hey I am having trouble getting the net into the rim without breaking the rim

Hi, I'm sorry you're having issues. It was designed to just snap into place. If the filament is breaking you may need to dry it, print with a higher temp, or try a different filament, Basic pla and pla+ are a bit stronger than matte.

I have tried printing the net several times and pieces of it are moving around the build plate and causing spaghetti. Any recommendations? Thank you

I'm sorry to hear you are having issues with it. I do have some recommendations. Start by making sure your build plate is washed with warm water and dish soap and I would also suggest adding a thin layer of glue to a PEI plate to help with the adhesion. Those settings both usually fix this issue. sometimes if you're still having issues you can also slow the print and raise the plate temp 5-10°

What type of screw do you recommend?

Any M3.5 x 8 mm screw should work.
