Description
This is a pen holder for the MakerBot.
I did this new design, although there already exists at least one other pen holder design on thingiverse (http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:790).
The main difference: It's only one simple part.
There are two stl files:
- Stifthalter_1part.stl: This contains the part layed out at a 45° angle. That way it easily fits on the MakerBot build platform. This file is best printed without a raft.
- Stifthalter_1part_horizontal.stl: The same object but layed out at 90°. That way a raft would be much smaller, but the object uses almost the complete width of the build platform...

There was no OpenSCAD back then... this object was designed in Cinema4d and I'm not sure if such a soure file would be of any more help for you as the already attached stl file (which you should be able to open and modify in blender).
Source files?
what software was used to generate the gcode?
