Topic: Slicer problem

When I try to slice the attached STL file, Slicer insists on putting a top across the thing, even when it is not there.  The walls are 1 mm thick: I wonder if Slicer thinks they're too thin to print. Any thoughts?

Re: Slicer problem

Maybe try running it through netfabb to see if that fixes it?

Re: Slicer problem

Someone on the Slic3r forum found a very small face that was oriented improperly.  After I fixed that, all was well.
