Based on what I learned with my initial printing and some suggestions from Russell and Graham I started modelling my design with fabrication in mind. The idea was to laser cut the rib elements from cardboard, considering they were all identical this would be easy. The floor elements however were all unique and required individual modelling and fabrication.
I took each of the floor elements and butterfly split them down the middle. The idea being that I could glue the two halves together to form a single floor plank. This would mean that the cleanly printed top surface would be the exposed surface.
