Large objects.
Posted: Fri Sep 07, 2018 8:47 am
Right now I am trying to print a thin object that is too big in two dimensions to lay flat, in fact it is too big to lay on any of its surfaces, so the only way I can get it within the build envelope is to tip it up onto a very short edge.
As currently arranged in Cura it is 10 mm x 241.9 mm x 306.8 mm (1532 layers) and it is "balancing" on that 10 mm edge.
My problem seems to be to get all the needed support material to stick - support material seems to be deliberately "fragile" so that it will breakaway, I can understand that, but I would like to get it to adhere WELL to the glass.
Any hints, tips for settings to get this to happen would be appreciated.
