3d printing a GH gyroid

The attached Gyroid picture is made up of 1518 closed meshes. Produced by the  attached script. If I were to print this Gyroid ?

1. What's missing to make a 3d printed object? (besides a 3d printer)  :)

2. Do I have to clean up the 1518 closed meshes and make them 1 mesh ?

3. What to do about thickness ? etc.

Thanks all for your contributions, I did some experiments, cut the gyroid to have edges on a sphere. I used quite the same script as here http://www.grasshopper3d.com/forum/topics/help-15?xg_source=activity,

Remeshing was done with MeshMixer. Cocoon was used but not the refinement. I smooth the mesh with Laplacian Smooth.

Laurent: I like it......I also have a few Gyroid scripts lying around.
