Printing Details

This advanced print relies on small clearance fits and tight tolerances. It is crucial to ensure that your printer is well-calibrated and maintained. Additionally, make sure the build plate is thoroughly cleaned before each print. Poor bed adhesion can cause surface imperfections, such as "spaghetti" prints, and lead to print failures.
