Support material
Task
You know Christmas is far far away, but you’d still like to print a model of a Christmas tree. Unfortunately, this model needs support material to be printed. Use Slic3r settings that generates the support.
For father Christmas to rest, you’ll also print a little chair for him. Unfortunately the legs of the chair are to small and the model does not stick to the printing bed. Make sure you’ll use appropriate Slic3r settings to fix this (remember what we said about options like Raft and Brim).
Get the correct Slic3er config bundle with fixed bridges.
