I am using MOI for 3D printing. Do I have to union all of my designs or can I leave them as separate parts flush up against each other?

Hey guys,

So when I said that I had that problem with slicing it was in V2 and not in V3. The results that I got are attached.

So after doing the union in V3, I was able to print it and the finished results of that are also attached!

In regards to your answer Shayne, that looks like an awesome solution and would have and will be the solution I will use if I run into this in another form. I would have created a hub but I like your solution much better. With keeping the parts separate you never have problems with it treating items as separate when printed?

Thanks Mike and Shayne.

Regards,

Dane

Hi Dane, it turned out great!

I'm glad that the tune-ups in v3 were able to solve that problem.

Just thought to add that if you make use of a 3D printing service like Shapeways, intersecting parts will be auto-Booleaned, so you don't need to do that yourself first.
