For example if you were 3D printing a pyramid, you would ideally want the base of the pyramid to be the base of the 3d print. Use the Rotate command to rotate your part if you need to. 41 +\\??? image goes here: The rotate command can be found in the panel on the left 42 + 43 + 44 +If your design needs to have overhanging or unsupported pieces, then you have two main options: 45 +1) Have the slicer add in supports which can be broken off once the print is finished. To do this make sure the Supports dropdown is not None. 46 +2) Use the Cut command to cut your part into pieces that could each be printed like a pyramid. For example a sphere would be very difficult to print and would require a lot of supports, but if you cut the sphere in half each half could act effectively as a pyramid and would be very simple to cut. When the print is finished, the two halves can then be glued together. 37 37 48 + 49 +??? image goes here 50 + 51 +=== 52 +\\Other printing options === 53 + 54 + 55 + 56 +??? 2 images go here 57 + 58 + 59 +=== Export G-Code === 60 + 61 + 62 +Once you're happy with your settings, click the Slice now button which can be found at the bottom of the right panel.
