Lithophane Helper 100mm

thingiverse

An attempt to mitigate layer noise/artifacts that may arise from lithophanes flexing while printing vertically. Also, support provided to prevent failed prints. Helpers are 100mm tall by default. Scale on the Z axis to match your lithophane (i.e., for a 130mm tall litho, scale Z by 130% or 1.30). Avoid scaling on X or Y unless you really want thicker and longer tabs and legs. Place two helpers at either end of the litho, just touching each edge of the litho model. The tabs should make contact with the edge of the model. Helpers can be cut away after print completion.
