6 | ** Customizing |
7 | ||
8 | The built-in customizer in openscad can be used to easily tweak | |
9 | settings. A few presets that I used are included. | |

11 | ** Print orientation | |
12 | ||
13 | Use Cura or Slic3r "align to face" feature to lay the mouth of the | |
14 | horn on the print bed. | |

16 | ** Print Settings | |

18 | Intended to be printed hollow: | |
19 | ||
20 | - 0 bottom layers | |
21 | - 0 top layers | |
22 | - 0% infill | |
23 | - 0.2mm or lower layer height | |
24 | ||
25 | Did not have great luck with vase mode @ 0.2mm layer height (overhang | |
26 | near end of horn was too great and there were gaps), but might be | |
27 | worth a shot at 0.1mm. | |

29 | *** PETG | |
30 | ||
31 | Using a prusa mini with a 0.4mm nozzle @ 0.2mm layer height, I needed | |
32 | six perimeters to make the horn watertight. Also needed to make the | |
33 | final 10-15mm of the horn solid. | |
