This model can help you when making 3d designs.

  1. Open this model in PrusaSlicer
  2. Set your desired nozzle, layer height, perimeters, and extrusion width
  3. Compare which dimension looks preferable. Typically, I find that the dimension that is one size smaller than the first appearance of “gap fills” is both the strongest and the fastest to print.
  4. Use that dimension when designing your model.

My cheat sheet so far:

PrusaSlicer DefaultsAn Ideal Dimension
0.4n @ 0.20 layers1.3 mm
0.4n @ 0.20 layers1.6 mm
0.4n @ 0.30 layers2.0 mm
0.6n @ 0.30 layers1.9 mm
0.8n @ 0.40 layers1.7 mm
0.8n @ 0.40 layers2.6 mm
0.8n @ 0.55 layers1.9 mm
