1.20. BRIM
Only Follow Mesh Surface
This will cause your print to follow the outside of your model, building
it completely hollow with a single wall outer shell. The only difference
between this and Spiralize, is that the Z axis moves regularly. That is, it
prints a layer and then moves up to the next one.
1.20 Brim
Brim circles the base of the print while making contact, helping adhere
the print to the heated plate. This is only one layer thick, and easily
removed post-print. This section defines how the brim is formed when
brim is activated in basic settings.
Brim Line Amount
This will determine the distance the brim will cover around the outside of
your object. The more brim used, the better your part will adhere to the
plate.
1.21 Raft
Raft is a platform built underneath your object, designed to help adhesion
and prevent warping. It will lay down support material, and then a
platform on top of the supports. Your model will be built on top of this
platform. The bottom surface of your printed part will not be as clean or
as even when using this option. Raft is typically not recommended.
Extra Margin
This determines the distance around the outside of your object that the
raft is created. Can be helpful for ensuring no warping of the lower layers.
