Especially if the meshes don't need to deform, have exquisite normals, or to be kept as low-poly as possible. 3D printing doesn't need to fuss about those things. | |

However this also falls prey to the same issue i was experiencing in that the spacing of the holes get further apart when the width of the object increases. | |
