Topic: printing multiple objects
Is it possible to print multiple objects at the same time? Like can you load more than one objects on the bed ?

yes, it's not a problem at all.
Depends... If you're using just using a slicing program;
Skeinforge you'd have to combine the models in a 3rd program (like ReplicatorG) to get it to slice together.
Slic3r allows you to place multiple objects on the bed and then slice them.
In RH, you can place the objects then slice (skein or Slic3r) then print... handy, no?
Edit:
Dang, Chris, I'm too WORDY! ![]()
Repetier-Host simplifies this process better then most. Add the stl files in RH, move them around to the locations that you want them and then slice with slic3r or use Repetier-Host to save the all of the objects to a new single STL file to load into another slicing application.
ok thank you.

Have you tried that with KISSlicer?
Kisslicer will only let you load 1 stl unless you buy the Pro version for $40. So it is still helpful to combine the STL's in RH and then slice in kisslicer if you prefer it over slic3r.
But yes, I did this process yesterday with Lawsy's mk4 holder using RH/Kisslicer

I get some weird mess ups trying to use KISSlicer trying to make Lawsy'a MK4. In fact none slice it right. Most lose the part next to the extruder motor, becomes a hole instead of thin wall
I've found that KISSlicer has touble with walls that are meant to be a single thread. I was making windows for a house model, and made the window panes .35mm so that they would print as a single thread. KS wasn't able to do it, and I had to slice those in Slic3r. The review in RepRap Magazine found the same thing. You can get a 1 perimeter wall if you slice something hollow with 1 perimeter, but printing something that was designed to be a single thread is a different matter.
Ian, that sucks since Kisslicer is the only one with the easy to use 'vase' infill option
I'm beginning to think nickythegreek is part owner of kisslicer. haha
Vase is printing a solid object with no fill which works fine. KS has trouble with walls that are designed to be .35 regardless of fill.
