I have heard there there is a way to have parts of your model filled with lets say 75% infill. And you can have the other parts filled at 10%. Is this possible ? Because I want only parts of a model filled in more then other parts for strength. Do you have any videos on how to do this ?

Yup, it's really easy to do with S3D process system. Here's two tutorials that explain the subject:

This looks fine for models that née a heavy bottom (basically a vertical adjustment). But what about just having a small section on the left side or right side of the model ? Or just a corner of a cube ? We should be able to pick the area we want to adjust the infill too. Let's say I am building a car and I want the axels to be 100% infill. And the tires to be 50%, and the rest to be 10%. AND I do NOT want to model each part separately. I want everything printed together. What then ?

Sure. Just break up your 3D model into the sections that need different settings. So in your scenario, just export separate STL files for the axel, tires, etc. Then use the links I posted. You setup multiple processes for the different settings and then use the "select models" button to choose which models a given process applies to. Then the software automatically combines everything into a single print so that everything is created at the same time. It's pretty cool

Ok, I purchased the program. But haven't had a chance to play with it yet. I am SURE I will have more questions.
