Dear Autodesk Community,
I working right now on a Designproject for university, I'm doing a foldable origami lunchbox. I calculated evry lenght of the pattern etc, now we want to 3Dprint it. Therefore we need a good stl modell. Therefore I need your help in two points:
#1 In the picture below you can see the sketch that I did for the box, also some protoyps already. Now I want to group all the planes and extrude them together, so I will have a part which is a whole part without overlapping edges etc. But I cannot do it all. I guess its also because of the different directions of the plane but I don't know what to do anymore.
#2 Is that for the 3D print we need the sideplanes (the triangles) to be 0.8 mm but the foldinglines should be 0.4mm and 1 mm wide. How would you make sure that the folding lines have a different thickness. Maybe there is a elegant way to thin the thickness up there.
It would be so great, if anybody could help me. My Paper and plastic prototypes worked so good already and I already found the right filament for printing, now I stuck with the construcion which is just so sad.
Thank you so much already
