Lookin good! Are you slicing with Arachne or Classic? How many perimeters/walls are you using? Just trying to figure out why your letters aren’t filled in all the way. ---

If you aren’t already, I’d select Arachne in Prusa Slicer. It uses variable line width to fill gaps. ---

I had been playing ball and cup with this printed unresponsive just like you posted on Insta and I figured might as well print a dedicated device. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/1/6/2/162dbb580d59a911c1c44130ff9abee4bc33e061.jpeg) ---

Well that’s nice to inspire. Yeah what he had seen sharing is one of my Craters - the modern cup and ball. ![Screenshot_20240508_190758](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/yoyoexpert1/original/4X/5/4/2/542929415beb4fe9b5385d16157322eb76e1928c.jpeg) I wanted a skill toy that all ages and skills could enjoy so I modernized the classic to have more skill toy potential. Here is a playlist of what I have done with it.

it must be something being done in CAD thats not coming out right in the slicer. it seems to consistent to be a machine calibration issue and i can’t think of a slicer setting that would be doing that. my letters dont usually come out like that ---

Here’s what it looks like when I printed it. No gaps in the letters. Same CAD file. I think it’s definitely slicer related.
