1.19 Black Magic
This section allows you to transform your model into a hollow shell, a single
layer thick.
Spiralize the Outer Contour
This causes your Z axis to be constantly moving upward as printing your
single outer wall shell. The results are no layer change lines, giving a much
smoother surface. This setting is typically only used for artistic objects as
they will be fragile.
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 dierence
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 denes 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
