How To Add Supports for 3D Printing Jewelry

Sure, you could use your software’s auto-generate function to add supports to your 3D printing jewelry model. But understanding where, when and why to add supports can minimize finishing time and reduce resin waste. In this crash course, Scott Bradford shows you how to set up your model for constant contact with the build platform to ensure complete print every time. Using Formlabs’ PreForm software Scott covers support placement, raft surface area, touchpoint size, orientation and more. And even if you use a different brand of printer, there are a lot of transferrable concepts that will help you get great results.
