Non-planar 3D printing in a modern slicer thanks to the community

Check out my 2nd channel, TT Racing: https://www.youtube.com/@TTRacingYT Non-planar 3D printing is truly mesmerising to watch, and for the right type of model, vastly improves the appearance and surface quality. Thanks to the community, this feature is now available in a recent version of PrusaSlicer. In this video, I take you through the journey, the quirks, and the potential of non-planar 3D printing. Hopefully this code can be ported into other slicers and developed even further. Even in its current experimental form it’s still worth having. Try it now on Windows (and hopefully others soon): https://github.com/teachingtechYT/PrusaSlicer/releases/ 0:00 Introduction 2024 mysteries video: https://youtu.be/SeKjtBH2K_c 0:43 What is non-planar 3D printing?
