Hi,

 

I wish to print J2 Arm Cover Spacer (upper and lower), i notice there is tube beside reserved for for wiring. It seems big enough and need additional support. I tried add support (Using Cura), seems use lot of filament and big support created. I foreseen after complete the printing the support will stuck inside and hard to remove from hole. Can I know what configuration you use to print the support the tube (or no print support)?

 

Support seems block the hole

something doesnt look quite right from the images you show. Im using Cura for an Anycubic i3 Mega and use the basic support placement. This picture shows the infill including supports. The long support I just pull out with some needle nose pliers and clear whatever is left with a wood dowel. I hope that helps. If anyone else has experience with an issue like this please chime in.
