Detail Decepticon!
When you had more than a couple of thousand hours of prints, runout of material in the middle of a print, don't have enough to print what you want and have to wait till can get it and a bunch of boxes of scrap material for bad prints or support, you will see that time is not the main issue, as the machine works alone, you will learn to design what you want with 3D fdm machine in mind.Thanks a million, I may take you up on that. Material is minimal but print time is insane
If you want to save time you have to aboid support, travel moves, heavy infill and unnesesary quality (low layers), you can see in the slicer that those are the most time consuming opperations.
This is how I made mine, you can use 45 degrees (as i did) if your machine is well calibrated and with 0.28 or 0.32 layer high
