TenTech Video: Brick Layers Script for Prusa/Orca/Derivatives. (www.youtube.com)

submitted 6 days ago by dual_sport_dork to c/3dprinting

6 comments fedilink hide all child comments

TL;DW: A fairly automatic postprocessing script to convert your print's walls to brick layers to attempt to achieve more tensile strength in the Z axis, i.e. against layer separation. Some brief description of the current patent clusterfuck, and an observation that the new patent in question (which is probably void anyway) has not been filed in Europe...

Link to the author's github for this: https://github.com/TengerTechnologies/Bricklayers

It seems from the github issues report that this is not 100% perfect, but it appears to be at least mostly functional for those of us who would like to mess with this and not have to do it manually.

Note, I am not the author of this.

If you're thinking about switching to prusaslicer just make the jump to Orca Slicer. It's a fork of Prusa and Bambu sliver and has awesome community support. Make sure you only get it from the GitHub, there are a bunch of sketchy websites trying to serve you less reputable versions.

I've been using Prusaslicer for a while and am quite happy with it. Why would I move to Orcaslicer?

Built in tuning for filaments and printers was what sold me
