Anyone know of an app that will do this
Really hope this one reaches fruition and doesn't become vaporware.

Re: skin & frame app can save 70% on material
Similar impilmentations of that concept wouldn't be that difficult to add to slicers if it doesn't go anywhere soon.
One thing is they didn't state the process time for generating those models though. If it takes 45 minutes to generate a frame for a 30 minute print, it isn't going to be widely used.
Personally, I'd like to see a slicer impliment a hollow infill that adds extra internal loops for support at a 40° slope such that you avoid bridges and give good consistant surfaces.
