Next, you will have to slice the parts. That means to generate a code, representative of your 3D part which your printer will be able to understand. This action is called “slicing” because your printer prints layer by layer and the software needs to calculate the path that the printer's nozzle will follow. Make sure to use the appropriate slicer for your 3D printer, ask your teacher if you need help! Here are the settings for printing your timer: speed at 70 mm/s, 0.2mm layer height, 10% infill, temperature between 200ºC and 240ºC. Step 2: Flash your micro:bit !
