Anycubic Photon Printer Owners 造訪社團 » 用戶發文

I want to print a couple of traditional D&D-style trolls (not Peter Jackson Trolls, or giant horn-faced roid-rage bodybuilders, or colorful little hairy toys :) ).

I found mz4250's troll and that would seem to do the trick, but when I load it I see that black space around its mouth that usually indicates something is wrong with the file and it's not going to print.

Is there any easy way to fix this, or, failing that, is there another troll STL I haven't found that doesn't look too resoundingly different from the drawings in the Monster Manual?

I'm considering picking up some Siraya Blu or ??? (Other strong resin I've seen mentioned here as a good mixer) to add into regular resin to print slightly tougher minis. If I do so, is it safe to mix them all at once for gradual use, or should I just add a little in at print time? Seems like the latter would make it tough to control the ratio so I'm hoping the former is OK.

Some of my prints are sagging. Is this a sign I need a longer exposure time?

How frequently do these printers tend to need re-greasing of that threaded piece that controls the build plate location? Mine just moaned at me while running a resin-mixing gcode...

Okay, so given my problems of the past few days with hardly anything sticking to the build plate, I've done the following:

- Changed out the FEP, the original of which had a divot in it
- Scraped dried resin off the screen, which was probably the cause of the divot
- Re-leveled multiple times
- Tinkered with the bottom exposure time (currently 70, ran resin test @100) and bottom layers (10-12).

Anycubic green, first few prints went fine. Shaken thoroughly every time from a bottle I opened yesterday.

Screen and FEP are now squeaky-clean, and once I got the mess cleaned off the screen and re-re-re-leveled I was hopeful and decided to print one of those resin calibration strips to see what my best exposure time would be... and it failed, left side dangling from the platform as it rose up, with hardly anything legible on it except the number 8 (though there were holes in the print above the 8...).

Could this happen from my FEP being too tight or too loose? Is there a better way to check its tightness than "it sounds like a drum"? If that's not it, I'm not sure what else to try.

I've managed to print a few minis, but only because if I put 4 into a .photon I can sometimes get one or two of them to print :p . The volume of resin I've thrown away dwarfs the amount that's sitting in miniature form waiting to be painted.

Any ideas why a 2nd print of a file that worked fine last night would start hanging away from the build platform around the edges when printing today? Same resin, same settings.

It's here, set up, plugged in, and leveled, and I'm anxious to print something. Installed slicer software, opened the PHOTON.photon project on the USB stick... and no object shows up in the slicer. (It does seem to be there in the LCDViewer window). Aargh!

Also, the default layer/exposure/etc settings don't seem to match the ranges recommended in the manual - what are good settings for the test print using the Anycubic green that comes with the printer?

I do some terrain in XPS and foamcore and among the first things I would have printed had I gone FDM is a set of twxture rollers... but I ended up going resin first. Anyone done rollers in resin? Tough enough to work & last?

Is there a limited window of opportunity for curing? I.e. if I haven't rigged up a UV box yet and a print finished when it's dark/overcast/rainy, is there a ticking timer to get some UV on it or it won't cure properly?

Ordered yesterday, should have Photon in time for the weekend! This will be my first 3d printer, and I ended up going resin because I have a lot of gaming minis I want to print and didn't want to spend weeks tweaking profiles to get them to look decent in FDM. (Will probably get an FDM unit as well at some point.)

I'll probably set it up in the garage to keep the mess and smell outside. Do I need to worry about high heat/humidity or winter cold impacting my prints? The garage doesn't reach outdoor temps, but it can get uncomfortable out there.
