Just choosing different views does the trick. I am hoping that choosing a raft and supports everywhere will allow me to print knots. I don&#8217;t know how often to clean the glue off the build plate, so I&#8217;ll probably try that tomorrow. Today (before finding out about the views in Cura) I got a nice print of a solid tetrahedron for my future Calculus III classes. It is from dennedesigns in Thingiverse. With its solid base, it didn&#8217;t have any problems printing. There were some bumps on one of the sides (the slanted one), but the base and two vertical sides have very nice quality. I love having the equations etched into the faces!<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.uwsp.edu\/math\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2016\/09\/Tetra-1-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"tetra-1\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.uwsp.edu\/math\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2016\/09\/Tetra-2-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"tetra-2\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.uwsp.edu\/math\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2016\/09\/Tetra-3-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"tetra-3\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>I also saw a need and came up with my own design for it tonight. That was exciting. I was wishing for an SD card holder now that I am carrying them between home and work so much. I saw some in Thingiverse, but they looked like they required more skill in printing then I have right now, so I created my own super basic one in Tinkercad! I look forward to trying it out tomorrow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Model for Calculus III<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":67,"featured_media":33,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.uwsp.edu\/math\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.uwsp.edu\/math\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.uwsp.edu\/math\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.uwsp.edu\/math\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/67"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.uwsp.edu\/math\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=32"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/blog.uwsp.edu\/math\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":39,"href":"https:\/\/blog.uwsp.edu\/math\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/32\/revisions\/39"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.uwsp.edu\/math\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/33"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.uwsp.edu\/math\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=32"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.uwsp.edu\/math\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=32"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.uwsp.edu\/math\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=32"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
