Shell function for a complex boat body.

Hello all,

 

I need a help with shell function for a boat model.

I´m trying to create a shell from the solid body of my boat, the boat includes sprayers at the bottom which were created by loft function and ends in a point (so many faces which ends in a point).

If I split the body it works but only for some thickness values for example 2mm-not works but 30mm works.

I need to create shells with different thicknesses and than combine it, but for splitted body one value works and another one not works.

 

Project you can find in annex.

Please help me what I´m doing wrong 🙂

 

Thank you in advance!

 

Peter

PrusaSlicer can do custom infill as well as custom supports.  You shouldn't need to split the body to print.

Really nice prints!

for me also will be better to use bigger nozzle (printing big models), but I'm afraid that stringing will be worse... 

I will try the das filament I read good reviews about it.

There is a short video about my first boat, what I want to optimize and add more features for v2.

Yeah you are right I also try it, but if I shell it separately another 2mm wall will be there from main body. But yeah it is also a solution to fix the stringing and than will be no problem the infill at sprayers.
