Assembly and Printing Guide

• You can use the assembly guide published on Instructables to help you assemble the NOVA-C (IM-1).

Tips

Settings

• For infill, 10% is sufficient for a decorative object
• For some parts the supports will be necessary, see the assembly guide and impressions.
• If some parts are loose or don't fit, you can change the scale by +/- 1% in the slicer to get a better fit. 

Printing

• For a better final result, I recommend printing the Jonction_Block last so that you can adjust their size according to your print and have a better fit during assembly. 
• Follow the printing guide published on Instructables.

Post Printing

• You may need to sand the junction areas between the parts for a smoother finish.
• Additionally, I recommend using glue for better strength and durability.
• Follow the assembly guide published on Instructables.
