Hey, this is an awesome model, but I have an issue when printing it. Front legs joints remains glued. I think the problem is that the hinge is not horizontal to the plate, so it doesn't bridge, but overhangs instead: https://jmp.sh/s/FWE8SmKxABy9fMmkxzH4
Could you fix this?
Hi good catch, these hinges do usually print even if they aren't perfectly horizontal, but you're right. Are you printing this at 100% or smaller?
I've experimented more and found that a non-horizontal hinge isn't the main issue. It turns out there's just not enough space around the hinge - below, above, and on one side.
I added negative objects in the slicer to address this, but now the legs have become too loose, and it's hard to make the figure stand :D
If you have time to look into it, it’d be awesome to get this great model fixed. But if not, no worries - it’s not a big deal, of course!
At 100%, and I tried two layer heights of 0.2 and 0.16, but had the issue with both.
