Things to consider

  • Low-contrast photos produce a less readable relief.
  • Check layer settings and orientation in your slicer.
  • Very high resolution increases build time and file size.

How source data is processed

Your photo is used to build the model and is not published. Saving or server features may send data to Maker services.
