I created a 7.5 inch Nipkow Disk 3D printer STL file using a 2D drawing to 3D output program. It requires about 17.5 meters of PLA plastic filament. There is 340 meters of plastic filament on a reel. My 3D printer would take approximately 5 1/2 hours to print the 7.5 inch disk. The disk is currently designed to be 2 mm thick. The 2D drawing and screen snapshot of the 3D file is attached. I might try printing one out in the next couple days when I'll be home all day. I just got the 3D printer a couple months ago and haven't printed anything which took over 1 1/2 hours to print.
