How To Cut Large 3D Models For Stronger Prints - Bambu Studio Tutorial | BamBamPrint.com

Love your vids at 1:19 I think the image is a Box and or Finger Joint. Dovetail is having an angle applied to the 90 degree finger joint. 7‐15 deg also rather than just Bambu lab these tutorials are identical to Orca Slicer which is open-source for all us non Bambu operators

Hi, yes the images were merely for representation. In the groove settings you can change it to box and finger. I probably should have shown more variety.

@@bambamprint Thats awesome I have only stuck to dove tail and the dowel like connectors. Learned a ton from your video Thanks again!

[@bambamprint]

@@Seaofjitsu Hey glad I could help. Being a woodworker myself, I migrated directly to the dovetail option. I also experimented with the dowel connectors and snaps too. But in the end the other options just don't compare to the cut tool dovetail in Bambu Studio. Or like you mention the Orca slicer cut tool.

I really wish dovetail cuts would allow the right click to remove unwanted portions to be cut so you could do the best dovetail cut rather than worry about catching different parts of the model.

[@bambamprint]

Exactly what I mention in the video. If we could isolate the cut and change its size that would be amazing!

Your confusing dove tail and box joint in your images.

[@bambamprint]

Ya I understand the difference.

I printed an Ironman helmet, the ear pieces broke off, so I went in to Bambu studio and cut out the ear pieces to print. However, when I hit slice, I get an error saying there's no layers and that I need to repair my model...No idea what I need to repair. I use the regular cut, not the dovetail cut since my Ironman helmet is already printed with the broken ear pieces.

[@bambamprint]

Does the error say Error: XX non-manifold edges (repair) in the bottom right corner?

[@archemity]

@@bambamprint it says "no layers generated, repair your model". yes its at the bottom right corner.

[@bambamprint]

@@archemity Ok try clicking the Green repair text. It should auto repair the model for you.
