| + | For best results, it is recommended to print all parts (except the vertical adapter) using the pre-configured layer height of 0.10 mm, as set in the provided slicer profile. While it is technically possible to increase the layer height to 0.20 mm manually, this is not recommended, | ||

| Most parts can be printed without supports, but a small number of components do require supports due to their geometry. Please refer to the parts table, where it is clearly indicated in the last column whether supports are required for a specific part. | Most parts can be printed without supports, but a small number of components do require supports due to their geometry.

| To make printing easier, a ready-to-use print profile is provided. You can open it directly from MakerWorld by clicking “Open in Bambu Studio”. The print file is already configured, so you can simply load it and start printing. | To make printing easier, a ready-to-use print profile is provided.

| - | Important: In the provided print profile, supports are disabled by default, since the majority of parts do not require them. If a part requires supports according to the parts table, you need to enable supports manually in the slicer settings on the left side, as shown in the image. Supports should only be enabled for the specific parts that require them. | + | **Important: In the provided print profile, supports are disabled by default, since the majority of parts do not require them.
