Finally got around to printing a chest plate as one solid piece instead of splitting it into sections, and honestly the first 80 percent looks incredible. The texture came out clean and the tree detail along the front is crisp. Problem is near the top corner, one side starts to lean and droop a little as the layers go up. Is this just becuase the print is tall and top-heavy on the plate, or am I asking too much of a single piece? I could split it in the slicer and glue it later, but I realy want that seamless look.
Would orientation help, like printing it tilted back against the bed? Curious what worked for anyone who's done big flat armor pieces before.
