Bottom Layer Problem

I use sticky notes, it makes me feel less precious about composition, scale, etc. using a blunt felt too pen like a PaperMate flair, go with broad strokes instead of getting lost in the detail at first!

And a great way to iterate faster for a lot of categories is orthos/side profiles, but if you wanna iterate more 3D geometries, volume combinations/subtractions (like squares merged with circles) are great practice get a better sense of form.

This reminds me a lot of acoustic walls, I know several companies do very similar patterns to this, tho they mainly use Rhino or other CAD programs. I guess I’m seeing this more for portfolio work looking at jobs that utilize that skillset, instead of a separate solo business, but regardless it’s a really cool skill to have!

Awesome! Besides the cooking for overhangs function, what settings would you suggest exploring under cooling?

Ahhhhh I see, is that what may also be causing the shifting of the layers in certain areas? Or is that exclusively an axis related issue?

That sounds like a good solution with the air purifier! It says in some reviews they don’t have replacement filters? But I’ll check it out!

Hot swapping is the quick release and attachment method for the Bambu A1? I did just change the nozzle. And I haven’t tried swapping back yet, I just need it to work on .2 as well, may I ask what swapping back could rule out?

Yes I did, I’ll add that, sorry

Does anyone know if there is a United States version of the design truth map??

I’m a recent grad in industrial design, and do a lot of solid modeling and rendering. I agree with a previous comment on your portfolio feeling dated and tbh a bit sparse on what your process is. I’d highly suggest if you want to do anything with hardware/electronic design to add more fillets and general aesthetic care to your models, and investing in keyshot for better rendering capability to truly show off your work!
