Having failed more than ive managed to print now, is there a test piece/settings i can try to see if there is something wrong with my machine. Its printed 1 job fine then i redid it and it prints about 5mm then rest sticks to FEP. I thought it was supports ect at first but its done it on a totally flat piece just the same. Ive leveled the bed using both ways..... Its about to go back but want to make sure its not just me lol

Hi Guys! Long time listener, First time caller!
Iv had my photon for a 3 months now and have had some awesome prints rolling off of it.

I print a lot of 28mm mini's and normally leave my machine going through the night. I normally set an alarm for when its done, Get up, Turn it off and then go back to bed. Sometimes when I get up in the morning, clean the print and then go to clean the vat I notice that some resin has has seeped out the vat and is now between the screen glass and the vat. I thought the first time it did it was just maybe some spillage from me being careless and I even checked the FEP for holes or gapes but nothing. I removed some of the partly cured resin with a razor blade from the glass and with some IPA it was as good as new. I have noticed it happens more and more now - A fresh set up on Sunday, Printed for most of the day (2 or 3 units of minis), went to clear down Sunday night and there it is again!!! and we are not talking about like a few drops, im talking like enough to cover the whole area the vat takes up

My FEP looks in good condition no holes, few marks and lines but from what iv seen on here these things can take a beating and keep on trucking so I dont think its that, Im thinking about changing it out to see if that makes a diff?

Could it be that im leaving the machine over night after its printed (say it stops at like 01:00 then I would not be up until like 07:00 so maybe that is leaving it to long full of resin?)

Has anyone else had this issue? and if so what was the fix? any help from the hive mind is appreciated!

Pic: Just for attention Its the second print I ever printed! lol

I am completely new to 3D printing. My machine has not arrived yet.

I am trying to do research on best resin’s and how to color them. I am hoping to not get super brittle parts as they are for a visual prototype. Which is why I need to color them. I have looked into painting and it appears that mixing colors is more the direction I want to go.

I also need a clear option that works best and comes out clear. Fred Breton I was told you were the guy to ask about this.

Thank you in advance for all the help!

Hello, I am using Photon slicer for mac. I've had better results than with Chitu. however, when i offset the part in Z and generate supports the slicer simply ignores this and smashes the part back onto the plate, i can see some traces of supports left however. Any suggestions for how to avoid this? Thank you

I used anycubic Photon S and setting machine as this picture. But the model had layers. How to set the machine for model without layer?

Currently saving up for a Photon and I'm trying to take in as much info as possible (I've been FDMing for a few years but I understand resin is a totally different beast).
I'm planning on using the machine for medium-large models and I'm wondering what resolution is generally acceptable? I'm looking to do as little post-processing as possible (priming/sanding with FDM is too much work!). Is 50μm good enough? Anyone have any high-res photos showing the same model at different resolutions (preferably both pre and post priming, I'm interested in seeing how layer lines are affected)?
Thanks peeps.

Hello I just ordered my anycubic photon and am really excited but a little nervous I've been using filament 3d printers for years so I know a lot of the little tips and tricks but this is my first resin printer and I was wondering if anyone knows of a good video that goes over the basics of resin printing so I don't screw up or buy parts and resins that don't work (I did buy a 3mm filament when the only 2 machines I had were 1.75 at the start of my 3d printing journey)

Something I printed and painted today.

Printed with Magma white and painted with Citadel paints.

The Photon continues to be an amazing machine.

Got inspired by a show on Adam Savage's 'Tested' YouTube channel a few weeks ago. Printed in 6 peices at 0.02 with PrimaCreator grey resin. Quite pleased with the result, although I think I could do a better job a second time round. Spent a fair bit of time polishing the surfaces before painting.
