print seperates easy from the support structure. No tools needed.I also added a smaller Version which comes out perfect.

Since I had only 700g of PLA HR left, I had to print the support with an other material, for which I choose PLA Basic. Surprisingly, this was extremely easy to remove. And with 2 nozzels on my H2D it want a big problem to print these two materials.

While the support side will never be as good as the non-support side, I have dialed in ideal support settings and speed. The layer height is 0.2 vs the original 0.18 because when I added raft layers, the 0.18 slice always had a slice defect in it that was only correctable by going to 0.2mm. The support interface has been improved for better quality, and the outer wall speed reduced (no need to slow for the top of the ball). I&#39;ll add, I think the black color highlights imperfections more than the other colors, I&#39;ll be adding photos of the blue material soon.&nbsp;WARNING: Make sure your layer height on the quality tab is set to 0.2. If you don&#39;t have a 0.6 nozzle loaded when you load the profile, it may automatically change it to match what is loaded in the printer. When you change it back to 0.6, the original layer height settings will have been erased.&nbsp;Tips:<ul><li>dry your filament</li><li>print from an AMS-HT for active drying</li><li>wash your build plate with soap and water</li><li>use a textured plate</li><li>use IPA to help remove supports from the plate after you are done</li><li>keep the top glass off and door open</li><li>you should reduce the bed plate temp to 45C after the first layer</li><li>use my other print profile to clean the remnants off the plate after you are done</li></ul>

Run this profile after printing the BIQU Airless Basketball. Usually, there will be bits and pieces left over on the build plate. This profile is a single, 0.3 layer, disc ran at the upper end of the material temperature. This will attach to any remaining material on the build plate. Then, drip 91% IPA around the edges and let this soak in. Last, using a plastic bed scrapper, you can slowly pull up an edge and peel the disk off. This will pull up any bits and pieces with the disc.

Buildplate only. Initial layer expansion = 15mm. Set the threshold to 45 degrees, overhangs only and then paint onto the highlighted part at the base. Be careful not to paint parts of the ball above the base which may become highlighted otherwise the slicer may attempt to grow supports through the ball. You may want to use a support blocker above the 45 degree marker line to prevent this.</li><li>Nozzle temperature - 230C</li><li>Bed temperature - 40C for <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer ugc" href="https://biqu.equipment/products/biqu-panda-buildplate-cryogrip-pro-for-x1-p1-a1-printers?variant=41446028935266">BIQU Cryogrip glacier</a> (recommended), 75C for textured PEI, 65C with glue stick for smooth PEI.</li><li>Part cooling fan - 100%</li><li>Auxiliary cooling fan - Between 70% and 100% with 100% recommended.</li></ul>Bring your A(1) game!&nbsp;<img style="height: auto" src="https://makerworld.bblmw.com/makerworld/model/DSM00000000724517/design/2025-04-16_26a746d6e97e3.png" alt="">
