Custom G-Code for 3D Printing: What Slicers Can’t Do (Part 1)

Part 1 of my intro to custom g-code for 3D printing, and how I make thick, chunky extrusion layer lines.

Typical slicers aren’t built to do this, so I write the toolpath myself using tools like Blender and Rhino with Grasshopper, plus a few online options.

It’s not as simple as it sounds. You have to understand your settings and your machine to dial everything in.

It’s a big topic, so tell me what you’d like to see in Part 2 in the comments.
