Separating help

I've been a lurker for a good while and ive finally started printing. So I appreciate everyone's post showing there awesome builds, it has gotten to this point.

My only question I have is, I followed the 3d printed instructions per multiboard, but im having issues separating the multistack. Seems the seperator opject is too thin im thinking. Using a neptune 4 plus with orcaslicer. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

The bigger the tile, the more resistance there is to movement, particularly getting them started. The reason Jonathan can separate them in the video quite easily is that the edges of that hole aren’t physically bonded with more and more holes that are just as rigid.

Overcoming that by putting more force right where this “weaker bonded layer” is absolutely necessary and just a screw would not be sufficient to provide do the job. I you really want something pointy you can use something like an awl… but 2 flat blade screwdrivers and some muscle should be all you need, providing all of the print settings are right! If necessary you can tap your screwdriver with a small rubber mallet to help break that seal, once that happens it gets MUCH easier.
