· Custom Skirt / Brim anywhere the user wants - Simplify3D Trick & Peggyb explains how to do it on Cura
this does work in Cura as well, just save a cilinder shape and import it in Cura together with your object, scale its size, set the height as the first layer, multiply when needed and move them close to the corners of your object. You can print the cilinder, but you can also use the 'per model settings' and set the walls, top, bottom, infill to zero and only the extended brim gets printed.

I tried the custom brims as explained above and they work quite well. It would be nice to have this as a feature in Cura so you can place these custom brims which would also make them just touch the part rather than overlapping the part like mine does, they were still easy to remove though.
