Best software for cutting large models apart
-
So the R1+ has a large print area, but I have a 3d model that may be too large for it. How can I best cut it up so I can print it up in pieces and then assemble it together? Thanks.

Do you have an STL file?

Yes.

The Quick and Kludgey way
- Use bottom clipping to slice off the bottom half of the model, and print it
- Turn the model upside down
- Use bottom clipping again to slice off the other half, then print it.
The Proper but Difficult way
Learn to use Blender.
