Hey all,
first post and trying to solve an annoying phenomenon.
I've been making my models in CAD, sending them to Cura 4 and the slicer is under-sizing my vertical wall thicknesses. I draw a 2 mm wall, Cura draws them thinner. I'm guessing it has to do with the nozzle diameter multiplier (.4 mm) and maybe some settings somewhere. At .4 mm it specifies a wall thickness of .8 mm, and I guess multiples thereof. If that is the case, what can I do to reliably work at half mm width values eg. 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2 and so-on?
Would a .5 mm nozzle work better for this or am I barking up the wrong tree? I'm making functional engineering models so the walls, ribs, pillars, screw hole walls need to be the specified thickness or it ends up useless. I tried 'thin walls' to see if that helped, not so much. If anyone has any advice I'd be very grateful.
Cheers
