Recommended Use Cases

Key Settings Explained

Layer Height: The 0.2 mm layer height offers a good balance between print speed and surface quality, making it suitable for small, detailed items like wallets.

Wall Structure: Two wall loops with the Arachne wall generator provide consistent shell thickness, improving durability without excessive material use.

Infill: A 15% zigzag infill pattern is used to maintain strength while keeping the print lightweight and efficient.

Supports: Supports are enabled and set to auto, ensuring overhangs are well-supported. The profile uses a 30-degree threshold and supports only on the build plate, minimizing cleanup.

Top and Bottom Layers: Five solid layers on both top and bottom surfaces ensure a closed, robust structure, critical for a functional wallet.
