Just attaching some photos of my first pieces in my first 3 prints testing out the souls
Not the best photos I know ... taken with my phone in less than optimal light

By chance do you have a picture of the pave band picture #2 with the supports showing? Curious how you sprued that one?
Or would you share the stl print file, I haven,t had much luck trying to print this style yet?

I used gemvision matrix's quad blend supports and supported every single prong from is lowest starting point
started at 1 mm thick ended at 0.25 mm Since there are so many supports and they share starting points the bases became quite thick so they didn't drift or move too much. Also made sure I did it with a decent arm length so I would be able to cut it away from the model.
The prongs on the side were perpendicular to the ring so I didn't try to support them
Same STL file failed horrifically on my b9 1.2 a week ago, so I was pleasantly surprised when this one managed to print

Great prints. I am struggling with mine. Appreciate showing the supports. I need to practice with the Matrix support tools.
Re: Getting Started First Day With the Solus (Prints)
It's all about the supports and checking the integrity of the model. Netfabb works well for that.
Very impressive prints KBS!

Very nice prints, liked seeing the supports as well. I do believe we will be receiving ours tomorrow cant wait to set it up and get going.
Re: Getting Started First Day With the Solus (Prints)
That is a pretty cool support system. Nice!!
