I started losing my supports today. I busted out with my sublimation heat tape, I have a ton holding those supports down. I was 14 hours (17%) into the print. Not giving up. It’s holding so far & it’s almost 50% finished. Wish me luck 🤞🏻
Your tutorials have saved me many times! You explain things very well and in a way that is understandable and you go into detail so that you understand what it is all about. Thank you very much!
Thanks for the series on supports. I am having a little trouble making the translation from Cura to Bambu Studio ... hope you can do a series for Bambu. On of the the biggest problems that I have with supports is REMOVING them. Usually I end up breaking off a piece of the model. I have tried both with using Bambu Support material as well as just using the filament for the supports.
Greetings. I’m from Germany and just started to paint my first figure. Tmnt Leonardo from la figures. Because of you! 😃😃Where can I get a texture board for my dry brush? Can’t find it around here. Thanks for the help.
maybe i missed mead saying it, but does this work for us resin printers too? some supports off our base are fragile, i dont mind using the extra resin for supports but sometimes that will fail. i will try this slow the time down thing and make my supports bigger at the bottom, maybe that make it easier to scrap off the plate as well, i have mars 4 elegoo. but just started this month.
You didn’t miss it I was just focused on fdm. But in theory it works the same. You can always mess with your support thickness in resin as well as how big your connection points are to ensure a good hold. I did some resin videos with chitubox. I cover some of those things in those vids. Thanks for the comment hope this helped.
I was wondering if you could offer your opinion on the effectiveness of gyroid as a support infill pattern. It seems from what I've read and seen that it works well for most models, but was curious if it would be wise to apply to my support material. Cheers! :)
Thank you very much for this video which will allow me to solve the problems I encounter with this type of support. However, can I use these same settings on PLA, PVA or Breakway media? Thank you for your reply.
And here I’m sitting at work, looking at the printer on my phone doing concentric supports at 80mm/s making my 36 hour print fail😅 Creality cr10 smart pro might not like that speed
On the support strength, I think you left out "Support Wall Line Count". I have found with tree supports, increasing the wall lines makes for a much stronger support.
Hey! I left that out on purpose I’ll be discussing the pros and cons of that in a future video. I believe the best method to increase strength is the support pattern not the wall count.

This is actually very helpful and straight forward with precise tips. Appreciate the help!
This is great, not many people talk about tree supports in detail. would love to learn more about tree supports
Yeah. I’ve had a lot of requests so this is the second of the series. (Dunno how many more)
Thank you, just in time because I'm trying tree supports for the first time today.
Good luck!

Your explanations are very clear. Thank you from Uruguay.
This helped me so incredibly much. This totally saved mÿ 3d printing career. Thank you 🙏
Glad it helped!

Hey! Yes I’m planning on doing videos on Bambu studio as well.
Great video! Best video out on branch angle.
Awesome. Glad you liked it!
@@ItsMeaDMaDe this will prep me to over come my fallen trees when I use ASA. Pla is fine. Bigger trunk or brim i guess.

Amazing video! But is there a way to make the bottom layers on supports look better. The bottom of prints i do arent that smooth.

Question, I have a print that gets hit by the nozzle mid print how do avoid that
You want to mess with your zhop. I would do “retraction at layer change” then do zhop on retraction’s
Great vid!

what if my tree supports are solid but always seem to break where the supports touch the model?
Wish this was for Bambu Studio.
good video for a beginner. too bad would have liked to see it for bambu lab studio
I struggle with the perfect Support Z Distance....
I am having problems, 3-D printing, small objects. It does not want to come out.
yes, but z-hop induces stringing
i'm over here now. lol
"triangles is the best shape in geometry"
But i was always told that hexagon is bestagon
PLA, PVA, Breakway supports... sorry I'm french
