You have TONS of room left....I see at least .1mm, maybe .2mm to go before the screws

These posts need to stop. They encourage bad habits for people just learning how to use their machine, and serve no positive purpose.

Who cares as long as the build plate is under the resin on exposure fill it to what you like, why are people saying bad habits?? It's no where near spilling over the vat

- agree 100%
It’s kind of like posting videos of people driving and doing stupid things like running around the vehicle while no one is driving.
Or eating pods.
This is a productive group, not supposed to be a silly group.

- mostly because either they don’t know much resin until the build plate drops in and pushes the liquid up.
Or because they don’t want to babysit the print and fill the vat to the max.

there is actually info on how much resin it will need for the print. So then calculate that dividend by the time. Then you will know when to add more, or if even you need to add more.
Even filling it over that line, doesn’t guarantee you will have enough resin.
Janus Stark

its the ball joint and screws getting full of resin is the issue

Oh yeah well that's a different matter if it's that high I would worry about overflow, I always fill to the first line of the vat just a tad over but not much more

You don't need to babysit the print! If your print's going to take eight hours, but you have to leave the house in two, let the print go and just top it off before you leave. You can safely overfill the hell out of your vat, once your plate is safely hovering higher above it!

Showing people what NOT to do is just as important as showing them what TO do.
Failure and mistakes are how we learn.

Honestly it really depends on what you are printing and how long it takes. Slicers lioe Chitubox calculate how much resin it will need to complete the print. So if the bevel is day 20ml and the build requires 40, well if you leave it too long you will have a failure. Putting in as much as is needed for the prints you are doing is fine as long as it’s not too high as it is in the above pic.

So making sure people know that overfilling you’re vat is bad, is a bad thing? Since when is telling people something important a bad thing??
I got one put as much resin as is needed for the print to complete so the print doesn’t fail due
to lack of resin.
Yes overfilling can be bad for the machine if it hits those screws and the ball joint, but some of us like to be sure that the print won’t fail and the resin vat won’t end up empty especially on 8-10 hour builds that would normally require filling mid print.
I usually do long prints like that either overnight or while I am out running errands and I put more than enough in that it won’t need filling for at least a few hours if at all.
And after a long/large print is done there is always resin left to immediately start your next print especially if you are printing something in multiple parts.

- well. The problem isn’t the filling past the line. You can do that! It’s your printer. Do as you wish.
But the point that we are making here is.... don’t take a picture of it overfilled “living on the edge!!” And show people that it’s a thing you should do.
I mean you can do whatever you want. But try not to encourage new people to do the same.
That was the whole point of the conversation.

It's not like he's showing it running above the screws. If I bought a Corvette I wouldn't drive it 125mph just because someone posted a video of them doing it.

I do what I want with my printer and my resin. Good for all of you with no day job, no need for sleep, no family, and plenty of time to sit next to the printer for 48 hours to refill resin every time it requires.
Dante Domínguez

Guess you either have no job (besides printing), or you are never going to print something big/dense.

I even accounted for the resin movement when the plate moves up and down. That's why there is still some space. Guess even that's wrong for some people here who, apparently, pour 5ml max resin in their vats and sit next to the printer for eternity repeating it over and over.

No big deal even if you go over. Gravity.......... I can't tell you how many times I have gone over and I have leveled my bed once...........Stop believing everything you read in these groups.

I always fill the vat up to roughly 1mm before it runs out of the vat (with the bed lowered into the VAT
:-)

Thank you. This is my issue with these posts in a nutshell. I don't care what other people do with their machines. I care that they're posting on here crowing about how cool they are for getting so close to ruining their build plate and unintentionally encouraging inexperience people new to 3D printing to do the same.

- not only that. But say it over flows into the LCD screen and main board.
It’s like playing with the machine’s health and potentially breaking it.

Sorry but this is just boring.
Yeah it's fun doing it for the first time.
But then nothing cool, when I'm doing in daily basis.
I have to top off my vat every day. I do not print for fun. It's part of the job. I don't feel anything anymore.

- someone asked where the mark was, so I posted a pic.
I print with mostly filament. My largest print was the Paris tower 3 feet high adorned with led lights.
As for resin, I have not had a real interest yet. It’s sad, but I don’t want to print figures or baby yoda. I was thinking maybe jewellery and cast.
Dennis M. Burns

As soon as the plate clears the vat I just dump as much as I feel it should need to finish. Then before the next print when I "home" the plate I hope it doesn't go over.
