3. Tips and recommendations

• If possible, try to avoid any support material. When using flexible filaments, it is really hard to remove them afterwards.
• When removing your model from the bed, first remove the glass from the machine. If the model does not pop-off immediately, use one of the spatulas available at the workshop and apply pressure . Please use safety gloves to prevent accidents.
