Before proceeding, make sure you have your Sunhokey or Prusa i3 model on hand and an active internet connection. 2. Locate the original LCD display component that you wish to attach to the knob assembly. The front panel frame width is essential for this attachment. Be mindful of this specification before choosing your front panel. **Printing Without Support:** Your goal should be to design your LCD case with precision without needing support material for the model. If, however, the design cannot do without it, here are a few general guidelines: * **Use mesh layer height.** Ensure you choose appropriate settings when defining the parameters in Cura to obtain successful prints of objects which might require the support. When printing thin or complex geometries like filaments where underextrusion can cause weak parts during the retraction cycle of the 3D printer. 3. Adjust the **Extruder Speed (E-Steps) parameter:** In general, most successful printers require slower and more detailed control when layer separation becomes an issue. You have two options: * Lowering extruder speeds * Increase your resolution on settings by enabling multiple retraction methods or increasing the number of retract steps.
