3D Printing Stewy

Here are the settings  I use for 3D Printing Stewy. I use Orca slicer with the default settings other than the ones I've listed below.

​

I encourage you to play around with these settings and material choices to find ways for improving Stewy. If you do print your own please let me know in the forum here!
