Skeinforge Comb
From DEMOZENDIUM
Comb is a craft tool to comb the extrusion hair of a gcode file.
Comb bends the extruder travel paths around holes in the slices, to avoid stringers. It moves the extruder to the inside of perimeters before turning the extruder on so any start up ooze will be inside the shape.
Operation
The default 'Activate Comb' checkbox is off.
Here you see Comb at work, left you see many stringers in the round hole with Comb turned off, on the right you see no stringers in the round hole with Comb turned on.
Settings
Running Jump Space
Default: 2 mm
Defines the running jump space that is added before going from one island to another. If the running jump space is greater than zero, the departure from the island will also be brought closer to the arrival point on the next island so that the stringer between islands will be shorter. For an extruder with acceleration code, an extra space before leaving the island means that it will be going at high speed as it exits the island, which means the stringer between islands will be thinner.
