Hull wall thickness?

[rwtdiver]

I have a question?

I have a project were the STL files are 100% in size. Now I increased the size of the files to get a larger project, but in doing so the actual wall thickness increased as well. This increase in wall thickness is way to thick and heavy. I have never changed the wall thickness before so now I am not sure where to go in my Edit Processing (Dremel Digilab 40 printer) to decrease the wall thickness!?

Almost 20 years of 3D printing and I have never come across wall thickness issues before (Embarrassing to say the least)

99.9% of my sub builds, the wall thickness has been at 2.50mm This project has wall thickness at 5.00mm! Way to thick! I need to reduce it down to 2.50 or 3.00mm at the most!

Could someone guide me in this process please? Thank you very much!

Yikes... I tend to go thicker myself, but if it's working for you guys..

I go at least 3mm on larger prints.

2mm - 2.49 mm or 5-6 perimeters with a 0.4 nozzle for sub 36” and up works well for me. .

My 38" to 44" boats where all done at 2.50mm thick.

My 93" long Columbia hull is about 3.5mm thick just as a reference.

How THICK are you printing PLA hulls for the larger (6') models?

Sorry guys...autouncorrect got me....

Thanks
