@Alac Hansen, we (I'm one of the Cura devs) are compensated regular wages for a software developer in the Netherlands. Which isn't exorbitant but fair compensation. But we are also all open-source fanboys who are makers and DIYers. It is not uncommon that we decide to make contributions to Cura (or other open-source projects) just because we care for that project, and we want to add specific functionality to make our own life better.

And stronger, did I mention stronger? A lot stronger? I've honestly been surprised, it felt like having the cake, AND the cake not being a lie, AND then getting to eat it as well...

Unrelated, but this comment made me think of a printbed that would basically be like the surface of an airhockey table. The slicer would know the location of the air vents and build tree support on it such that air can flow through, also it would be a nozzle shape at the end to create pressure. The airflow can then be used to cure the plastic faster, reducing the need for support or even somewhat supporting the part with air. The airbed doesn't have to be on when the print starts and the pressure doesn't shouldn't be very high or you would need individual control over which holes emit air or make sure the plastic adheres strongly enough so that the print doesn't come off, when holes are being blocked by the print

I got your point of usefulness with the rectangular component example early in the video where the supports don't touch the bottom of the part, so this may be pedantic, but of course you would (almost) never print that part in the orientation shown. Flip it 45 degrees and it would require no support at all. As an aside, those must have been the cheapest pair of wire snips on the planet! Just about any pair of snips that didn't come free with a 3D printer will have zero issue with cutting anything you can print from here to eternity. You are certainly right that they're not the optimal tool for working directly with the support/part mating surface, but they're a good tool for other support snipping scenarios. I hope that didn't come off overly negative, but it tends to be in the details in manufacturing and fabrication that can take our potential from good to great, so just details such as consistent mention of orientation discipline may be helpful for those early in their journey. You're making good content and I look forward to seeing everything grow. Best to you and yours in the coming year.

Edit, right now I am submiting a bug report, where I noticed that the Slice process is taking longer to produce the Gcode, but also there are some parameters that even after 1 hour it doesn't produce a Gcode. Specifically using a 0.4 nozzle and reducing the Tree Tip Diameter to 0.4 from the 0.8 default Value

I have to wonder if the new Bambu Studio "slim tree" option is based on this, and if so to what degree. I think somewhere in the notes for the newest beta of their slicer they mentioned- "we learned the initial idea and code of tree support came from Cura a few months ago and we are grateful for that" They said a few months ago, which is before the release of the Cura beta of course, but they could very well be developing off the same source

as far as I saw in their code base, they based it from our (Cura) old tree support

I was using these exact cutters to flush cut a piece of wire the other day and the tip snapped off just as shown in the video. The piece literally hit less than one inch below my eye and went all the way to the bone below my right eyeball.

Yeah, I found out the hard way about those clippers. Thought they were great up until the point where it became a dangerous projectile.
