Description
This is a version of the Mendel frame_vertex_6off that
should in theory cause less warping.
Please test as my printer is currently out of order due to an electrical malfunction.

This design is a really elegant way to avoid warp, but I found it quite fiddly to print and not sufficiently rigid / strong for use. However, your design did inspire me to hack my own...

I just printed this part and even though there should be massive warping with the settings I deliberately used there was NONE AT ALL. It came out perfect!!

Good idea for improving build time for RP parts. Keep in mind a couple golden rules:
1. Exterior wall thickness
&
gt; Rib thickness
2. Rigid exterior walls should be at LEAST 2mm thick with adequate ribs

In general, what are the design principles one can follow to avoid warping? When making my own objects? If you know of a good blog entry or forum post, let me know...

The link original thread where we disussed and tested some no longer works since a forum upgrade some time ago but the principle is described in words there.
