Reinforcing around holes
Hi Guys,
Just took delivery of my new Mk3 and have started drawing and printed.
I designed a bracket that has bolt through it to clamp on to something, the problem I have is that there isn't enough material around the bolt hole and crushes easily when you do the bolt up. Other than printed the whole thing solid is there a way to reinforce certain parts of the bracket?
Many thanks
Russ

RE: Reinforcing around holes
Use MODIFIERS in the slicer to add perimeters to key areas that need more strength.

RE: Reinforcing around holes
Adjust slicer with more perimeters.
2 is standard, make this 4 or 6.
More infill will also help, max is 40 or 50%
Use different filament.
Use MODIFIERS to fill in to 100%, there where you need it.
