Best way to remove supports
Hi, when I remove the supports, they leave tiny dents. Is there any way to effectively prevent this?
My procedure:
- I wash the print in IPA.
- Dry it.
- Put it in hot water for about 1 min and then remove the supports immediately.
- Cure the model.
The dents are not extreme, but they are noticeable.

RE: Best way to remove supports
I try and get the supports off after washing. Without any drying at all.
But I also get some holes.
I guess the alternate option would be a little nub you have to sand down instead. WIth some other slither there can be otions for adding a ball at the tip of the support for connecting it with the model.
Cant remember which slicer it was (tried it once, didnt liked the handling and deleted it ^^)
Or you can try and just make the tip of the supports very small, but then you have to add more supports
