How do the Cura support settings even work?! When do I need to add supports to my 3D prints? How can I tell what my support overhang angle is?

In this video, I'll answer the above questions and more as we start the the first step to understanding how supports work. Supports in Cura can be frustrating and confusing at times. Especially when you're not quite sure what setting to change and how it will affect the print. Since this is such a loaded topic I’m going to break this into a few videos and talk all things 3D print supports.

This particular video will help you understand the first thing you need to know before you even add supports - how to figure out how much of an angle your printer can print before needing supports.

So the first step is to print an overhang test to see what our magic number is. You can download the overhang test here on Thingiverse

Once we know our number we then know what our support overhang angle is.
