What did you clean the vat with now we can’t get IPA?

Most of the resin was poured out so just used a tissue to wipe and warm soapy (fairy liquid) water again with a tissue to wipe clean now left to dry.

Thank God I had already bought about 10 large bottles beck when I first got my printer. Still have 5 left

i did keychains..

Aaron Strome nice.

I would interested in the stl for these

Ernest Sandridge Ill I saw Aaron's post and his keychains roll. Looked on thingiverse and didn't see an stl so I made these in fusion 360. I'm by no means an expert in Fusion 360 but this was a pretty simple design. A couple of circles and a couple of tangential lines, then extrude and there's a toilet paper roll.

this is the one i ended up making in the end the one i posted wouldn't print the extra paper area. but this one works.

Aaron Strome nice. Those look even better than mine. They have pleats and more texture and everything. Like I said I'm a complete new but 3D modeling so I thought I was doing pretty good to get a nice looking roll as I did haha

you did a great job. i'm still trying to learn fusion 360. i find myself spending so much time fixing models i find online i really want to learn to make them.

Aaron Strome ahh. Ya mine got a little weird at the start of the extra bit but it started after a few layers. it just kind of adds a bit of a torn corner look.

few of mine turn out like that too but thought it added to it..

Ya exactly

increase your bottom layer count (2 is too low). Also worth leveling again and checking fep tension

Great thank you what would you personally change it to?

8 should be sufficient

Zena Andreou Thanks

I agree, bump up the bottom layer count to at least 5. If after re leveling it still isn't staying on the plate, bump up bottom exposure time. I've been going as high as 120 seconds on bottom layers with this resin.

John Rudisill Thanks man will give it another go!

John Rudisill What settings do you currently use for the most detail in your prints?

Matthew Burton I have been doing .05 at 19s. I do not like this resin that much but it works. Harz labs red prints better in my opinion. I might finally give bluecast a go once this bottle is finished if I don't come across something cheaper that's worth trying.

John Rudisill Okay great if it isn't to much of a hassle could you please take a screenshot of your settings in chitubox just saves me keep wasting resin form messing up the settings! and great to hear going to give something else a go aswell after I finish this bottle

i have printed this testfile, but cant see realy a differnce between the 8 pieces. in my opinion they are all ok ? ?

Uli Sazma they shouldn't all look the same, sure you sliced it right, called it correct file name etc, some should be under exposed, if you sure you done it right, lower the cure time on the first square.

The same thing happened to me. I was told I should have bought the replacement as one part. I had tried to scrape it off but scratched the plate underneath. I ended up having a replacement part cut to size. Good luck

James Lockwood what replacment part?

That's a screen gone bad.

Is amazon a dude?

i woud prefer ebay seller

Facebook /= ebay...... but ill take a look

does it have to be elegoo resin?

asking

The red background doesn’t help, but I assume it’s yellowed? Normally a sign of over-curing or over-post-curing. What did you wash it with? I got much clearer clear prints with Monocure ResinAway than IPA wash.

Ashley Cobb yeah its yellowed quite a lot. Washed in IPA. I was thinking maybe 4 minutes was too long but the base is solid so thought it may need the extra time. I'm assuming no miracle varnish will bring this back?!

Lee Rogers anything you do to it short of painting it will only make it worse... sorry ?

Ashley Cobb no worries, thanks, all a learning curve!

I’ve been through a 5L bottle of clear resin so yeah, many trays of resin dumped out... ha

Put it in hydrogen peroxide then set it in your uv curing box or whatever. Doing take out the yellow. Make sure model is completely covers in the liquid

Ed Horn really? That’s awesome, will have to try it.

Do you know what concentration of h2o2?

It's just about the resin. Cheaper components, especially photoinitiators yellow, better quality resins are designed not to

Ed Horn ok, will give it a try, cheers ?

Stefan Giudici is this a cheap resin though? Very well reviewed in amazon and no difference in cost to others?

Lee Rogers I don't mean cheap so much in the cost you'll pay, as they'll charge whatever people will pay, but cheaply made, the trade off is better cure times with these. Monocure clear for instance is pretty long cure time for a clear resin, but it doesn't yellow at all. But yeah this is just a property of the chemicals they opted to use.

Stefan Giudici I'm happy to spend a bit initially to find the better resins. Monocure is one I haven't tried, so I'll take a look, thank you ?

Stefan Giudici monocure will yellow if over-cured.

Ed Horn just checked...theres lots of percentage strength....any In particular?

Lee Rogers I just use what I get at the grocery store. Use it all the time to restore yellowed plastic parts. I can't guarantee it works with all resins though.

I use anycubic clear

3% works for most things But it will likely vary depending on the resin brand. Good luck.
