@karlzhao314: How dare you compare that imperialist capitalistic inferior filament with our superior socialistic filament! We are now printing a bed in Siberia with your name on it! And, whouhaha! it will be made by PLA! That will teach you!

i use Autodesk Fusion360, this is a great, powerful software for beginners and experts. All of my CAD is done with this software. It works on PC and Mac, and very affordable.

Oh also - FDM printers can print in any orientation. I’ve tried it as I thought it might improve overhangs but alas it seems to make no difference. Ultimaker at makerfaire’s and such used to hang a printer upside down by a rope sometimes while it was printing.

Chris, you should have no changes made to the x/y/z steps per millimeter values - those are/should be constant. If you are using GT2 belts for x/y and 16-tooth with 1/16 microstepping your steps/mm are 100 ( read up RepRap Calculator - Original Prusa 3D Printers ). If you are printing a circle patt…

Are you printing in PLA? If yes, then you probably need to add an extra fan to cool your model as it prints. I’m having the same problem and I am adding a fan TONIGHT. I printed this to add to my 4S.
