Hello everybody,

I have a 3D Printer on its way (Ultimaker 2 Standard Size), and would love to be able to make an Astrolabacus with it. The trouble is, I am an absolute beginner at 3D Design, so I was wondering if anyone had the STL files for an Astrolabacus (puzzle size doesn't have to match the original). I know that Tony Fisher printed an Astrolabacus last year. I believe that the entire puzzle would be legal, as the patent for the original Astrolabacus has expired.

For the small balls inside, I think that I may get them printed through Shapeways.

Thanks very much for all your help (in advance).

[NOTE: I have posted this on the TP forum also].
