Report Thing as Inappropriate

Description

Cannot generate correct gcode for this stl file with sf35.
I tried different settings but there is always a problem, either with an incomplete layer or printing in the air. These problems are reproducible: you can see that the gcode is wrong when using a tool such as Pleasant3D.
When I accidentally made the hole in the object too large (first attempt) there was no problem. When I lay the object flat on the base for printing (rotate in repG) there is no problem but the object then lacks strenght.
When I remove the hole (in Sketchup) and print the object without hole there is no problem either...

Instructions

Try generating gcode that works for this, then print on Makerbot ToM or other 3D printer.

Update: rotate the object 180 degrees (around z-axis) and then it prints fine. Clearly a bug in skeinforge as this rotation should have no influence.
