61 topics: slicer and CAM software settings: theory, equations, troubleshooting

Every setting here carries what the slicer interface leaves out: what the number does, what it depends on, and what breaks when you move it. The equations are given rather than implied.

The defects these settings cause live in the defect catalogue, and the design rules in DFAM.
