Ultimaker 2 Template for Simplify3D

This is a remix of Mike Bogutsch&apos;s (fortwienix) Wanhao Template for S3D, 
<a href="http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2298799" rel="external">http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2298799</a> 
Many thanks for his permission to use his instructions as below.

(The template I have made is for Simplify3D but I have read somewhere that it also works with other slicers.)

At the moment the Template is for the Ultimaker2, UMO and UM3 may follow shortly 

Simplify3D template Installation:

Copy the stl file (e.g. UltimakerPrintBed.stl) to the following folder: 
 C: \ Users \ USERNAME \ AppData \ Local \ Simplify3D \ S3D software 
Start Simplify3D and export your FFF profile to the desktop (File-&gt; Export FFF profile) 
Open the profile with an editor e.g:Notepad and search for the following entries (about line 145 ish).... 
overridePrinterModels&gt;0 
printerModelsOverride&gt;&lt;/printerModelsOverride 
.....change the upper value from 0 to 1 and in the second line enter the name of the template. like below

overridePrinterModels&gt;1 
 printerModelsOverride&gt;TEMPLATE NAME.STL&lt;/printerModelsOverride 
If overridePrinterModels already is set to 1, you do not need to change this.

Save the FFF profile and import it back to Simpify3D 
Restart Simplify3D

Tip: 
If you think the template is not centered. Import the model to Simplify3D, change the position and Export the model (File-&gt;Export Models-&gt;Export Binary STL)

Since there&apos;s no S3D profile, and also Simplify3D guys are the kind of people that make pretty bad profiles for Ultimaker machines, I decided to make some basic FFF so Ultimaker 3 users can use it if they have it.

Kudos to Tinkergnome &amp; Ultimaker for letting us play with their toys.

<h1>Ukulele Bass</h1>

This bass is inspired by the Kala Ubass. It is almost fully printable, except for &quot;serious&quot; mechanics, I wanted to be able to do a real setup with correct intonation, therefor this design uses a Fender style bridge. The strings are ThunderGut standard strings. As seen on pictures there is a hole in the bottom intended to be used with a Fishmann Presys Blend pickup system.
