3D Printer Genealogy

• Folgertech Prusa i3 - 2016; deprecated, entry level model for quick learning; not high on OSE Spec of modularity + scalability.
• D3D - builds started in 2017 - using the Universal Axis system
• D3D Germany
• D3D Australia
• D3D Saudi Arabia
• D3D v18.01 - started to keep track by month because there are too many.
• D3D_Ohio_v18.02

{{Hint|Note that to design new versions, you want to use small, simple files. We have ones ~20k for each axis - with the critical features - according to File Simplification.

• Simplified axis files - X, Y, Z - the smallest ones today are at D3D CNC Circuit Mill
• D3D Integration has files that are on the order of 5MB and 1MB for each axis. Still too large for prototyping.
