Stringing and integrity issue when printing large openings in model
I'm trying to print the large Peloton bottle holder model from Printables using PETG and 0.3mm DRAFT layer height. The model printed well except for the stringing and integrity issues around the large openings. I see other models in the Make pictures that look quite good in those areas.
Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong would be greatly appreciated.

You probably need supports for that model

Thanks for the help! I notice that the only option that generates support is when I select Everywhere. Since I'm new and never printed with supports before, how hard is it to remove them once complete?

are you using prusa slicer 2.5.0? if so, you can use painted on supports.
there is am option for support "Style" choose 'Snug'

Thanks, @joantabb! It worked perfectly! I was missing the Snug setting.
