After selecting the most suitable software from the simple explanations provided in the previous text, we can proceed to create a design suitable for the 3D printer.
Design becomes crucial in 3D printers that primarily employ layered manufacturing techniques. In structures constructed by layer upon layer, it is essential that no part remains suspended and that each layer is connected to the previous one.
If, due to the complexity of the design, there are overhanging sections, it is necessary to add support to these areas to achieve accurate printing.
Furthermore, the most challenging aspect during the design process, particularly in setting stones, is creating the stone settings. These structures, referred to as prongs, must all be designed in an upward direction.
These design intricacies mentioned are essential attributes that must not be overlooked. We can address the issue of overhanging surfaces or downward-facing prong tips by introducing supports. However, the more supports we use, the more resin waste we'll encounter.
Also, certain parts of the models are highly delicate and critical enough not to undergo post-processing. Adding support to these areas might result in permanent marks on the model.
