How are hole count and spacing calculated?
The tool calculates rows and columns from size, hole size, spacing, and border, limiting excessive counts.

The tool calculates rows and columns from size, hole size, spacing, and border, limiting excessive counts.
Same hole size keeps every hole equal and widens the border. Fixed border keeps the border width and may narrow edge holes.
Hole width or length is clamped to the inner area.
Useful for vents, filters, divider panels, and decorative grids. Increase thickness for load-bearing use.
For FDM, keep at least 0.8–1 mm between holes. SLA can be thinner. Too little spacing weakens the plate.
Yes. The model is a single solid with its base at Z=0 in millimeters and can be imported directly into a slicer.
