Creating curves/surfaces for 3DP

[houlahound]

I bought a 3DP,very cheap one. I want to create objects in 3D from mathematical equations not solid geometry design tools, prefer to use Mathematica.

I would like to print a cycloid section.

Any tips hot to make this printable.

I just did a search, and found this: http://reference.wolfram.com/language/guide/3DPrinting.html
It looks like a pretty good place to start.
