Posted · Supports don't touch model

Hi all, sorry if posting twice not sure if i posted it in the right place the first time (copy paste time!)

 

I'm a newbie to 3d printing and while i've had a few successful abeit simple (minimal supports) prints i've come to find that for reason i can't quite get cura to generate supports that touch the model, some supports do touch however they're few and far between, i've watched a few videos and messed around with rotation but it doesn't seem to want to connect the supports, can anyone lend a helping hand please.

 

some details, I have a CS10S Pro using cura 4.0.0 I haven't added any extentions (not sure how or what i need) and my printer can print overhangs quite nicely (found that out when i tried a model and the floating supports floated onto the model, the model is https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3501926 with a slight modification to the arm for posing.

      • Release Notes: S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 (Latest)

        Dustin posted a topic in Firmware,

        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...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        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.

        Ultimaker Cura 5.6 stable released

        ArunC posted a topic in UltiMaker Cura,

        Cura now supports Method series printers!
         
        A year after the merger of Ultimaker and MakerBotQQ, we have unlocked the ability for users of our Method series printers to slice files using UltiMaker Cura. As of this release, users can find profiles for our Method and Method XL printers, as well as material profiles for ABS-R, ABS-CF, and RapidRinse. Meaning it’s now possible to use either Cura or the existing cloud-slicing software CloudPrint when printing with these printers or materials
