TinkerCAD Tutorials - Alignment Pegs - Save support and join models after printing

In this video, I show you how you can use the free online CAD program 'TinkerCAD' to separate your 3D model and add alignment pegs, ready for re-assembly after printing.
Let me know if you have any questions and I'll provide additional guidance.
Hopefully, you'll enjoy this video and put the method into practice, so you can benefit from some support-free printing in the future.

8:40 Instead of copying, pasting, and making sure they're aligned, just click Duplicate. The duplicate will automatically be in the same place as the original.

Awesome video!
Smalle tip! You can Hide the blocks with the Lightbulb icon.
And then reveal it again with big light button next to group.
Then you don't need to move do much.

[@CallumColes]

Thank you, that’s a great tip will add to the description! I don’t believe that icon was there when I first started using TinkerCAD years ago, did it come in an update?

[@jamiegoegebeur2239]

@@CallumColes Heey!
It has been there for many years, but I also only discovered it about 2 years ago.
Changed my workflow quite a bit and made some complex Parts easier to achieve.

[@CallumColes]

@@jamiegoegebeur2239 yes can imagine, it’s a great feature, very helpful in other software packages too!

Cheers :D

Just split it down the middle & lay both halves flat. Then after printing is done you can super glue them back together.

[@kingty8010]

Yeah but this way is easier so you can align it properly

Trying to watch while someone moves quickly back and forth is truly a torment.
