Is there a setting I have missed somewhere that will allow me to place supports in Chitubox where the base of the support will connect with the model, rather than the platform? I've tried everything and cannot get it to work :( Connects to the platform just fine.

Left my new photonS, right my original photon. I tried the exact same settings on both - .03 layer height, 10 seconds exposure, 10 bottom layers at 100 seconds and using Monocure rapid grey. No problems with sticking to the plate but 10 seconds is definitely too long for the PhotonS! Trying again at 7 seconds! ?

Some of my plinths! Modelled by me in blender and a considerable amount of milliput and sanding time ? there were some printing flaws but these are now perfect for molding and casting. Busts from Ouroboros Miniatures ?

Argh not enough resin! So close. Shoulda checked it before bed! ? lesson learned.

I'm having an issue with my prints (monocure rapid grey) sticking TOO well to the plate. I broke my spatula, and have had to resort to a craft knife blade to remove the prints and even then I still have bits sticking that I have to scrape off. I haven't sanded, I use a drop of platebond because I've had trouble in the past with the print separating from the plate, and I'm printing outside, overnight in Australia when temps are getting as low as 8-9 degrees celsius. I thought resin had to be heated in winter or it wouldn't work? Any ideas? Especially if anyone has found a safe alternative to a craft blade without potentially amputating their fingers! I tried a metal paint scraper but it's not sharp enough to get under the edge of the print.

Will it print? I hope so! I've tried to print it at 45 degrees, and at 30 degrees and finally decided direct on the plate is best as the others all ended up with strange artifacts and it needs to be perfect as I want to make a mold. attached a pic of the previous fail! this is the edge that was closest to the plate and it's a real mess :/ My only concern with flat on the plate is that the solid surface before the hollow starts is 130 odd layers and I hope it's not too much suction.

I must update my opinion on chitubox. I’ve managed to get 3 perfect prints out of it in the last few days and this is how:

Hollow the model and add holes in mesh mixer. I still haven’t managed to get chitubox to reliably hollow, or add holes, without getting layer errors in the slice file.

Manually add supports with no sphere attachment - cone only - to the model in chitubox. Support bases are cylinder with no raft. Slice in chitubox.

Open the slice file in the photon file editor and find any major islands. Fix them in chitubox and slice again. Rinse repeat until there are minimal unsupported islands. Fix any pixels left over.

Send to printer. It’s well under 10 degrees Celsius in my city at the moment and I cbf bringing the printer inside or putting a space heater in my printing shed outside so I’m just winging it in the cold ? so far so good!

I wish for 2 things. That one piece of software was all that was needed to hollow, slice and find/repair errors, and that there was a couple of paintbrush options in the validator. ?

I need to work on the sculpt a bit more and print her bigger and in pieces, but I’m dead impressed with what this printer can do! It even printed the wires on her wheel which I didn’t expect to see at that scale! ?

Anyone here using Harzlabs resin and can attest to the odourless claim? I’d like to bring my printer inside but not with stinky resin. Considering purchasing some harzlabs but wanted to get some opinions first ?

Does anyone know of an easy way to create a shell of just external polygons and delete all internal geometry? Someone sent me something to print but it’s about 300 individual components and I’m not sure I have the patience to Boolean union them all!
