Cura

Cura is the slicer for 3D printing.

General Cura Tutorial

• See good one from https://all3dp.com/1/cura-tutorial-software-slicer-cura-3d/

Useful Functions

• Minimum layer time - for a thin point in a print, you want to slow print down to enable more cooling time. This way a small part doesn't sag on you.
• For single wall thickness - Spiralize mode is useful

Links

• Lulzbot Cura is the Lulzbot edition of Ultimaker's Cura. See Lulzbot Cura. OSE is using Lulzbot Cura because Lulzbot is a libre hardware company, while Ulimaker hardware is not open source.

• Note that Ultimaker Cura has some extra settings that may be desirable at times. See Cura Tutorial above
