A print\u2019s vertical structure is achieved through a build-up of layers, but not all layers are created equally.<\/p>\n<p>Two major aspects of a model are layer heights and top layers. Layer height is the thickness of each layer, measured in fractions of a millimeter. The thinner the layer, the more finely detailed the resulting object. However, truly tiny layers can result in huge printing times, layer defects, or even total failure, meaning that there must be a balance between time and detail.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_104261\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-104261\" style=\"width: 360px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-104261\" src=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/the-figure-on-the-left-is-visibly-smoother-with-l-comlekcicekirge-via-reddit-200613_download.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"360\" height=\"270\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-104261\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The figure on the left is visibly smoother, with layer lines just 0.04 mm thinner (Source: comlekcicekirge via Reddit)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><strong>Tips &amp; Tricks<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Start with a 0.01-mm layer height. <\/strong>This setting usually looks great without taking too long to print.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sometimes, quantity beats quality.<\/strong> Try increasing the layer heights for a faster print time on minis that work in a mob, such as an army of goblins. They won\u2019t look as intricate, but players won\u2019t mind if there is more to fight!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Experiment with adaptive layers.<\/strong> For minis with areas of less visual importance, such as the base of this <a rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.myminifactory.com\/object\/3d-print-innocence-122431\" target=\"_blank\">statue<\/a>, try working with adaptive layers \u2013 maintain quality where it counts, and gain print speed where it doesn\u2019t.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Consider the top layers.<\/strong> When printing something with a flat top such as a <a rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.myminifactory.com\/object\/3d-print-15-amazons-bases-free-bundle-124374\" target=\"_blank\">base<\/a> for your miniature, top layers become an issue. (\u201cTop layers\u201d refers to the number of layers on the top of your model.) The finer the layer height settings, the more top layers are required to give a smooth, flat surface and avoid pillowing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Although these are all important aspects to consider, layers aren\u2019t the only way to achieve your perfect miniature.

Too fast, and you can encounter issues like blobs, poor layer adhesion, or even knocking the print off the bed entirely. Too slow, and you risk print failure from things like drafts or power surges as more time passes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPrint speed\u201d is a catch-all term for several secondary settings, and your specific print may require you to tweak some or all of them.<\/p>\n<h3>Tips &amp; Tricks<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Slow down the initial layer.<\/strong> The key to a good print is a solid first layer, so, the slower the first layer prints, the better the base and adhesion of the rest of the print should be.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Optimize your travel speed.<\/strong> This is the speed at which the print head moves while not extruding. If too low, you can encounter bloated print times for intricate models with lots of tapering points and valleys, like this model of <a rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.myminifactory.com\/object\/3d-print-xenia-hunter-heroine-amazons-kickstarter-123095\" target=\"_blank\">Xenia, Hunter Heroine<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Too much speed is dangerous.<\/strong> Be aware that if you increase the travel speed too much, the print could get knocked off the build plate entirely if it gets rammed by the nozzle.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Tweak your retraction speed.<\/strong> The retraction speed is how quickly the filament is pulled back into the print head before traveling. If it\u2019s not pulled back quickly enough, it can drip onto the model.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Now that we\u2019ve addressed speed, let\u2019s take a look at something else that\u2019s crucial to get right the first time: supports.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Cura Slicer Secret for Perfect 1st Layer Prints\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/pAFDEn3wGYo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"headline headline--xxl\">Supports<\/h2>\n<p>Everyone needs support sometimes, and miniatures are no different.<\/p>\n<p>In this case, support refers to the structures generated by the slicer program to keep the parts of the print that overhang the build plate, such as the wings and upraised arm of an <a rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.myminifactory.com\/object\/3d-print-ashen-manticore-123778\" target=\"_blank\">Ashen Manticore<\/a> model. Without supports, models like this would probably collapse, or in extreme cases, be printed in mid-air without anything underneath!<\/p>\n<p>However, supports bring their own problems, namely that they have to be removed after printing, which can leave pockmarks or other damage on the model. Even worse, supports are often used for areas of visual focus (like dramatically upraised arms), which means any marks will be clearly visible.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_104257\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-104257\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-104257\" src=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/does-this-pegasus-have-too-many.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"562\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-104257\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Does this Pegasus have too many supports, or too few?

However, there are ways to control these temperature changes for better results. Generally, printers use the cooling fan included with the hot end to blow air onto the print.<\/p>\n<p>Cooling is more important for miniatures than for larger models, as the hot end will remain in a confined area for longer, which can increase the chance of artifacts or even deformation.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_104256\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-104256\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-104256\" src=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/cooling-off-left-vs-cooling-on-r.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"562\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-104256\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cooling off (left) vs. cooling on (right) (Source: Tech2C via YouTube)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Tips &amp; Tricks<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Ensure cooling is activated. <\/strong>Check this in Cura by going to the Cooling menu and making sure the \u201cEnable Print Cooling\u201d box is selected.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cooling is filament dependent.<\/strong> The level of cooling needed depends on what kind of plastic you\u2019re using. <a rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/materials\/fdm-pla\" target=\"_blank\">PLA<\/a> requires cooling during the entire print, while <a rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/materials\/fdm-petg\" target=\"_blank\">PETG<\/a> and <a rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/materials\/fdm-abs-m30\" target=\"_blank\">ABS<\/a> require little to none, and can even fail if over-cooled.

Regular maintenance of your FDM printer will enable you to print reliably and accurately, whether it\u2019s an army of low-quality grots or an intricately detailed <a rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.myminifactory.com\/object\/3d-print-three-headed-dragon-101723\" target=\"_blank\">three-headed dragon<\/a>. A few areas to keep in mind are bed leveling, nozzle cleaning, and the occasional upgrade if required.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_104255\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-104255\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-104255\" src=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/like-your-car-regular-maintenanc.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"562\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-104255\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Like your car, regular maintenance is vital for a 3D printer (Source: Nexi Tech via YouTube)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><strong>Tips &amp; Tricks<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>A clean nozzle is essential.<\/strong> A clogged nozzle can leave blobs on your mini, or worse, cause under-extrusion. If you haven\u2019t changed filaments for a while, consider performing a cold pull to clean out any build-up in the hot end.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Invest in spare nozzles.<\/strong> You can also purchase cheap replacement nozzles to switch out regularly. A side benefit to this is having a variety of nozzle diameters, allowing you to experiment with increased flow rates or thinner layer heights.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Check your print bed is level.<\/strong> Bed leveling is probably the most-encountered problem printers have, as even a slight change in alignment can ruin a print. If you have a manually leveled printer, there is a downloadable G-code that you can run to help semi-automate the process. Alternatively, you can purchase an automatic bed-leveling sensor like the BLTouch.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If your printer came as a build-it-yourself kit, like the Creality Ender 3, the bed may not be perfectly level. This can cause your other calibrations to be off \u2013 and useless. To check, place your printer on a flat, stable surface like a table, and press down on each corner of the base. If it rocks, it needs adjustment. Thankfully, what can be built, can be modified. Check online to troubleshoot your specific model of printer.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_104254\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-104254\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-104254\" src=\"https:\/\/facfox.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/imagine-your-opponents-facing-he.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"711\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-104254\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Imagine your opponents facing her!
