Stack Layers

Repeats 2D geometry at discrete Z heights, like traditional layer-by-layer printing. Each layer is a complete closed path at a fixed Z.

Parameters

start Z (mm)
First layer Z height.
end Z (mm)
Last layer Z height.
layer height (mm)
Vertical distance between layers. Should match your printer setting.
geometry
Statement slot — closed 2D geometry to repeat at each layer.

How it works

Stack Layers draws the nested geometry at each discrete Z step. Unlike Spiral Up, each layer is a complete loop at a constant Z height. This is closer to traditional 3D printing and is required for certain geometries.
