Super large build plate - why?


#1

Hello!

I am working with a model from Gambody… and one part hollows fine and supports are added just fine. But i wanted to add a plate to it… so I added it. And… it is ENORMOUS! Other parts work fine… but, this one is crazy large and I don’t understand why. There isn’t any excessive pieces to the model.

Suggestions on how to fix this?

mm which type of place are you trying to add?
And did you try different shapes?

I was only working with the model in the image (Timber Wolf top half from Gambody). It is a problem still, but someone on Facebook told me a work around. I increased the bed size by 100mm in X and Y, then added supports and the plate, and shrunk the build plate back down. It worked, and it fit, so I still don’t understand why it was an issue.
