Has anybody tried the Ironing option in Cura and if so Is it worth doing?

I switched over to Prusa splicer. I stopped having the headache from Cura 4.2.1. Also went back to version 4.0

I have not. I could give it a try later this week, I was going to do some comparison models anyway.

That's probably what you should do. At this point with this technology you can certainly google and see other people's results, but you just have to try it on your printer and your model.

I made a testprint for the roofs of DasTris Balkenheim-buildings.

It smoothes flat surfaces quite successfull, but they better be horizontal.

Here you see a sample of a roof for a 1:100 building ironed and in the back the same roof for 1:87 in 0.2mm without ironing.

I put up some more images on that ironing in an update for the Balkenheim-campaign:

BTW: Today is the last day of that campaign.
