Two Prints Fail in same Location












2














My attempted prints on my Creative Ender3 of model:
This is the spinning top totem from the movie Inception.
https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:23686



The print uses support structures (generated by Ultimaker Cura) failed in the same location twice. It is printed in PLA (1.75 mm) first print at 200 °C, second print at 196 °C.

          To me, it looks like your G-code induces an incomplete layer of support on the still standing piece, which later down leads to the print failing.



          Re-slice the whole thing.



          As a matter of fact, I would cut the model in its widest place and print both with the large face flat on the surface and glue the two pieces together after printing. That way I can achieve:




          • no need for support material

          • maximum adhesion

          • no surface problems on the transition from the support to the print

            Good advice to print this in 2 pieces, lots of supports are usually a pain for printing as the chances that something goes wrong increases significantly with the increasing amount of support.
