Claim 11:
12. A method of configuring an additive fabrication device to remove debris from a liquid photopolymer in the additive fabrication device, the additive fabrication device comprising a container and a build platform and configured to form layers of solid material on the build platform by photocuring liquid photopolymer in the container, the method comprising:
generating, using at least one processor, instructions that, when executed by the additive fabrication device, cause the additive fabrication device to:
form a mesh of solid material adhered to an interior surface of the container by directing actinic radiation to the liquid photopolymer in the container, wherein the mesh of solid material is formed from a single layer of material and includes one or more features configured to assist in removal of the mesh of solid material from the container subsequent to fabrication of the mesh of solid material.
