Lots of good stuff I learned there. The custom support idea is just genious.

Im new to 3d printing, hope you see this, but I dont understand how the supports support anything when there is a 0.4mm gap between the support and the overhang.

I have an updated version of this Fusion parametric if you would like it. f3d file.

Thank you, this skill is gonna help me a lot making especially tank engines that have extended side tanks. Happy modeling sir!!

I always learn so much from every one of your videos! I have been able to add so many tricks and techniques to my Fusion 360 toolbox Thanks once again, Vladimir

Thanks Brian! That's awesome to hear! Glad you're finding my videos helpful.

Perfect way to design supports! 0.2 mm gap between support and model worked also very well for me!

[@dkabell]

Excellent presentation. I found your channel while searching for custom supports. I came to a similar conclusion trying to develop breakaway support for a near vertical, but small model. My challenge is that using my Bambu A1 the acceleration, deceleration tends to break my supports, but still trying to refine the process. Your demo confirmed I am using the right approach. Regardless your technique narrative, pace, and annunciation/voice is the best I have experienced. This info is so valuable to those of us trying do do functional design and production. Than you so much.

Just what I was looking for… Making temporary support. Thank you for sharing

[@osvaldo56]

Great video Vladimir! thanks for sharing.

[@DesktopMakes]

Thanks Osvaldo! Glad you enjoyed it!.

Looking at the supports at 2:18 it seems there is a tall unsupported area just to the left of the supports you made. Was that an oversight? If it was intentional, what was the reason you left that area unsupported? Thanks!

[@DesktopMakes]

Hi grandwaz0o, that was intentional. The printer has the ability to bridge so you don't have to support every overhang.

[@grandwaz0o]

@@DesktopMakes thank you!

[@eusouocara23]

Great tip!!! Curious about the bottom layer on top of the support if it sagged at all.. seems the gap would make a sag. Maybe not since you didn’t mention it. Great video and thanks for your details and time put into these tutorials!
