Fused deposition modeling based 3D‐printing is becoming increasingly popular due to it's low‐cost and simple operation and maintenance. While it produces rugged prints made from a wide range of materials, it suffers from an inherent printing limitation where it cannot produce overhanging surfaces of non‐trivial size. This limitation can be handled by constructing temporary support‐structures, however this solution involves additional material costs, longer print time, and often a fair amount of labor in removing it.
