Brim
The Brim is a single layer around the base of your print to improve adhesion to the build
platform.
Brim Line Amount - This value specifies the number of lines to print around the outside
of your object. The more lines used, the better the object will adhere to the build
platform.
Raft
The Raft is a platform built underneath your object to help adhesion and to prevent
warping. This will print a support structure followed by a platform upon which your model
will be printed. The bottom surface of your object will not be as clean or even when using
this option. Raft is typically not recommended.
Extra Margin (mm) - This value determines the distance around your object to build the
raft.
Line Spacing (mm) - This value determines the spacing between the support lines when
creating the raft. A small value will improve strength, but will use more material.
Base Thickness (mm) - This value determines the thickness of the raft.
Base Line Width (mm) - This determines the width of the support lines used when
creating the raft and determines how well the surface layers of the raft print.
Interface Thickness (mm) - This value determines the thickness of the surface layers
that are built on the supports.
Interface Line Width (mm) - This determines the width of the surface layers on the raft.
In general, you can set this to your nozzle size as print quality on the raft is no
important.
Airgap - This value determines the distance between the raft and your print. A larger
distance will make it easier to remove the raft, but will reduce the quality of the
bottom of your print.
First Layer Airgap - This value determines the gap between the raft and the first layer.
