Had issued with Simplify3D slicing this. It was not flat along the ground plane and thus didn't make a skirt and tried to print it about 1 or 2 layers up. Oddly the skirt was only present around where the stem met the top of the bowl. Like it was just a fraction of a MM higher than the rest of the object. Also had a strange issue where the stem attaches to the bowl where there was space.
Ran a repair job on it then brought it into tinkerCAD. Shaved about .2mm off of the top of the bowl so that it would default to flat against the bed when I loaded the STL. Reloaded into S3D and made 4 copies for my feeders. Printed skirt around the 4 moats and print is going well now. Just remixing in case any S3D users out there are having trouble with this. Printing at .3mm now for speed, doesn't have to look great up close.
So many dead ants in the hummingbird feeders right now and I had to get it done!
