Hello all,

I have some questions/ concerns about how interface material is generated in Cura. What it looks like right now is that the interface is generated at a constant distance in z off of the overhanging structure. Here is a picture of what I mean.

When my interface layer thickness decreases to something around 0.5mm, the support interface completely disappears on shallow angles.

Here is a link to the part I'm using. Let me know if this all makes sense.

      The goal of this contest is to design a set of people figurines that could be used in such a project to make an area, office or mall seem populated. 
      Think of different types of people in different environments, like walking people, people standing still, working people, and both men and women.

      Taking advantage of DfAM

      SteveCox3D posted a topic in Engineering,

      This is a statement that’s often made about AM/3DP. I'll focus on the way DfAM can take advantage of some of the unique capabilities that AM and 3DP have to offer. I personally think that the use of AM/3DP for light-weighting is one of it’s most exciting possibilities and one that could play a key part in the sustainability of design and manufacturing in the future.
