The best explained Break a 3D model video. Thank you!
Very simple, fast and straight forward, thank you,
An impacient person
Thank you. So straight forward and easy to follow. Was able to do to exactly what I wanted to do within 1 hour of downloading meshmixer without any prior experience. Very helpful.
Thanks for the great info, brother! You broke it down in simple terms for me and I feel like I learned a lot from this!
I‘m in the process of printing an entire Captain Rex armor. All I can say, thank you so much, I‘ve been searching for a video like this in ages, thanks mate and great video!
More meshmixer tutorials, thank you, great video
Thanks much! A great intro!
Cheers mate helped me continue my build.
great straightforward tutorial, appreciated
Thank you
Thanks for the video, it helped immensely
Been waiting for this, need more of this type video.....
More to come!
Awesome! thank you!
Thanks so much for this video.
No problem. Hope it helps
very nice and detailed video, thanks for the content.
I see we both use the ender3 can you make a video or share a printing profile that doesn't take too long to print? Idk where I f-ed up in mine but the simplest thing just takes tons of hours and the supports are super hard to come out :(
Thanks man.
I’ll be trying this exact same thing for my elegoo Neptune 3 plus
When I edit a gauntlet in meshmixer save and export to Cura. The measurements I did in meshmixer are different in Cura. For example. The wrist opening is 63.5mm. The elbow opening 76.2mm. When I export to Cura. The openings are smaller then what I did. Is there something I need to turn on or off in meshmixer?
Good video....
1 question..when u cut and print out pieces, do the parts print out flat where they connect to the rest of the helmet? Or do they print out with joints?
TIA
They way that I show in this video they are only flat. In my other meshmixer video I show you how to do it with Joining pins that basically can create a joint effect. I would recommend checking it out.
Good info, but hitting your mic was driving me crazy. Thank you for the vid!! Gonna put this to use for sure.
link to meshmixer is dead . and they are pushing fusion360
Great video, thanks a lot, just have one question, can you tell me please, what are the hardware requirements to be able to use meshmixer? The high ones and the medium please..... And thanks again, keep up the good work :)
System Requirements Meshmixer 3.5
Microsoft Windows 7 or later or OS X / macOS 10.11 or later
4GB system RAM
Integrated or discrete graphics card with latest drive
Thanks, and what about the processor?
You know it doesn’t say on the site. This is a single thread application so anything over a i5 would probably be fine
Great, thanks)
Is there a quick method to reverse this process taking the smaller cuts and reassembling back to a larger piece without having to realign everything again that takes quite a bit of time
hi mate
been following your vid when i drag my mandalorian helmet (cura file)
i get computing message but nothing loads just black screen any advice tips please
cheers
Is it cura or meshmixer?
@@Rise3DBuilds hi m8 my cura works ok just installed mesh mixer
following your vid loaded mesh dragged cura file and just got black screen it seemed have loaded
as when i try to load another file mesh askes if i want to save file i first file loaded
just tried the items built in rabbit etc nothing but black screen
thx again
hi Why did I cut and slice my model into pieces with Meshmixer and then put the pieces together vertically in Cura, there were approximately 24 pieces that I was able to prepare for printing in 3 times in Cura, i.e. in 3 stl files, my problem is that I printed the first layer It is printed like a net, which means that it is not like my other prints that the first layer is correct, clean and smooth, what is the problem? I have adjusted my models from left to right and horizontal to vertical to fit more in Cura
Can you email me som screenshots of these you are seeing? Mike@rise3dprinting.com
My model has a red outline and i cant fix it. any idea how to?
What did you use to glue it together
I usually use super glue, depending on the model I will some time use Epoxy or my favorite is to use the 3D printing pen to weld them together
Failed at 3:22 - No printer bed shown or printer in top right corner. Set a printer from 'preferences' but still no show on fresh download & install of Meshmixer how do you get the selected printer to show in top right and have a bed displayed the model should reference to ???????.
does it worthless for miniatures? I mean pla miniatures not resin? it is useful to cut the model for (pla printers such as ender 3 or ender 5 )? thx!!!
Yes I cut up my prints for miniatures with pla printing. Reduces supports, makes it easier to print, and it will allow you to get some better detail. I have moved to resin for minis but you can get some awesome prints with pla and switching to a .2 nozzle.
@@Rise3DBuilds Yep I am trying to get a .2 noozle aswell ... one question... for cutting miniatures ? do I need to planning a keying-pinning (key and hollow structure) for parts? one part is male and other female? or just go smooth and flat and with just "glue" I join the parts? thx!
You can do either with minis. The pin gives good strength but often times I will use a hobby drill and make a hole and uses part of a paper clip to connect the parts. I am working on a video on how to do it for the model and mesh mixer
@@Rise3DBuilds yeah I would like to see it! thx
Stick around!!!
Whats the printer software name, printer software path, format of file to printer software default stl, and command line arguments
How do I download it? The url doesn't work
Looks like you have to go to the autodesk site now.
Looks like they fixed the site. It is available again.
Is cura free
Yes it is!
Dude u gotta do something about that banging in your sound. It's very distracting
I'll say
This is crazy nonsense, where is automatic cutting? Hello 2022 or 1995?
