About this generator
Each block is printed at a different temperature: pick the one with the best surface, overhang and bridge.

- In your slicer, change the temperature at the start of each block (1 mm base + block height × n).
- Compare blocks and pick the best.
Printing tips

Frequently asked questions
Where do I change the temperature?
The tower has a 1 mm base, then one block per temperature, hottest at the bottom. Change the temperature at 1 mm plus a multiple of the block height. OrcaSlicer and PrusaSlicer let you add these changes per height.
How do I pick the best temperature?
Choose the block with clean overhangs, a straight bridge and the least stringing.
