the side effect of making every line slightly unparallel with the walls of the maze.

All of the mazes in here were randomly generated using OpenSCAD and Daedalus. I have uploaded three mazes generated with each type of maze generation algorithm that Daedalus supports.
