What size should my towers / gantries be relative to the foam block?

asked by arcadist · 2025-08-23
Tower height = max foam height + 50mm of clearance. Tower spacing (the Z dimension in machine coords) = max foam width + 30mm of clearance on each side.

Don't oversize too much — bigger spacing means a longer wire, which sags more in the middle (gravity bow), which means worse cut quality on tall blocks. 500x500x500 is a good general-purpose size; 800x600x300 is great for wings.
