Pints on Supports, what am I doing wrong?

Posted · Pints on Supports, what am I doing wrong?

I had to run this stl through Meshmixer to cut it in half because the original is too large. I'm sure I have screwed something up during that splitting process but have no idea what it is or how I can fix it. The problem is it prints only mostly the supports. Can someone school me on how to fix this file? Thank you in advance.

    Look at the prepare tab: your model is way broken:

    The blue and pink dot pattern generally means faces are either missing or have their normals flipped.

     

    If you're running Windows, Microsoft's "3D Builder" app (I think it comes with Windows 10 but you need to install it manually in Windows 11) is actually great at fixing models (as well as doing things like simple cuts and a bunch of other things).

     

    And because I just made some brownies and I'm in a good mood... here you go:
