What is the best support builder to use for Cura Moai version?

Right now I use CW to build supports and then export file to Cura for slicing.

Thanks

Bobby

P.S. Trying to get all setup before my Moai arrives :-)

I never liked CW for building supports, Meshmixer is my goto

I second the Meshmixer recommendation. It is amazingly powerful and is even my goto for FDM supports on certain models.

Meshmixer can also do a lot more than just supports. It can help you repair models, adjust them, fix intersection shells, etc. Definitely worth learning!

Meshmixer has a great hollow function to make printing those large resin prints easier!

Right now we recommend Meshmixer. It is very powerful and requires more hands on. B9creator is also popular with testers. Some of those prints with very few support are made by B9Creator
