Object Orientation
I'm just curious what orientation and/or positioning people are using with their Minis to achieve ideal detail on models.
With the cooling coming from the rear and the X-axis only being supported on one side of the print bed, there are bound to be ideal print bed locations/rotation other than default center.
I would assume better detail would be achieved the closer the model is to the Z-axis motor which in theory, would grant the smallest layer variability.
And I assumed the back of the models would have the best detail because of the cooling fan orientation.
All of this leads me to believe that models should face the rear of the print bed and be placed as far to the right as possible.
Any other opinions?
RE: Object Orientation
I regularly move my prints around the bed and I have not noticed a difference no matter the location. However, I do have my MINI in an enclosure and the objects I print are rather small, rarely taking up more than half the bed and not very tall. I do sometimes align my prints closer to the Z-axis for the reason you mentioned but I think I'm just being superstitious when I do it.
