Wider supports?

Hi,

Being quite new to this, I hope some more experienced users can help me on my way.

I'm using my Felix TEC4 with dual extruders to print some small parts. I print using PVA supports but notice that the supports are very narrow in places and don't stick well to the base or eachother. While when printing bigger parts the supports get bigger and things work fine.

Is there any way to beef up the supports?

Re: Wider supports?

Since you're using PVA, you could just increase the extrusion multiplier for that extruder. You can adjust the extrusion multipliers for both extruders independently, so that will help them print thicker.
