3D Printer Babbling 

Overhangs and undercuts are the bane of casting and 3D prints alike: you can't print on a surface that isn't there. There are tricks, however. Bridges can span short distances. You can model or autogenerate supports that break away when your print is done. Or, if you choose the angles and slopes of your curves really well, and get the temperature just right, sometimes you get lucky.
