You know, if you set your Top Z Height in your support settings, to .26. It will make life so much easier. You will not have to suit up to remove supports.

half of the items you recommend are completely useless

Heres an additional way that works well...Get a small desktop electric heater. point it facing across your work surface and at the model. Turn the model in front of it and at the same time take needle nose pliers to bend and remove the supports. Just make sure to keep the model moving

I got my 3D Printer (Elegoo Neptune 3 pro) a little over 6 months ago and am pretty much obsessed with 3D printing at this point. When I first got my printer I pretty much binge watched every KZread video I could find on how to do it properly and just went for it. And yours were probably the first ones I watched and they were the beginning of my education on 3D printing. And now a little over six months later, although I'm of course nowhere even close to being an expert and am still learning daily (especially now that I'm using CAD more and more to create my own designs,) thanks to you and other like you, I feel at least somewhat more proficient at least. The rest will come with experience, learning through my successes and my possibly even more important through my failures. So, I just want to say thank you for being a part of me finding and putting me on the road to learning my new passion and love of 3D printing. Keep up the great work.

You get my subscribe for your fine work, but you get my love for your magnificent mustache.

I thought this was going to be about setting

I use scrapper or cloth gloves

Don't forget to watch his CURA video on printing better supports that make it easier to remove! Lifesaver!

Will there be an updated support settings video? And which slicer has the best results, for easy to remove supports?

Never considered using a soldering iron or water! Always learning something new from you!

These tips are great! Safety, safety, safety, totally agree. I've never heard the soldering gun trick, that's brilliant! Thanks for always sharing your knowledge with us. -Courtney

Great tips, but the best tip I've ever tried was changing the support interface spacing to something small between .08 and .16 and the supports come off really easy

Thanks Chris for another great video!

Subscribed, your content is really clean and super helpful for people joining the hobby.

Amazing video! Can you also do an updated video for support setting recommendations?

Good video for people new to it especially. I've done several konshu statues and that was way too much support lol.

I too was hoping for some settings and type of plastic you are using. Especially for the more delicate ones. Possibly layer height and nozzle size. Good 👍 video a couple of ideas I have not tried.

Great video thank you!

Finally the video I have been waiting for! Thanks a ton for making this. Do you make any adjustments to bottom and top Z distance on the slicer? One issue I have is when I have supports that are connected at both ends to the model the bottom of the support fuses to the model and causes gnarly scarring.

Love the options. My only question especially with the hot water have you tried like PVA support material that dissolves in hot water?
