I used PrusaSlicer for a while when I had Prusa Printers, it's a great slicer as well. Click here to check out my course - Slicer Secrets Unlocked!

OrcaSlicer is an opensource slicer and what Bambu Studio used to design their slicer, it's a great option for any printer. Click here to check out my course - Slicer Secrets Unlocked!

Blender is an amazing CAD software! It is open source and always FREE! I use it to design texture rollers. You can learn to do the same by checking out my Texture Rollers Made Easy course here!

I used Cura Slicer for a while when I had Ender printers, it's a great slicer and usually the most well known. It is my least favorite of the 4 I have listed here though. Click here to check out my course - Slicer Secrets Unlocked!
