I See No Flaws In This Plan

English

Oh, I’m a-doin’ it.

This part is actually slightly outside the “safe print zone” dashed lines on my build plate. I put down like half a can of hairspray on it right before the nozzle descended. Wish me luck.

      Hope you did enough bottom wall layers. The big tray looks like it could be a bit flimsy.

        huh, hair spray, makes sense

        i’ve been using an FDM-specific spray, but I bet hair spray is more cost effective

          Good luck

          Is this a 2d printer next to the 3D one?

              Yeah, I keep all my printers in one place.

              Well, except for the laser engraver. I guess you could consider that a “printer.”

                  An engraver is more of a “remover” though

                Good luck and let us know how it went.

                  As long as the borders are printing you should be golden. Not something you’d want to to often of course, depending on the printer, since you might strain the hardware at the extreme edges
