Missing parts in 3d print
-
Hello everyone.
I have just downloads "solid inspector", because I had problems with missing parts when 3d Printing. Now the print is "solid", but there are still missing parts on the print result. Can anybody help? The file is attached.

Hi Eddie,

Even if your SKP model is perfectly formed and a 'solid', there can still be limitations with the 3d-printer itself.
Sometimes fine details or thin parts cannot be manufactured.
Because you can model it doesn't mean you can 3d-print it.
Such limitations vary with the 3d-printer-type and the material being used.
The printing-firm should give guidance on the minimum [and maximum] sizes - like indentations, surface protrusions, thin walls, slim post/beam sections etc... these are often often ~1mm and 3mm respectively... but find out...
If in doubt ask...
Your SKP model needs to be setup to be printable - they want you to succeed - so get it right before submission...
