Missing parts

[D0GG0 0]

I recently had to redownload and reprint a piece for a sword I found online, but when I went to go slice the file, the 2 smaller triangles that are in the center of the part got cut off towards the top. Is there a way I can fix this so I can have a piece that will work?

If the model has very fine details, not everything can be drawn with the thick lines that come out of your 3D printer. Cura will fit lines inside of the shape outlined by your mesh. If this is not possible, nothing will be printed. In that case, it may appear as if parts of the print are missing.

There are a couple of things that can be done about this:

• Enable the Print Thin Walls setting. This will let the printer use thinner lines to print very thin parts, although they might become wider than the model intends them to be.
• Reduce the line width. If you're printing something that has thin walls or webbings, make sure that the line width is slightly smaller than the minimum width of that part. However reducing the line width too much may cause underextrusion due to insufficient flow. To be able to reduce the line width further, you'll need to use a smaller nozzle.
• Add some horizontal expansion to the print. This makes the entire model wider on all sides, including the thin parts. They become less thin that way, so that they may now be printed. This does of course also ruin any dimensional accuracy and detail of the print since everything becomes thicker.

• Consider adjusting the model to the print, by making every piece at least as thick as your line width.
