platform. The bottom surface of your printed part will not be as clean or
as even when using this option. Raft is typically not required.
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.
Line Spacing
This will determine the spacing between “support” lines for the raft. A
small spacing makes the support structures closer together improving
strength of the raft, but uses more material.
Base Thickness
This denes how thick your raft will be.
Base Line Width
This will dene how wide your “support” material is for the raft. This
setting will determine how well the surface layers of the raft print.
Interface Thickness
This will determine how thick the surface layers of the raft are. The surface
layers are the platform that is built upon the supports.
Interface Line Width
This will determine how wide the top layers of the platform will be. In
general, you can keep this set to your nozzle size, as surface quality of the
removable raft is not important.
Airgap
This will dene the distance between your raft and your print. A larger
gap will make your part easier to remove, but will make the bottom of your
