This is a battery cell case that was a pain last time I printed it with supports Model: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5240533/files
minus-squareImgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up17·1 year agoOhh nice, battery pez dispenser! Is that considered a raft + supports or just supports on there?
minus-squarepetey@aussie.zoneOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·1 year agoJust supports, I had to manually paint them in to prevent the slicer from putting them all the way up the side
minus-squareTest_Tickles@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·1 year agoIn Orca slicer, if you use tree supports and hybrid, an option appears (advanced must be enabled) for something like “Essential supports only”. It is so much better than spending all that time adding or blocking supports.
minus-squarepetey@aussie.zoneOPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 year agoOoh thanks I’ll give that a try
minus-squareanguo@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoWould that be equivalent to PrusaSlicer’s “automatic painting”?
minus-squareTest_Tickles@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·1 year agoI have no clue about that. I only recently stumbled across the orca setting while waging my own battle against excessively aggressive supports.
minus-squarepapalonian@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·1 year agoLooks like the model is just resting on supports. Might have a roof or “support interface” (a layer between supports and model)
