**(!)** Print with the settings below. A small inaccuracy can lead to a failed print when printing trees and plants with overhangs. So most importantly - print with low speeds (but not too low), including travel, and minimize warping on overhangs, so keep cold air away from the print. Keep bed temp a little higher for some material softness if the trees have trunks, so it can bend a little without breaking. Use 0% infill and no supports.
**(!)** Changing scale not recommended
**(!)** Tested only on Core-XY printers (bedslingers not recommended)
