How can I clean up this cellular thing?

[tinydancer 0]

Just wanted to get some suggestions on how I can print this for a better finish.

I did a layer height of 0.1mm, Zero infil, shell thickness of 1mm and a print speed of 60mm/s.

Here are some pics of it.

I would - ensure shell thickness is a multiple of nozzle width, e.g. 1.2mm for a .4mm nozzle; fans on at 100%; slow down, probably 30mm/s or slower

Thanks yellowshark, I'll give that a try.

Cheers!

Print slower and cooler. This is a difficult print. For maximum beauty I would print at 25mm/sec and 200C. Make sure travel speed is at least 200mm/sec to avoid plastic leaking out while spanning those gaps.

Do you just change the temp in the tune section on the printer, or do I do that through Cura?

You have to do it in the material settings at the printer, if you wish to keep it as a standard. You can just tune while printing if it's a one time thing..
