Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • I use Cura as well. 6 walls, support interface, support z distance 0.16, xy 0.64, normal supports, touching buildplate.
  • use a slicer (I use Cura but there are a few good options now) to convert the model into instructions (gcode) for the printer.
  • In Cura I used Dynamic Quality 0.16mm, flow set to 96%, horizontal expansion set to -0.08mm.

Cons

  • No experience with prusaslicer, i use Cura mostly.
  • Cura allows you to do this. When you're in the prepare view, select support blocker and click on your model.
  • I am currently using bambu slicer, previously used cura & orca.
  • In Cura, that's done by setting "Normal" instead of "Tree" for Support Structure, and turning off "Touching build plate" in favour of "Everywhere" in Support Placement.
  • I use Cura as a slicer but should I use a separate one for this?

When I had an Ender 3 v2 using cura, I dreaded the support removals.
