Topic: stl help
I am trying to print an stl that's hallow in the middle with walls on the outside and it keeps printing the honeycomb fill making it turn into a solid box what should I do to fix it I am using repitier host thanks
Re: stl help
After you slice, does it show it hollow on the Gcode tab?
SD3, E3D hotend,linear bearing on x/y axis',pillow block bearing on y conneting rod, ball bearngs on front y axis, fan on y stepper motor.
Re: stl help
No the code ends up solid as well
Re: stl help
Is there a chance there is a hole in object, e.g., a couple faces should meet along an edge, but one of the vertices is split into two and has a small gap? Some design apps can check for such problems, but if you don't have one, I typically recommend uploading to http://cloud.netfabb.com . If there are minor problems, it will fix them and you can download the repair and try that for slicing.

when I first read your post I thought you were trying to print a solid cube without the infill/honeycomb... but I see you are trying to print a 4 sided box.. right

How do you turn off infill
Simply set Infill to be 0 before you slice it ... that will create 'zero infil'. In Slic3r, this is under the "Infill" option.

thanks for the help guys putting it in netfabb cloud worked i put it in the program netfab before i dont know why it didnt work when i hit repair
Re: stl help
I've occasionally used Netfabb Basic, and I remember I had issues with the "Apply Repair button. I find it easier to use cloud.netfabb since I don't design in NetFabb any way.
