Added detailed page on using the Ultimaker Series printers
Good catch! Looking at the kramdown documentation, it looks like not. Anything even vaguely HTML can throw Jekyll for a loop.
On a positive note, it looks like Jekyll now supports changing backends. But, we'll have to look into how we do that within Github Page's limitations. -------- Original Message -------- On Dec 15, 2022, 15:19, Nevin Valsaraj wrote:

The printers are: +- 2 x Ultimaker 3 (no longer manufactured by Ultimaker) +- 2 x Ultimaker S3 + + +## Software +The Ultimaker Series of printers uses the Ultimaker Cura software to slice STL files for printing. When setting up a print, it is important to crosscheck your print settings with the printer you have on hand. This is expanded on below. + + +## Setting up a print +Using your favorite CAD Sofware (i.e. Solidworks), prepare an STL file of your model for printing. Open up CURA, and use the folder icon in the top left of your window (Circle 1) to select the STL file(s) you have prepared. + +Using the options on the left side of the screen (Circle 2), move your piece(s) around. Using these controls, you can change the orientaiton of the part, as well as its location on the build plate. Make sure that part is oriented to minimize overhangs, and if you have multiple pieces, that the pieces are not too close to each other. + +
