Why are these bridges not connected?

Hours spent on this. The bridges are not connected to the main pole bodies after slicing, so when I print they barely connected. What am I doing wrong? Thanks.

Re: Why are these bridges not connected?

something funky in the model. Click mesh > Separate connected surfaces . You will get a lot more models (all the pieces) .. not sure the purpose of all the processes but you will most likely need to redo what is being printed by what process if you really need them all.

Re: Why are these bridges not connected?

Thank you! That did it. My original model was made in Fusion 360 using separate bodies. Didn't realize they needed to be broken up to slice correctly.

The processes are for testing different retraction and bridging settings up the ladder.

Thanks.
