How to change layer height between a hollow cylinder and Solid one
Hi Guys,
I am trying to make model where a hollow cylinder connects to a solid one. When i print it the solid cylinder is barely connected to the lower one.
So i was wondering with such a model can one change the thickness of this space between where the two cylinders join.
Or is there something wrong with how i done my model.
Thanks
Les

Hi Joan,
Will do, just wasn't sure how but do now. Tried but an error came back "Invalid file extension) when i tried to attach an STL.

Hi. This is a section of your part. See anything wrong?

oh yah - at the 6mm layer you have no connection between the top part and the bottom part. Did you intend for the bottom part to be filled? Because it isn't ;-). If you intended the bottom part to be hollow, you need at least a couple of layers that go all the way across.
