hi guys i have printed these https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2987454 and am having a issue with strength. i have been gluing them back together everytime someone knocks them off the wall however im just wonering if there is a way to make the skin overlap walls by half of wall count as the way cura is printing right now leave no physical attachment between wall and skin

pictures attached as examples.

 

so each layer I want to alternate between 2 and 4 wall counts so the skin is fully trapped between layers. can someone tell me how to achive this

    That should print fine.  If it isn't then something is wrong with your printer.  Maybe you are underextruding or have some play/backlash in the head.  But to answer your question:

     

    infill overlap.  Look that up.  But really you shouldn't have to mess with infill overlap.  Instead you should repair your printer.  Or maybe you are printing too cold (too viscous) or too fast.

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...

        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
