Cura Supports for Beginners: Tutorial & Recommend Settings
3D printing is an amazing hobby, but it's not without its frustrations. For most people, supports are one of the biggest frustrations. It can be really overwhelming trying to understand all the different support settings in Cura. So I decided to create this video to help you understand the basics of adding supports to a model in Cura. I cover the best Cura support settings to get started. I also give you a full beginner's guide on what Cura supports are and how to make better use of them.
As always if you have any questions about 3D printing feel free to post them in the comments or reach out to me on Facebook, Discord, Etc.😊

It`s not every day that you find a tutorial that`s unskippable, every second is important and full of information.

[@SlicePrintRoleplay]

That is such a huge compliment, thank you!

[@cwcoolguy6163]

As someone who just recently got into 3d printing this was so helpful, I have been told so many times that tree supports are the only supports you should use but I don’t like them and you explained everything so easy. Thank you!

[@mikeyknight292]

Not even a minute in and it’s been helpful! I’m a super noob at 3D printing, and my prints kept sliding off the plate mid print. Using Brim helped!!! Thank you!

[@neverstopskateboarding8243]

I’ve been 3D printing for a year. My life would’ve been so much easier if i found your video sooner. I wish everyone starting could watch this.

[@SlicePrintRoleplay]

Well I'm sorry I didn't get this video made sooner. But I really appreciate the kind words!

[@projectembrace]

@@SlicePrintRoleplay Same!! Been printing since 3d printers where the size of a small bathroom!! and each new printer has caused soo much frustration at the start to learn all the best settings for things. I wish I would have known about the plugins and had a better support understanding earlier on. Nice job. I would love if you could post a short video or even just a picture of what the model looked like after you printed it and removed the supports. If you have one already can you just link it below.

[@SlicePrintRoleplay]

@@projectembrace I can gladly grab s video of the finished print. I'll try to do that later today.

[@Jakeypoo-di6hy]

@@SlicePrintRoleplay- can you please write down all steps how to get perfect print on Ender 3 ?

[@SlicePrintRoleplay]

@@Jakeypoo-di6hy that would be a pretty difficult video to make. Especially because each printer is going to be different. A much better option would be to join my Facebook group and post what issues you're having there. That way we can help you with the specific issues you're seeing.

[@Lurker1222]

I can without a doubt say this is the best video I've seen on KZbin about supports. Thank you so much!

[@SlicePrintRoleplay]

I really do appreciate comments like this! Thanks for the positive feedback and encouragement. So glad to hear it helped you. 😊

[@SK-kn3ov]

Thank you! This was so so helpful. Your teaching style is so straightforward and easy to understand, I really appreciate it

[@SlicePrintRoleplay]

[@RickNuthman]

Thanks for the video! I printed my first model yesterday, which was a chair prop for a stop motion video I am working on. I just left the support settings at default, and boy did it make a mess. I basically was completely unable to remove all of the support material. Not even close. It is pretty much part of the model at this point. These tips were really helpful for tweaking it.

[@danroko9364]

Thanks for posting. I design in Blender3D and have been building my own supports into my models because I never really followed or understood the automatically generated supports of the slicer, and I found that the slicer's supports used a ton more filament than the ones that I could design, and also tended to be harder to remove. But I think I will look into them again after watching this, since building your own custom supports can be quite tedious.

[@HariWiguna]

Thank you for a great explanation of the many support options. I've been very happy with cura supports on my Ender3, except... I wish the layer immediately above the support interface is more solid. I always see gaps between the lines as if it's printing too high, which I suppose it is because the minimal gap is one layer height. So the filament is "dropped" one layer down rather than resting on previous layer as normal. Do you have any thoughts on improving the quality of the layer just above the support interface layer?

I actually just attempted a print of a Zard yesterday and looked great 10 hours in but started to spaghetti. I have a feeling since I used a .16mm layer height the support gap might have been off. Very new to printing so gonna give these settings a try. Also thanks for the add-on tip. Definitely helps!

[@SlicePrintRoleplay]

Unfortunately you will have some print failures in the beginning while you're learning. So don't beat yourself up about it. Definitely try to understand what caused the failure and consider it a leaning experience. Definitely let me if these settings give you better results.

[@joannayee8]

Thanks for the video! Where was this when I needed it a couple days ago! No wonder the supports were so hard to remove. Chipped a nail.

[@SlicePrintRoleplay]

Ugh that's the worst! Hopefully your supports will be much easier to remove now.

[@joannayee8]

@@SlicePrintRoleplay Hi, are there ways to lower the printing time and weight of the print? I'm trying to print the decorative top of a Chinese lantern. It's currently at 18 hrs and 5 mins and 77g.

[@SlicePrintRoleplay]

@@joannayee8 absolutely you can! There are three settings that can really cut down on print time and weight. First, Infill percentage. For most models you can get away with an Infill value between 5% and 25%. If the part doesn't have a lot of small intersecting inner chambers and won't be subjected to a lot of stress then 5% is usually fine. But play around with different settings and look at your sliced preview. From there you can see how different Infill settings will effect your print. Second, Infill type. There are lots of different types of Infill. Cura has an option for Lightning Infill which put Infill only where it's needed. This can save time, but the model won't be as strong as if you used a standard Infill types. I recommend Grid Infill pattern. It's one of the fastest Infill types and provides great results in most cases. Third, Wall Line Count. This value has a dramatic impact on print time. It determines how many walls you have running around the perimeter of your print. Think of Wall Line Count as the outermost walls running around your house. A higher value gives you stronger walls and (sometimes) more detail. However, it will also increase print time as the nozzle will spend more time running around the perimeter of the print. In most situations a Wall Line Count of 2 is fine. Let me know if that answers your question.

[@SlicePrintRoleplay]

And if you need visuals to better understand what I'm talking about here is a video. www.tiktok.com/t/ZTRncYgsp/

[@Coolfwip]

Been printing since october, and did filament follys gengar, the supports were all kinds of jacked up so the bottom of the model looks dumb. Glad i found your video because the ornamental starters were my next project lmao

[@SlicePrintRoleplay]

Oh that's awesome! Definitely let me know how the starters torn out once you apply some of the advice from this video.

[@proacademygaming7493]

THANK YOU!!! I been having issues removing supports and I tried lowering density of supports which cut down time but still was a hassle to remove. But i was using zig zag which tbh is too much to remove so i switch my patterns to line and I haven't printed yet but judging by the layers in cura is a bigg difference. Probably will cut support removal time in half if less

[@SlicePrintRoleplay]

You are very welcome! Yeah it's always great to see your print time drop after tweaking your settings. Let me know how these settings work out for you. 😊

[@TheFozze]

Fantastic tutorial for beginners like myself. I was trying to add supports in blender by hand before discovering this, and lemme tell ya, it did not go well.

Fairly new to 3d printing and these video has helped me a lot-keep up the good work. I just have one question. What temperatures, print speeds and fans speeds would you recommend when printing with supports?

[@SlicePrintRoleplay]

I typically leave the speed settings at the defaults for the standard Cura profile for 0.2mm, 0.1mm, etc. As for nozzle temp. I'd highly recommend printing a temp tower test for each filament you use on each printer. That will help you determine how to get the best results. Here's an easy way to set up a temp tower test. kzbin.info/www/bejne/e3KqkGhpbdCSmK8

[@easy_3d]

I mostly use tree support because its easy to remove, i am using 0.2mm support z distance and 0.8mm support x/y distance, but sometimes my supports are fusing to the model. Im using FLSUN super racer printer. Should i increase fan speed so that supports dont fuse?

[@matteoguidotti3905]

Thank you very much for this video! I used this setup and prints were awesome, the only problem I have is Support Interface fusing with the print. Should I decrease interface thickness or density? Or maybe increase the support Z distance?

[@SlicePrintRoleplay]

That's great to hear! It's hard to say without seeing your prints. However, yes in general I'd start by reducing the Support Z Distance. Just remember the rounding rule I explained in this video. If you run into issues feel free to post about them in my Facebook group I respond pretty quickly there.

[@mickbrandt5588]

i managed to pull the leg of frodo when it had printet for 15 hours :P. luckily it was a clean "cut" so i could glue the leg on. but yeah the support is a bish sometimes, used tree support and i had so much trouble getting it off. im gonna have to use the z distance because i didnt know about that, and it was so stuck to the figure i almost gave up getting it off

Thank you for this! I just got the new ender 3 v3 se. When I had to choose my printer, it was not an option so I chose Ender 3 / v2. Is this an okay configuration? I also changed the build size to 220 from 235

That may work, but the Ender 3 v2 and V3 have different styles of extruder. So you may see some issues. You'll probably get better results from using the printer profile for the Elegoo Neptune 3 Pro. It's very similar to the Ender 3 V3. Also, the bed of the V3 is actually 235. It's set up to not use the edges of the bed because some types of beds need clips to hold them in place. Cutting the bed from 235 to 220 (in the software) helps ensure that the nozzle doesn't hit those clips. However, with magnetic beds you can actually use 100% of your build volume because there are no bed clips to worry about.

Thanks about the brim I just got a 3d printer and tried to build a small helmet off a small part of the helmet and the chin got all messed up now I can try again with better results

[@SlicePrintRoleplay]

Sounds like a fun project. Best of luck!

Any clue on when that tree support video is coming out?

[@SlicePrintRoleplay]

That will be coming soon actually. 😊

I'm new to 3d printing and I'm glad to see that vid. I'll try all. Thank you so much and do you have any vids for retraction?

[@SlicePrintRoleplay]

You are very welcome! I'm glad you found the video helpful. I don't have any videos on retraction currently, but I will hopefully have one soon.

@@SlicePrintRoleplay thank youuu. I just have öne questıon. Your prints looks so good and you don't have any zip marks. I have so much zıp marks. How can I fix it? Already thanks you.
