Struggling with complex 3D printing model
Posted: Mon Jul 03, 2023 1:26 am
Hello everyone,
I've been on a bit of a 3D printing spree lately, working on various projects that challenge my skills and stretch my creativity.
Lately, I've been trying to print a particularly complicated 3D model of the Space Shuttle Atlantis. And while I usually enjoy the challenge, this one drove me a little crazy! I won't lie - the level of detail and quality of this model had me hooked from the start, so I'm finding it hard to give it up. It's a bit pricey compared to the ones I usually use, but the detailing and quality were too good to resist.
So, I'm curious if any of you have experiences with similar high-quality, complex 3D models? How do you manage the printing process? What slicer settings work best for you? Just to add some context, I'm using a Prusa i3 MK3S for my prints, usually with Simplify3D as my slicer of choice.
I'm open to any tips you think might help.
