what is best program for adding supports to a model. been using chitubox but it is wanting to put supports on the model filing detail instead of doing them to a long support next to it

I'm sure this has been asked many a time, but what is everyone's favorite clear resin solution? And is it worth it to mix in a little Flex to help with brittleness?

Hi all, I did the resin test from Thingiverse for the Photon S. It suggested a 6s curing time. Here's a test print I did with manual supports. (I goofed while placing them and somehow they got reverted from 3D Printing Pro's settings back to default and I didn't notice, so taking off the supports was a PIA and damaged the print. I had to sloppily add some resin in damaged areas.)
However I'm going to re-do the supports now that I've done this successfully once, with the proper support settings. Do you think I should lower my curing time? Does the print seem overexposed? This is 0.03 at 6s, 60s base, 8 bottom layers. (Heroforge mini at 170% size.) 翻譯年糕

Yet Another XP Finder Question...but with a small twist

I have a Qidi Shadow 5.5 S. It is powered by a Chitu main board, just as the Photon.

I ran the XPFinder scripts, which worked perfectly. Once. Since running them, I've been having many issues: Z not homing, or homing incorrectly; "air printing", etc.

I expect that I'm actually dealing with a faulty controller, or corrupted firmware, based on my issues, but I need to explore this side of things, too.

With the Chitu firmware bring closed source, I have no real way to confirm original configuration, and that the XPF gcode to reset to print mode is providing compatible settings.

So, my question (s):

1) is there any way to extract current settings and values from a stock Chitu-based printer? Anything like Marlin's M503?

2) is there any information on what gcodes work and are meaningful with Chitu?

3) anything else, any *where* else, I can look for info on Chitu firmware, configuration settings info, or even a resource for uncompiled source?

TIA!

Printed a bridge with next dent resin and the tibase is not seating down into the print. Any advice of why this happened and how to prevent it?

Weird peeled up support bases along the edges as shown. I've made this part several times, but since changing out the FEP I'm starting to see more of this weird curled edge effect. Coincidence? Amazingly, the part came out 100% fine. Any ideas?

I created a colour swatch to help me mix existing resins to create 'new' colours.

I hadn't had success with CMYK pigments, and mixing batches one by one was a pain in the butt nevermind wasteful.

Thingiverse: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4118104

I could have ordered a custom resin but; 1) I wanted to see a range of colours in person, 2) Wanted to keep resin cost down, 3) Wanted to stick with my preferred resin brands to save dialling in a resin that was unknown to me.

I hope this helps anyone in a similar situation. Will answer any questions you might have.

I could also do with knowing whether the Thingiverse page for it makes enough sense!

I have a problem and so I am trying the group minds of both the resin and printer

I have a Anycubic Photon and using the Monocure 3D Clear (pure with no flex)

I had some successes with the resin test file and then printing out a test file with the new settings twice with full success but then taking off the second one I knocked the plate out of level.

No problem I just relevel like I have done many times before using the paper technique. Now no prints stick to the plate even using the same test file that made successful prints before I had to relevel. Instead I end up with cured resin in the bottom of the vat. I have cleaned and releved the build plate over 6 times now and puting the resin back in the bottle and cleaned the vat at the same time.

What am I doing wrong? I am using the same resin, same file, same settings that worked before but now I am at 100% failure rate
