Unicorn Clip-On Accessory

Please try it this way..Best regards

This is the orientation that is preset in the program when you open the file in Studio. If I then slice without changing anything, I get dozens of supports. And if I look at the horn horizontally from the side, these supports also make sense, otherwise the print head would try to place the filament in the air

Here again is a screen recording of the sliced print process when I disable the supports. This can't work, can it, or am I somehow mistaken

I will try to improve it… Thanks for the feedback

Please do not change the position, otherwise the clip will break; otherwise, it should hold.

Hello 😊 you are absolutely right – a hinge made of rigid PLA is of course not ideal and can break under too much stress. It is really important that the part is printed exactly as it is sliced, as the layer alignment is crucial for the stability of the hinge. If you change the printing position, it will be significantly more prone to breakage. If you want the part to be more durable and flexible, the following materials would be much better suited: PETG → slightly more flexible than PLA, significantly more impact-resistant ABS → more robust and temperature-resistant ASA → similar to ABS, additionally more UV-resistant Nylon (PA) → very tough and resistant, ideal for snap-fits TPU (depending on the design) → if flexibility is specifically desired in the hinge area With PETG or Nylon, the hinge would be significantly less prone to breakage. Thank you for your feedback anyway!
