    small parts

    How do you get small parts to stick to the platform?
    The keep coming loose half way through. I think I need a bigger raft.

    Try using print stamps or a brim instead of the raft. easy cleanup, smooth bottom texture.

    for ABS my best results have come from notebook paper coated with Elmers ProBond adhesive. When its correct the first layer will look like its drawn by a pencil. here is a pic of some small parts held down that way
