I have been printing a number of sculptures this week and while mostly good, I am seeing repeated issues associated with settings.

First, supports will wrap around a hand or foot and can be difficult or impossible to remove without damaging the print.

Second, a support will fall over resulting in spaghetti infill/gaps for a portion of the print.

I am printing with both a Bambu Lab P1P and X1C using Overture Rock White PETG.

Bambu studio doesn’t have support painting? I’m using it in Orca slicer but maybe that was brought in from prusa slicer.

I use Orcaslicer, it’s manual painting is not intuitive to me. That said, I haven’t much researched how to do manual painting of supports either.

I think it’s the next logical step in my building domain expertise in 3D printing though. It just seems like a leap.
