#1 works MUCH better but both are better than doing nothing. In fact print 3 at a time. The one in the middle will be the best.

I agree
Awesome! Thanks for the input. I didn't think about that.
however, I do have some parts that are pretty large and don't have enough space to print two at the same time. Maybe i can add a couple of thin post to the side of the part so the head can travel somewhere else so my main part prints.
I will try this and post pictures of the updates.
Thank you again!
Make the post at least 10mm on a side. One post is usually enough. Place the post such that when printing it the fans are blowing on the part if possible to get extra cooling.

Hello!
Yeah, this is a really simple issue to solve.
As you know, the nozzle is really hot. When it stays in a small area for a long time, the plastic beneath gets too hot and melts. So what you need to do is give it time to cool down.
There are a couple of things you can do:
1. Print two at a time. This way it has time to cool while the head moves to the other model.
2. In the settings you can give it a "minimal time per layer" and enable "cool head lift" which will move the heated head away from the print for a set amount of time, thus giving it time to cool.
Hope this helps
