Review wall and overhang checks.
Export and inspect the model in your slicer.

Requirements and limitations

Wall measurements and printing time are sampled estimates. Global self-intersection testing, cloud project sync and SVG relief import are not implemented. Physical fit, stability and water retention require testing. Commercial use of MiniForge tools requires an active DIAMOND membership on Patreon. Third-party artwork and icon licenses still apply; membership does not grant rights to someone else’s artwork. Read the Terms of Use before selling prints.

Frequently asked questions

Does the surface pattern appear in exports?

Yes. Patterns, text and images displace actual mesh vertices. Material finishes and lighting only affect the preview.

How does Spiral Vase Mode work?

The preview shows an open nozzle-width shell. The export is a closed solid outer body; enable spiral vase mode and zero top layers in your slicer.
