So i had did the normal changeable grip hoffman lower but crack sooner then i’d like, seen what people said and it was to switch to the one with built in grip with that being the reason mine cracked where it did. So for 1 i couldn’t figure out how to do the support enforcers so ended up doing my own, not happy with them especially with one breaking during print, if anyone knows how to and can help me with that would mean a lot. and 2 does this print look good to go, i feel like looks great everywhere besides the 2 spots show like under the trigger hole, it also came out a bit stringy which normally don’t happen so kinda looks messy with me not getting it all out yet but either way let me know any thoughts or help y’all got, thank you!

Looks great man. Support surfaces could maybe be dialed in a touch better, and your stringing definitely points to a retraction or drying issue, but the part looks pretty solid.

Thank you and yea the hoffman lower which don’t have built in grip had pre build supports so definitely was cleaning on the floating pieces, just didn’t understand the support enforcers as dumb as it sounds but if it looks good enough to other then imma go ahead and run it!
