Watch Your Underhang
The model shown here has a severe chin
un-
derhang
. Try to minimize this when creating
your scan. The back of the head where the hat
juts out also has a severe overhang. We used
external support material to help print the hat
back. The support material did not build under
the brim and chin, but it still printed pretty
well!

Scan reoriented
Slice off the jagged bits
Use the Cuts tools on the right of the
screen to cut a flat bottom for the model.
Drag the Z slider so the bottom of the
blue cut line is cutting off the scan's jag-
ged edges. Click the Execute Cut button,
then click Cut.
You can then click on the part of the cut
model that you want to remove. The se-
lected part will turn green, as shown in
Figure 6-17
