Filament is just PLA. Definitely sounds like it's autobrim so I'll look for that setting. It was definitely not needed on some of the prints I did over the weekend. Thanks again guys for the help.

Best solution I've used to remove prints from the bed is take the bed off and put it in the freezer for 10 minutes. Everything pops off easy at that point. I use a glass bed for what it's worth

My issue isn't getting the part off of the print bed, it's getting these extra parts (brim and other supports) off of the printed part after the print is finished.

oooh sorry. I don't use a brim. generally my supports break off very easily, occasionally I have to use a tool to access them. Perhaps try a different shape or density of support?

2 is 1, 1 is none. Right?

Hahaha! My son coming two months early blew the remodel out of the water. And my wife has been understanding. I have gotten a surprising amount done but I still lack the bathroom remodel lol. That said I did struggle explaining this one to the Mrs.

In your slicer, try playing with the support distance and density settings, by a little at a time. And see that support distance priority is set to "z overrides x/y" if you have that option.

My supports break off pretty easy for the most part. My settings are:

Support density: 10.0%
Support Line Distance: 4.0mm
Support Z distance : 0.2mm
Support X/Y distance: 0.7mm
Minimum support distance: 0.2mm

For your brim you can play with the distance a little too.

Thanks @Black Titan . I have done zero playing with settings yet. I'll try some of this when I get time to print again.

Simple line winder for a Tenkara fishing rod. Background I fished with a Tenkara rod while hiking the John Muir Trail two summers ago. We would stop at any spot that looked fishable, try a couple casts, and move on to the next spot. The rod worked great but I always had minor complaints about...

Is this big enough for 40ft of dyneema pull up rope? I've printed a couple of spool designs that didn't quite work out or pack down the way I wanted them to. Still looking for an idea for that.

What filament is that?

Some local stuff called AF (American Filament). This is PLA, but they have PLA+ as well in their “Army Green”.
