Printing tips Printed with 0.16 and 0.2 layer height 2-3 walls No supports needed Some infill may be usefull (7-10%) Arachne wall generator NOT recommended (use Classic instead) - it makes some ugly lines on top in few places

May be harder to print than typical models You will need a good bed adhesion and a good cooling

You may be needed to separate spring coils from each other after a print. Usually just with your finger nails, in some more rare cases with a thin knife (scalpel) It mostly depends on your seam settings and filament stringing

MULTICOLOR

Select SpringBee and all of MULTI files, then drop them in slicer, merge together and select color for each part

Multicolor files are with a 'frame' that helps with models aligning DO NOT try to 'repair' the models - frame will not be printed and it's not causing any problems with slicing

Tips if the model is breaking

Filament should be dry and with good self adhesion Printing with wet filament will make the model more brittle (especially PLA) and model may break when stretched

Silk filaments (especially dual or tripple color) and the ones with particles (like 'marble') may not be a good option - but it all depends on the filament

You can try printing it slower, bonds between layers should be stronger
