Hi 3D printing geniuses… any idea what the 2nd structure to the right hand side of the 20mm calibration box is?

Makerware 3.9.

I was advised to go back to makerware 2.4. But the issue I have with 2.4 is that the “auto layout all” command doesnt work with larger parts therefore I can’t use it to print. I can use the move command to move the part to the correct x/z axis. But Cant seem to move the part on the Z axis in makerware 2.4. Has anyone else had this issue?

Hi chaps, just in case no one was aware, the second structure that has been printed next to the calibration cube is called “purge walls” - It is a feature of Makerbot Desktop 3.9 for cleaning the extruder heads in between layers.

I’m surprised no one knew that! It can’t be a useful feature!
