Cura 4.12 "lightning" infill. Poor name, but likely really cool for low stress parts.

I just saw an interesting youtube video about using "lightning" infill in the new version of Cura.


Basically it prints vaulted supports that allow you to print very low density hollow objects that have stuff like flat top surfaces that would likely fail.

The Cura website has a nice animation on how it works. It looks like mold growing in a petri dish (in a good way). Very cool!
