At about 8 minutes in the video Porter mentions he wants the items to be placed close for faster printing (I assumed because of the back and forth from the nozzle), but not too close as to not cause problems. What kind of problems are we trying to avoid, and is there a rule of thumb for this distance between parts?
As for the orientation, he chose to go vertical instead of horizontal. Is it also because of the back and forth of the nozzle, for speed? Or a smaller first layer is more important to avoid any adhesion issues?
If it's for speed, I wonder when is the break-even point... while there will be less nozzle movement, I feel like there are a lot more layers. 🤔
Lastly, question on filling out the bed space. Let's say you already did smaller test prints and settled on the joints sizes and all of that. Ready to go for a higher resolution, final print. would you still print the pieces separately, or would you try to fill out the printing bed space? Like with cutting layouts in woodworking.
Would that be more efficient, or not much of a difference after all? What's the usual workflow for that?
Questions are piling up. Maybe we can ask Amber to see if he can contact Porter and say we've got an avid 3D printress eager to 3d print so he can come and impart all his wisdom around so the world has less resin in it and 3D printing technology can advance and land us on the moon once again.
I'm still about halfway through watching the Make It course... there might be more questions coming, so I'm ok to wait a bit before using the red telephone 
dostovel. Thank you! I'll try to be wrapped up tonight.
