This is an interesting topic. I had not thought to try this with FDM. I find I get the best results with rotation and customizing supports. I print minis either flat on their back or at 45 degree tilt back. In most cases this allows for less clean up on the face and front which have the most details (though the layer lines on rounded areas can be affected). Also, weapons printed this way are less likely to break then printed in a standing position due to the way it lays the layers down. In some cases you can reduce the amount of support you need depending on the areas that need support. Another option for bigger minis is to cut parts off that add tons of support to print separately in different orientation and pin them on later.

Yeah, when you have your nose on the mini you can see everything. When you have the mini on the table that's how you should be rating/judging it. If someone is a mini nut they're using a resin printer to start with. Back when I was looking at 3d printers a few years back the above type of advise from you and other folks made a huge difference.... ... the same applies to painting (you always point out your own lack of perceived painting skills). It doesn't matter if it looks like poo under your nose. It looks good from a few feet away on the table top? Good, that's where it needs to look good ;). Don't let anyone step on that. And painting are printing have something in common. The more you learn and experience the art of doing either the better you get. No one starts out as a master. Don't get discouraged, we hopefully learn from our mistakes so that the next time we kick butt when faced with what used to be a problem.

I’ve been using the Creality slicer for my Ender 6 since it isn’t presupported on most other softwares. I noodled around with my support infills and got them to a point of being almost totally hollow but still able to hold the model, so I have taken to setting the custom cylinder supports, and usually this works fine. I still sometimes have issues with an arm falling on or something, but dropping the support density really helped with removal without appearing to be too much of a detriment to the quality. It ends up looking similar to the auto supports, but with just a little less in unwarranted areas to speed up removal.

I'd like to see a followup video where you test out different modifications to the settings that would allow for higher fidelity. Maybe the resin supports will work better if you rotate the model, retraction speeds, etc. I backed the Kickstarter for these and am looking forward to printing them on my snapmaker 2 when it comes in November. Having a good printing profile based on your experiments here would be a great help.

How about tree supports? I've had some pretty good luck using them as generated with Cura. Speaking of Cura, if you decide to "upgrade" to version 4.2.1, don't uninstall your 4.0.0 until you've used the newer version for a little while. I used 4.2.1 for a while then went back to 4.0.0. Some of the changes in the new version are good but for some reason a lot of my prints were failing due to various reasons such as under extrusion and supports getting knocked off. I'll continue to play around with 4.2.1 but for the bulk of my prints I'll continue using 4.0.0.

Really love this topic and the idea of it. Is something I will definitely try, tho instead of using the Chitubox supports or generating supports there, I will try using Prusa Slicer with their SL1 Printer profile to generate supports. When my photon has had issues lately with chitubox supports, the Prusa Slicer autogenerated supports succeeded perfectly on the exact same prints without having to change or fix anything. Using Prusa Slicer to generate supports before slicing in Chitubox for the .photon file is my new go-to process. Am def going to try using Prusa SL1 profile to generate supports, then switch to Prusa Slicer MK3S printer profile to slice and print.

Something that you can do to improve the surface quality is to put a space between the tip of the support and the model. You want that to be just bigger than your profile setting for how close things need to be to be joined together (I can't remember what it is called).

hmmm weird. S3D has the best supports I've ever used. It takes anything I throw at it with a decent surface quality on bottom layers, and no marks what so ever on top layers. And they come off super easily. sometimes the supports stick to the buildplate instead of the print when I take them off. I'd reccomend playing with your bridging settings (the first layer above a support is considered a bridge), use dense support layers and tune those. its a quality vs ease of removal thing.

Hey Danny I was wondering if you might have any settings advice for a 0.2mm nozzle when printing small miniatures 35mm and under at a layer height of 0.04-0.08mm. specifically speed, retraction, and flow rates?

Do you mean .04 to .08 layer height? Cause .4 is bigger than your nozzle...

Whenever I try to import the printing profile for the Minis to cura i always get a error message pop up, does anyone else have this issue?

I've had decent results with the experimental tree supports on Cura. No support residue on the bottom of the model, base and such.

The big problem I've always had with tree supports in Cura: they're very hit or miss. Sometimes they work really well, and other times the whole mini is covered in a shell and smaller parts break off. The most common occurrence though is a part not being supported fully and failing regardless. Adding custom supports allowed me to make sure certain parts were supported (especially good for things like dragon wings).

Trees can work really well, but they can also be a nightmare to remove. As Tabletop said, often the print ends up enveloped in the tree and it turns into an paleontological excavation. The other downside is that the blemishes from the support contact points are hard to clean up. It is worth noting that the case that was really troublesome was an extremely difficult print. Namely, the gargoyle from Heroquest, printed in a single piece - look it up and it'll be obvious why it was big trouble. The fact that it actually came out, in a rather brittle transparent PLA, no less, shows that the tree, despite its flaws, has a lot of potential.

Danny, try using the Chitu sphere connection upper and lower connection points, see if that makes them cleaner to remove, it does for me.

I'm not sure if you noticed, but I used these on the Owlbear test print. Removal was OK, but not really any easier to get a clean flush cut on. Thanks for the suggestion!

@@3DPrintedTabletop , no I did not notice. Good to know. I know it is out side your scope of the video but there is some setting to reduce depth and contact area that might also help. Happy Printing
