My son is playing E-Guitars, E-Bass. Keyboards and (unfortunately!!! for my Ears) Drums, so I decided to start building a Prusacaster... It'll be fun I thought..to get him a unique piece with possibly not the best sound Quality but for sure an individual look and great design not anybody else has. So I thought to print the main core lying flat on the 350 trident, turned out this was a bad Idea Try Nr1: warping on the neck, bad surface there, print canceled after about 14 hours Print time (enthusiasm -30%): So far so bad, and thought to use an adhesive an the building plate omg that sticks like hell, had to change from Skirt for priming to a simple prime line as it was nearly impossible to remove the Skirt (..ask my fingernails) Try Nr2: no more warping, but because of the large amount of solid bottom/top infills (15) it still started to bend up (enthusiam now only 30%) : first I tried to use a file at the again becoming bad neck part removing a few layers there manually, but at the end it also starting to become awful after the 8th top layer, so again cancel print nearly before finished... Conclusion: After 2 rolls of Filament having the part laying flat on the print bed doesn't seem to be the best solution, so get it up....hmm but then I need supports, not the best with Superslicer....so next logical Step is to use the current last PrusaSlicer 2.6.0-alpha 5 with organic supports. After transforming my settings from Superslicer to Prusaslicer and a lot of testprints I came up with inserting a few Support Blockers to the Part (otherwise the organic supports do unneccesary strange things (enthusiam now again 80 %): and sliced it , looks great and interesting so this is currently printing lets see how it will come out, hope to be more lucky now as the Guitar Kit is on the way.....
