Thanks again for all the responses yesterday regarding the concerns I had. Lot of great feedback.
A little history on me, I bought an M3D a few years ago to print some small structures for my model railroad. I think I probably had more failures than successes. I then bought a PowerSpec mini i3 duplicator from MicroCenter and had a much higher success rate. Even with both of those I've only printed <50 objects. All I've ever done is go to thingiverse and pull down the appropriate files and print (might explain my failures)
My wife got me the Photon for Valentines Day (pretty sweet I know). I printed the test file and love it. I tried to get an STL of the Eiffel Tower and print it because that's something I never had great success with my FDMs.
It seems critical that I use additional tools to make STL files Photon friendly.
I've installed Phton Workshop and Photon Slicer. I tried to import my Eiffel model into it and thought I had it figured out. When I take it to the printer to print, the Z Axis tried to keep going up higher than it can go as soon as I start the print and it fails. I have to go into the menu and hit emergency stop.
Can someone recommend a video series that might help educate me on the basics of file / model preparation for the Photon? Also, is there an STL library that is Photon friendly?
Looking forward to learning more from you.

Wife bought me the original Photon for Valentines Day. It's been sitting all week because I've watched all the videos and read articles and seen all the warning signs about the resin and don't leave it in the vat for more than 48 hours, yada yada yada..
I couldn't let this beautiful thing just sit here unused until I had something I needed to print so I opened it all up today and I printed the Test File Cube. It did an outstanding job!
Give it to me straight, how careful do I really need to be with this resin? Obviously anything foreign in the eyes is a bad thing, but excluding the eyes, and I guess consuming it, how dangerous is it really?
Also, when I got done with my test print I didn't have anything I needed to print (and I need to figure out slicing / adding supports) I used one of the paper funnels to funnel the resin back in the container and cleaned everything up. I used alcohol and paper towels to wipe down the top and bottom of the build plate and inside / around the vat.
On a 1 - 10 scale where 1 is not cleaning it at all and 10 is clinically diagnosed OCD. How anal do I really need to be around the resin, in the cleanup afterwards and long term storage of the resin (can it sit in the vat for 30 - 60 days?
I feel like I just gave it a solid 8 or 8.5 on the cleanup and used a lot of paper towels and in hindsight it felt a lot like overkill..
Looking for some honest education here.
