This is me playing around with nonplanar layers by varying layer height as the nozzle moves around a circle. Even though each layer only varies in thickness by about 0.3mm, with each new layer, the difference in height between the highest / lowest points gets bigger and bigger. So eventually, after lots of layers the top surface of the part is very nonplanar. So the whole top surface of this part is printed in one continuous pass of the nozzle. I also did a sine wave in the X-Y direction to get the rippled texture 〰

Hey - this is awesome. From the ‘NonplanarCylinder' example ? I ordered the longer nozzle and hope to try this same print. In the short term - looking to experiment with the setttings in Excel and see the shapes. However, when I try to cut/past over the rows from the "paper examples" to the main sheet - it gives me an error. Is there a particular trick to moving them?

Thanks. This is a slightly modified version of that design because it has ripples. But smooth contours without ripples look awesome too! The designs probably reference parameters that are saved with the designs. So you'll either need to copy those parameters across too and click the button to refresh parameter names or use the Load Design option (I'd recommend this). Then you can copy your printer's settings cells to overwrite those of the newly loaded design.

I just discovered FullControl. I love it, I will try all the prints tomorrow on my printers at work. (Machines-3D, France)

Great! Hope it goes well. Just ask if anything isn't clear :)

FYI, the demo prints are often just to highlight the design method, although I did print most of them
