Tentacool more printable

Closed this issue · 1 comments

I really like the Tentacool design, but could. you maybe design it so that is more easily printable with regards to overhangs and bridges? I think it is impossible to print with supports and even then it's not easy to have something come out clean.

Hi, the tentacool was meant to be printed from SLA (Resin) printers in the first place. The design focused on function optimization over manufacturability. That being said, it can print quite nicely when properly oriented. Have a try to place is as shown here below and sink it into the bed so that it creates a good patch contact. Then add brim and tree supports. Good luck!
