Hey guys, I’ve just completed my first prints. The top surfaces and sides came out really good, but the undersides came out a little rough. Especially where supports were, what’s the accepted standards for cleaning these areas up? Sandpaper, files, dremel?
What settings should I be looking at to make my next prints even better in these areas?
My setup: Qidi xplus3 Sunlu PLA + 2.0 (using its default filament profile in orca) @ 230/60 300blkfde’s orca/machine settings. 12 walls, 80% infill. Layer height: .2 Support distances: .19
I appreciate the feedback!


Few more pics of this lower. Overall I’m very impressed with how it came out for my first 2A print, even with the roughness on where the supports were.
I started working on them this evening a little by sanding with some mini files lightly. I think going slow and easy with the files and then some light finish sanding with sandpaper will clean them up pretty well.
