| - | It would probably save time and hassle if the platform was fully prepared for printing, on top and underneath, //before// the platform is added to the machine. However, nobody has actually done this, //and// fully documented it on this wiki. Most of the rest of the build is mechanically obvious, compared to the thermal complications of the heated platform. There is some disagreement as to the best methods. For these reasons, the "jit's build" documentation largely skips over the preparation of the heated platform, at least so far. | + | It will save time and hassle if the platform is fully prepared for printing, on top and underneath, //before// the platform is added to the machine.
