That's how your model looks in Meshmixer. I guess it's not close to what you expect, it is not a solid piece, it is not even flat - perhaps the pictures give some clues?

 

 

 

Another paper with some crucial things to keep in mind:

How weird, it looks similar.. outside of maya the obj appears corrupt.. I will be reading the paper you linked. If i find a solution ill be sure to come back and share.

 

Thanks for your time

Last time I've seen such odd behavior was caused by the 3D model that is not right.

 

I would agree. However debugging the issue is proving difficult.

 

I have attached the model for anyone's convenience.

Hi all,

 

As you can see on the left we have a model i created in maya. Exported to obj format and then loaded into cura. Now i have conformed all the normals so its facing the right side as i initially suspected that was the issue. If anyone has ideas id appreciate it as this is my first exported model so bound to run into issues.

 

I understand maya isnt the precision accuracy software that i should be using but i enjoy making models in it quite a lot.

 

Thanks for your help,
