Topic: Hi-Poly VS. Low poly Models

Ok downloaded a couple of models off thingiverse and noticed that when I go to slice them they don't slice. I let one run for over 2 hours and never got to through the process so I could print. Not sure why repetier host and slicer wont do these models I know that low poly model labeled with the low poly in there title work fine. Can anyone tell me what I can do to make this work.

Thanks for help

A bit more info would be helpful.  Like, for starters, examples of what you were trying to slice....

First things first, run it through http://cloud.netfabb.com/, whenever you have strange problems with a model.
