Ear Saver-Printing multiple

Hi All,

I am new to 3D printing, and I'm hoping to get help. I'm printing ear savers first, and will donate them to our local hospitals. I have a file for one but would like to print multiple either single layer or stacking.

My apologies if this has been discussed previously or is an easy fix. I only want to help our community.

FILE HERE

Hopefully someone can help?

 

Thank you,

 

D

Assuming you're using PrusaSlicer, add the object, press '+' several times to add more copies of the same, and then you can automatically arrange it on the print plate by pressing 'A'.

Stacking them on top of each other is neigh impossible with this type of printer (FDM).

Here is a forum post about stacking: https://forum.prusa3d.com/forum/prusaslicer/stacking-how-to-set-up-in-prusaslicer/

Have a look at my models on Printables.com 😉

RE: Ear Saver-Printing multiple

I've been printing a different model, unfortunately not one that lends itself to stacking: https://3dprint.nih.gov/discover/3dpx-013410

I'm able to fit 10 of the ones that I'm printing on a MK3S print bed, but I had to hand-pack them. Using the auto arrange feature only gets 7 on the bed at a time, so you may want to play around manually packing them on the bed.
