Topic: Design gaps and support

I'm still waiting for my printer, but it will arrive some day big_smile

Meanwhile I'm trying to understand the process of making the parts ready for printing.
Let's say I will print one part inside another, and in the end the inner part will move freely without stucking to the outer part.

Do I design these tiny breakable supports in SolidWorks, or does the Solidoodle-software handle this?

Re: Design gaps and support

You can turn on support and have a few options using Skeinforge software.  Check it out here
