They help prevent warping and ensure the model turns out as intended. **How I Designed This Model** 1. I opened the .xyz molecule file in Visual Molecular dynamics (VMD), where I set up the graphics to my liking. 2. Next, I rendered the .stl file from VMD. 3. To prepare the file for printing, I uploaded it to Microsoft Netfabb and made any necessary adjustments. 4. Once ready, I used the fixed .stl file with my printer. 5. Finally, I adjusted the size of the model as needed before hitting print. With these simple steps, you can create your very own cis-butane chemical model that's ready for painting or display. Happy printing!
