I believe Chitubox 1.5 is miscalculating resin weight.
1) I confirmed the density of the resin by measuring out 10g of water and marking the level in this cup. I then weighed out 10g of Elegoo grey resin and the level is just below my mark - confirming a density of 1.1.
2) I hollowed the model to a .5mm shell with plenty of drain holes. Chitubox shows a weight of 7.6g of resin.
3) I weighed the vat before my print and after, showing 13.3g of resin was used. The finished model weighed 12.7g giving 0.3g of resin lost in cleaning.
Chitubox 1.5 underestimated the weight of the resin by 60%. Does the slicer not calculate the weight of supports?
Photon File Validator shows 12.6g which almost perfectly matches the actual print weight.
Am I doing something wrong?
