Hi, I'm trying to get this to slice in cura 5.6.0
Yellow block is set as a cutting mesh. Can Cura just not ignore stuff outside of the bulid area?
I'm open to suggestions on how to cut it outside of cura as well. I tried meshmixer, but the import absolutely destroys the stl
Thanks!
Here’s how I would do this in blender:
Can even use cylinders to group some circular parts of the model together naturally so that the “glue” points are at the bottom inside the walls where they’re not obvious
@WolfLink @papalonian yeah, something like this but you might try. MS 3D Builder is out is still around our even good old Meshmixer!
Alternatively you could try adding a plane and extrusion this downwards on blender, Meshmixer etc
