3D PRINTING / SLICER NOTES
The mesh screen can be tricky to setup in the slicer. The screen is composed of two bodies. The framing body and the screen infill body. The infill body is only 2 layers thick with 0 bottom or top layers, and set to 25% rectilinear infill. Overlap set to 25% or above. (see images for part settings)
Have fun and happy bug catching!
