special considerations bridge model in cad general orientation & support information hide the platform use toggle platform (or press b ) to hide the platform before orienting parts this will make it easier to see overhangs and place supports use fence tool to create supports fence tool supports are manually placed by the user and are best suited on linear overhangs or smaller areas fences provide

overhangs free of overhangs 4\ refine orientation to minimize overhangs minimize overhangs on other crown surfaces the margin and interface of each crown should now be free of overhangs the remaining surfaces should have a minimal amount of overhangs note margins and interfaces that have overhangs will require supports these supports affect fit and will require finishing to ensure proper seating
