Abstract:
A technique for additive manufacturing that avoids the necessity of having a build plate. The illustrative embodiment comprises two anchor plates from which a structure is constructed that forms at least the initial support for the object to be manufactured. The envelope of the structure can be a cylinder, a box, an n-sided prism, a hyperboloid of one sheet, a cone, the frustum of a cone, a pyramid, and the frustum of a pyramid.

Claim (Index 13):
A machine for additively manufacturing a three-dimensional object by providing a filament nest, the machine comprising:\n a first anchor plate that comprises (filament anchors labeled p(1,0) through p(1, f\u22121), wherein f is an odd positive integer; a second anchor plate that comprises f filament anchors labeled p(2,0) through p(2, f\u22121); and the filament nest comprising a fiber-reinforced filament that is laced from filament anchor p(1,a) to filament anchor p(2,b) to filament anchor p(1,c), and that is anchored to the first anchor plate at filament anchors p(1,a) and p(1,c) and to the second anchor plate at filament anchor p(2,b); wherein\n b =( a+e )modulo  f  \n and \n c=+e )modulo  f;  \n wherein a, b, and c are non-negative integers in the range 0\u2264a, b, c<f; and wherein e is a positive integer such that e<f and e and f are relatively prime.
