Problem printing parts

Guys,

I am trying to print some parts that preview fine but the toolpath prints them incomplete ?
Never had this problem before, can anyone help ?

FYI the parts are from the parts separated zip file here - http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:683357/#files

Thanks in advance,

Drew.

Take a look at the rendering on Thingiverse. Kinda fubar in those areas... ;)

Maybe run it through netfabb first and see.

Yup, the STL models look like they have several issues.

Yep, the author has now re-done them :)

On a side note whenever I try the identify non-manifold edges on the mac version (latest) it always just crashes ?

Hmm.. it has never crashed on my mac when checking for non-manifold. What hardware do you have? Does it only crash on a particular mode, or is it every model?
