Say you want to embed a hinge pin into your part. You want to print as close as possible, without crashing into it. A "Print Around Object" feature will stop at a certain height to allow for insertion, and also calculate the clearances required to avoid hitting the pin with the nozzle.

I agree that the S3D developers should not rip off ideas from other slicer developers...but rather have initiative in their own right. Cura is open source... The very strictest definition of that is "do what you want". Maybe the code license if cura doesn't permit pasting the code into s3d source, ...

It would be helpful to be able to print around an object so it is embedded inside. For instance, a hinge pin, a nut, etc.

Thanks

I don't know if it's been fixed or not, but it's an old bug:

viewtopic.php?f=9&t=1768#p13011

I ended up connecting the printer directly to the s3d pc.

Nevermind, I didn't zoom in enough.

Too much coast if it's at the end of the perimiter, not enough prime if at start).

I think it is sink (to use a molding term) where the plastic cools and pulls in. Try cooler, slower, or more fan.

Fusion 360 is not "web based" but rather heavily leveraging Cloud/web for storage.

Can you store locally instead?

I use Alibre Design. Their $200 version is great for hobbyists. I have had no issues importing into S3D. Once in a while I have had to repair a file, but that is extremely rare.

I have two printers: A Fabrikator Mini V2 and a Creality CR-10S. How do I add another profile to switch between them?

Did you get the fabrikator to connect? Mine won't, although repetier works great.

Thanks
