- Less can be more, and using negative volumes, you can subtract areas from an STL right inside PrusaSlicer.
In this tutorial I show you how!

SUPER helpful! Thank you!
You're welcome, glad you found it helpful!
A very underused feature! I was trying to figure out how to punch a hole in small items to make them into key chains, now I can thanks !
Glad to be of help! I've got a sort of related short coming out on Wednesday, make sure to keep watch. Happy printing!
Mold making comes to mind
Very nice idea. May have to experiment with that
Going to see if that same thing works in Bambu Slicer, (the load feature). I hope so….. Great informative video.
Let me know if you have any issues, happy printing!
Nice concise and very clear presentation. I was looking for a quick answer and I got just what I was looking for. subbed.
Thanks for the sub, glad I could help! happy printing!
Love your presentation. Right to the point, easy to understand and comprehend. Thank you for explaining this to all of us. Subscribed for sure. 👍
Really glad it was helpful, thanks very much for the comment and the sub, and happy printing!
I recently started my 3d print journey with a sovol sv04. Massive headache but used cura.
I will definitely be leaning towards prusa slicer now as that's my next buy
Nice, though bare in mind that not only is Prusa Slicer free, like Cura, but also like Cura, it works with pretty much any FDM printer. You don't need a Prusa printer to use the slicer.
@3D Revolution Yes thanks for the reply. I've been really ill but I do have it downloaded. It's just a month of cura and the its a scary to jump 🤣 hopefully should be able to manage to move my head around by the end of the week
@@karlmyers6518 Sorry to hear you've been ill, hope you're on the mend. Ah it's not too much of a jump. Just so you know, I've got a beginners tutorial for PrusaSlicer (th-cam.com/video/_kIqMPNQNSw/w-d-xo.html) as well as an advanced and expert one, and loads of additional ones which you can find via my profile or I've popped them all in a PrusaSlicer playlist (th-cam.com/video/_kIqMPNQNSw/w-d-xo.html). Let me know if you have any issues.
@3D Revolution I'm over the worst, I think . Yes sweet I'll have a look and give it a go this week. Thanks for the reply.
Excellent presentation. Thank you very much. I have a question, though. I want to add a negative volume in my stl of my brain but the choise is greyed out. Any suggestion?
Hi Simon, thanks for the comment and glad you liked it. Could you pop me a DM or an email, I'll see if I can help you, but also wanted to run a question by you if that's ok?
@@3DRevolution I've sent you at fb messenger
ask a silly question but when you added the dragon to the top of the benchy how did you stop it from snapping to the bed plate please? every time i add a negative or a shape it auto snaps to bed?
Hey Paul, not a silly question at all.
When you add anything in PrusaSlicer, whether it be importing an object or adding a negative volume or modifier, it will by default load on the bed level.
With a physical printed object that you've imported (which was not added as a 'Part' to an existing model on the bed), they will always snap to the bed and PrusaSlicer will not allow you to raise them unnecesarily.
However, with any object that has been added to an existing item on the print bed by right clicking on the model itself and selecting "Add Part", "Add Negative Volume", "Add modifier" etc, then once it has loaded, you can select the move tool on the menu on the left, and using the Blue Z axis arrow, drag it up to the height required.
this video did not help. Im trying to print an object where the first layer does not print an area leaving it blank and then the next layer a different color show the second layer shows thru, now its easy to do with text, I can do that, but when I try to do it with another stl file of a picture I cant get it to work. this is the info Im looking for. and its not to be found anywhere.
Coincidence doesn't cover it. I'm producing a tutorial on exactly this as I type this and it'l be coming out in the next few weeks! Keep watch!
sweet!
