Protocol
- Use FreeCAD CAD files to generate STL files for printing.
- Use the 3D printing softeware to scale the parts for faster printing.
- You can then observe features and fit of parts using such scale models.
Procuring Part Files
Search for similar models available off-shelf using 3D Printing File Repositories. Note that requests can be made to certain sites for generating 3D Printing Files - and uploading them to a repository if the file does not exist already - for free. See list of Services for Generating 3D Printing Files.
