Also the mos effective thing that i have found for removing parts from the build platform is a cheap tape measure just unroll it and the metal is thin enough that it'll separate the part from the platform quite easily raft or no raft.

We use a little paint scraper type tool to remove ours. Not even sure exactly what to call it, but it's a miracle worker.

I definitely agree with the no rafts philosophy. We haven't printed a single part yet that required a raft. For most things they're just a waste of material and time (that is assuming you've nailed removing parts from the build platform).
