Description

As part of the Tree Imaging Machine (TIM), there are necessary components to be 3D printed. A more detailed description, assembly instructions, and usage info can be found on the GitHub.


All of the components were printed out of ABS on a Bambu Carbon X1 using 0.08mm layer height. Supports were unfortunately necessary for most prints.
