  1. Ah see "skin" is a new term for me,  but makes perfect since that "wall" would have a z axis equivalent.

    So now my question is what am I doing wrong parameter wise that I am not getting a 0.06mm first(bottom) layer and/or 0.06mm last (Top) layer?

     

    So currently under Shell

    Extruder 1

    Wall Thickness               to 0.80mm

    WalLine Count               to 2  

    Top/Bottom thickness   to 0.06mm

    Top Thickness               to 0.06mm

    Top Layers                     to 1   (I have tried 0 to 10 with no change in sliced layers)

    Bottom Thickness          to 0.06 mm

    Bottom Layers               to 1  (Also 0 to 10 with no change)

    Extruder 2

    Wall Thickness               to 0.80mm

    WalLine Count               to 2  

    Top/Bottom thickness   to 0.80mm (This default, it was letting me change it but now it does not)

    Top Thickness               to 0.06mm

    Top Layers                     to 0   (I have tried 0 to 10 with no change in sliced layers)

    Bottom Thickness          to 0.06 mm

    Bottom Layers               to 0  (Also 0 to 10 with no change)

     

    Seems no mater what I do it results in 86 layers.

    Not sure if I'm even in the right area.

     

    I originally had extruder 1 and 2 both matching like Extruder 1 above. Since I have been playing around Extruder 2 wont let me change Top/Bottom Thickness from the default 0.80mm so not sure why that is.

  2. Thanks you for responding gr5.   I know that printing at .06mm is going to be tricky.   It is just one piece of a multipiece project that I happened to design first, figured I start looking at Cura to start getting familier with it.  But adventually I need to go there.    I'll double check for first layer height..  I did find top and bottem height and tried adjusting them but he numbers of layers still remained 86.  But am I right in thinking that it should slice to 90 layers? 

     

  3. I'm completely new to 3D printing.  I'm slicing my first model and noticed something I am not sure I should be concerned about or not. I'm using a .06mm layer thickness, and my model is 5.40mm tall.  When Cura slices it, preview says it will be 86 layers.    5.4/.06 equals 90.      My concern is the model is made up a .06mm tall piece, stacked 90 times with a 2 degree rotation per stack. A screw of sorts.  IF the preview is supposed to accurately show the slices then its missing 4.

    Is this a normal slicing thing that happens?

    OR 

    Is it an issue?

    OR 

    Is there possibly a setting I'm missing that it is not following scale exactly in some way?

    Thanks for any education and/or help.
