Hi all,
I'm trying to print an extruder for my next printer build. I'm using the following STL file
link to the extruder on thingiverse
I want to print at 0.3mm layer height but I have problems with the support block and the bridging for closing the bearing slot (see picture). I sliced with slic3r and normally I can bridge great distances. I killed the print because it didn't seem right...
Do I need to print this part with 0.2mm layer height? Or do I need to enable support material in Slic3r. I prefer to ask this because my spool of blue PLA is almost finished and still need to print the extruder with the same color.
EDIT: now I realise that these "issues" may be part of the cleanup but I do not know for sure since I never printed this extruder. So if you ever printed the body of a wades type extruder please report if this stringing is normal or not.
