UPDATE: How to print Glass with ORCA .3mf by Rygar1432 | Download free STL model | Printables.com How to print GLASS! The first thing to understand is a very slow speed is necessary, so patience is a must. The key is three different factors. 20mm/s speed 0.1000mm layer height No top or bottom layers, along with one single direction for infill By following the three keys above you can create a very translucent print. Several factors in positioning the printed object and direction the filament is laid down will give vearing results. The Best filament to use believe it or not is: OVERTURE CLEAR PETG. It even beat out Formfutura HD Glass.
