I am printing a cylinder for a pistol (for cosplay). The bottom, print wise, of the cylinder has a ridge running around it. In this section, the % infill works fine- see picture, base layers on the right. Once the printer gets up a few layers and the OD of the piece gets a little smaller again, slicer is turning to solid infill for the rest of the piece- everything between the chambers and the OD is solid, instead of being the %; again, see picture, piece on the left. Does anyone have an idea why this might be, and where I might find a setting I have missed? Or is this unavoidable?

Any area below this threshold (expressed in square millimeters) will be solid infilled. It could be this is what is happening to you.]]> jbernardis Slic3r Fri, 27 Mar 2015 22:24:39 -0400 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?263,489466,489466#msg-489466 https://reprap.org/forum/read.php?263,489466,489466#msg-489466 Does anyone have an idea why this might be, and where I might find a setting I have missed?
