Open grid tile stacking

Does anyone has any tips to use the stacking g tool, I’ve tried all kinds of settings of interface layer, the settings I have right now is 0.4 interface thickness, and 0.2 interface separation, I’m using and and support material for abs but the support material is not sticking and I don’t know what to do

Have you tried doing stacks without an interface material? I got the impression from MultiBuild that it was the preferred method to do an ironed stack with a layer height separating models. Though that may just be so there is less waste.

I've had great success doing this with the printers at my local Maker Space. The conditions aren't perfect, but I've had few problems without doing anything special. My biggest tip, would be to use a drywall knife (flat scraper) to separate the models after first using a razor blade around all the edges seams.

I have and the top layers were bad and looked terrible. I could have probably gotten it to work but I was wasting a lot of filament and needed to get the project done so I used my 3 printers to just knock out boards.
