TIPS! - For anyone struggling to remove these supports:
(in suggested order of what to try):

1. Try increasing the Z-top distance (try not to go to crazy with this) as this will increase the gap between the supports and the model.

2. Decrease Support "Line Width" (could be called Flow Rate) this will decrease the amount of material used to print the supports making them a bit thinner and weaker, therefore easier to remove.

3. Increase the top interface spacing (perhaps 0.4) and increase the top interface layers (perhaps 4) this will make less of the support touch the actual model and make sure your model only touches the interface layers.

4. (Advanced) Check your e-steps are tuned in - it might be worth dropping them slightly as your printer might be over extruding

This video is actual content. It is not clickbait. It is not sensational in nature. It is not garbage like the average video. It was actually something I was interested in. It was months ago since last I randomly got a solid suggestion for something I was actually interested in and where quality not product was prevalent. Thanks for a great video. You get my sub. Super interested in what you are up to.

I came to this video after trying to print a Druid mini very similar to the one you showed. It was a disaster with the autogenerated supports. Thanks for the tips, I will definitely try manually adding supports this time.

Man, I need to learn how to manually add/remove supports. Nice start here.

Wow. I learned more about printing detailed parts in the first 5 minutes of this video than what I have learned by trial and error in the last 2 months. Thanks a lot

For those who haven't looked into it, let me tell you that if you do .2mm nozzle and 0.06/0.08mm layer height and use something like PETG or PLA Support material as the support interface filament, you can get some pretty amazing results with the automatic OrcaSlicer support settings. It is a longer print time for sure, about a day with more time depending on the number of models printing, but removing the supports is insanely easy. I wouldn't do it for single models, just due to time and waste from filament swaps (many!), but if you are printing a full bed of minis, it wouldn't be too wasteful and would make it so you don't have to spend near any time cleaning them up. I used the Bambu PLA Support material that I got with my P1S Combo to test it out and have had great results!

I'm sick of the mess with resin so bought an A1 Mini and your videos are a big help. Fascinating how so many resin techniques are being applied. Keep up the good work.

Great Video, good to see FDM Miniature printing improving!

I've been watching your videos for 2 weeks, ever since I got my FDM printer, and thank goodness! D&D minis and the like is the whole reason I got the printer, and you have made it so much simpler to learn how to do everything rather than slog through the internet. Thank you sir, and keep up the work.

This is good to see

Brother! I have been printing for a few months. I wanted to learn it all myself. It was great until my job took me away for two months at a time. I followed your advice and created an absolutely perfect mini! You have saved me so much time brother. Thank you!

Thank you for working to make FDM better!!

Very helpful, first time viewer

okay, had to stop at about4:43 not only for the fact that we share a printer, and slicer, but i honestly cant thank Once in a Six Side for recommending that his audience stop here. i lurk on his vids for support and mini information and frankly i've been missing out on real FDM stuff. ive learned a lot already and i cant wait to finish the video.

Thank you as well for taking the time to make this vid aye.

I support you

Crazy helpful! Thank you so much for showing the steps - including what it looked like printed and showing you remove the supports. FDM with a 0.2 nozzle really is 'Good Enough' for so much.

Nice job!

This was pretty interesting

Thank you for the video.  Comment to feed algorithm gods.
