Support tester(s)
thingiverse
A simple cube perfect for testing various support settings. The overhangs and holes provide ample opportunities to verify whether supports can be removed or are an integral part of the model. I found that a 40% support density zigzag pattern with connected zigzags produced the most favorable results. I opted for 40% support density as it allowed supports to detach in whole pieces, similar to unzipping, due to the zigzag pattern's nature. The settings used were: * Support X/Y distance: 1mm * Support Z distance: .2 for a layer height of .2 * .16 for a layer height of .16 on top layers *.32 for a layer height of .16 on bottom layers Future support tests will be added as needed, or if issues with the current setup arise, or specific designs are requested.
