Re: SPlit process

A neat trick in Simplify3D is that you can, in instances like the one you've described, use the virtual bed surface as a cutting plane.

Double click your model to open the model settings panel for your selected part and lower the Z position 152mm. So if it currently reads 0 for Z you would change it to -152.

Here is a video on using the model settings panel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i5rLVYpeoXU
