In this video we show off our Thing o Matic with the MK6 Plastruder and with the platform assembled as "Heated Build Platform" (not "Automated Build platform").
By removing the belt and ejection mechanism of the Automated Build platform and retaining heated build surface, you get some extras centimeters in build height.
The Video also shows the object being printed with the "Support Material" option enabled (see for example the "pillars" in the central of the gothic arches). Support plastic is deposited in such a way that it helps support overhanging parts of the build and can easily be removed once the Build is finished.
