Build pad, solid image build, and method for building build supports

摘要

A build pad (710) for supporting a solid image build thereon in a solid imaging apparatus, said build pad (710) comprising:a) a first planar surface (750); andb) a plurality of discrete structures (715,715') extending from said first planar surface (750) defining a plurality of discontinuous second planar surfaces for supporting a solid image build on said discontinuous planar surfaces.
