KNITTED STACKABLE STORAGE BOXES (Patreon)

Hello my friends!

Here's the project I was talking to you about a few days ago, and on which I need your input!

The primary goal of this project was to create a "knitted" texture that was easy to paint in the slicer.

Most of these textures are usually created in surface 3D software. Which often leaves poorly defined areas when comes the time to paint the model in the slicer.

So what I did was to create a complete texture in my parametric 3d solid software. Which means that each stitch of the knitting is in fact a well-defined solid.

The whole thing is very tedious and takes a lot of time. So I don't think I'll be using this technique again in the near future but I had to try. And I still learned a lot during this test.

Where I have a problem is with the print itself! I think my filament is wet and that's causing me a problem at the tip, at the base of each stitch. Like an under extrusion effect.

So I want to know if you are having the same problem or if everything is going well on your side.

So go ahead, test it out and let me know what your results are.

Since I use a lot of filaments for my designs, I don't have time to dry them all and I strongly believe that my problem is due to the humidity in spring. But I need confirmation!

In the photos there are examples of designs that can be made with the painting tool, but feel free to try whatever you want!

Have fun, test the settings and keep me informed.
