Hello,

 

Let's say I have a basic cube i want to print. What would be the difference if I rotate the bloc by 45 degrees to always use x and y axis while printing VS Printing along x and y seperately.

 

Will the resulting part be more precise since I used both axis all the time ? or not ?

 

Hope it's clear,

 

Thank you.
