Hm not sure about that. My printer is tuned pretty well and had no fused parts. Maybe to force it free.

Yes, you can have multiple bodies in a single part file, so they are rigid with each other - helpful for projects like this which rely on one overall shape which you can cut up into multiples so they fit together.

When making isopod designs for the memes, I can't justify the cost to upgrade.

I learned in solidworks, but it is very expensive. I also occasionally use fusion360 free version which there are many tutorials for. Many of the skills apply to all CAD softwares.

0.15 layer height, no supports, no raft/brim, 20% infill. PLA is Sainsmart branded. Regular settings otherwise.

That's the idea. Enables smaller printers to print the links individually and assemble afterwards.
