So off the back of the last attempt I decided to print fewer components at the same time. I lowered teh layer thickness back to 0.2mm and played around with print speed. I thought that if I slowed down the print speed, especially when travelling between components, I could minimise the errors as well as reducing the snail trails between the components. While I succeeded in reducing the errors, the snail trails were still there. This wasn't an issue though as they were easily removed with a craft knife.
One of the things I was trying to experiment with in this trial was the triangular patterns on the surface. I had spent a lot of time in SketchUp modelling the patterns of the triangles, however I noticed that when printed it was only the larger ones that actually showed on the surface.
VERDICT: SUCCESS
