To remove a completed part from the plastic modeling base:

1. After removing the base from the machine, firmly flex the
modeling base back and forth with your hands to loosen
the part. For best results, flex the modeling base
perpendicular to the first layer raster direction (front-right to
back-left).
2. Pull the part off the base or use a putty knife to pry the part
completely off.
Supports are much easier to remove when the plastic
modeling base is still warm.
