And can I go with v5.0.0.2

if it isn't broke don't fix it.

Aaron Strome that's what she said...

Absolutely not.

Unfortunately 4.2.17 is broke - you'll run into the frame shearing bug sooner or later. 4.2.18 is what you should be using.

Might be a dumb question but how do you check your firmware?

I promise it can be done...but I only went with 1 base layer and I was SUPER careful on removal. The back legs don’t move those I threw a little resin on them and solidified them

he's not selling car insurance to anybody

Do it diagonally

This was diagonal but still flat on the build plate. I am thinking to try it diagonally in 3D space with added supports... when I get around to it. (:

Yeah is doable! Diagonally I found it was large enough. And then wash it real well and keep it moving when curing so nothing can fuse together!

RIP ? ? ?

Maybe another 15%.......

??‍♂️

Scaled it down to fit, then coated in circuit board gloss when cured!

Denlee Paddy Rhodes is that the same as a confirming coat?

Jonathan Basseri not sure it's basically an acrylic gloss but with a slight flex when dried

The question is, is it a solvent for resin. If not then it's not worth it.

Post-IPA I clean all my prints with demineralized water + Windex (equivalent) in an ultrasonic cleaner.

No

Not unless you stuck a nickel in there

screen change?

No, but maybe it won't give you too much trouble up on the edge there.

Great paint jobs!

You printed and painted them all in 10 days?

Dan Gump yep. And went to work.

addicting huh

10 days? Really? Those are some hardcore painting skills! Maybe you can do a tutorial or simething I printed a spitfire and took me 3 days to finish it

Israel HV nah I'm just ADHD as fuck and have had more down time than usual. I hyper focus like a mofo and just machine out shit.

Honestly before today I hadn't ever painted a mini other than. 20+ years ago and that was with a can of flat black spray paint.

I did work at a Michaels for six years as an inventory manager so I know how the stuff works mechanically but had never used any of it.

I watched a couple of YouTube videos from Games Workshop and just tried to do like they did.

Addicting isn’t it?

Tony Shadman like crack, only better.

You are excellent at painting those. I've seen some people mirror a model when they are printing more than one of the same thing.

Jonathan Basseri I did that for some of mine. The chaos demons are mirrors. But the human Mercs aren't just a trio of the same model.

Thanks! I am enjoying the painting more than i thought I would. It's a new creative outlet for me.

Where did you get some of these STL's?

I am new as well and finding it difficult to find all the types of D&D mobs

Brandon Bennett the dwarves mostly came from Artist Guild on Patreon. The big Mech and big Demon in the back came from Titan Forge on Patreon. The large angel and undead cleric came from thingiverse. The rest were part of the welcome packs from either Titan Forge or Artist Guild. I HIGHLY recommend either.

Brandon Bennett check Patreon. Be willing to spend 5-10 a month and you won't be disappointed.

William Tatum Thank you!

And more importantly, Painted them all. !!!!!!!!

Rod Williams I have an obsessive bent when I start a new hobby. I feel like the models don't come alive until I paint them.

It's like crack lol

John Sparkman my thoughts exactly

There is a guy who does EVERY monster made for dnd 5ed Fromm every book for FREE. Can’t remember his name but he’s has it all on thingyverse.

That's Miguel Zavala and you can find his models here

William Tatum adhd, fuck it, youre not from this planet, u got insane skills mate... keep going!

Those minis are awesome, id print more if I had a use and could paint worth a damn, but yep the last few days my printer went from doing zero work to doing a TON.

Your painting skills are better than mine. Well done!

Wow. That's one serious impressive 10 day effort, well done! 8)

What settings are you using I dont think my detail is the best

60-80 sec initial exposure, bottom 5 layers, 8-10 sec for regular exposure.

Your busts look great.

Shawn Michael Rains honestly I haven't ever painted before. I just watched a few video from Games Workshop and the just free-handed it.

Johnny Johnsen that's the plan. I started on terrain yesterday. I hope to have a full scene printed and done by Wednesday.

I never thought resin would be so addictive

i think you have put weapons wrong on cyberpunk CED

Are you injecting it between your toes yet?

Georgios Kolotouros that's what's beautiful about this, there is no "wrong". I modified it to make it my own ? ? ?

William Tatum haha ok my friend nice print

Georgios Kolotouros I also gave mine a sword

Stefan Ritchie not yet

Shane Thomas I highly recommend watching the videos from 3DPrintingPro on YouTube. That guy knows what he's doing. I just try to do like him and I've got about 85% success rates.

On those fine lines. I've found that u can get like a qtip or something finer and dab a wee bit of liquid resin into the crack and then hit it with a UV flashlight works wonders at removing them and being easy to sand or paint over.

In terms of the bit at the base though, I have similar issues when I print flat on the build plate. Even when perfectly leveled about 1/3rd of my prints placed flat on the build plate have that effect. Raising them up makes more work, but ? don't get that effect so long as supports don't fail.

Not sure of that makes sense.

Jonathan Basseri great stuff for the quantity and free. But there's a lot of great free stuff on myminifactory too

Also cults3d.com has some good stuff for free too.

William Tatum ok awesome I found a powerful florescent flashlight thell work perfectly

I've been busy lol

These are awesome! You did SUCH a good job painting my Bluejay Guardian ♥️

Mia Kay Bentzien ty so very much for making them and distributing them. I've never really had a creative outlet like this before, it's been a so much fun.

William Tatum You're welcome!! I am very lucky to have the support to share everything for free ^_^ I extra love it because I get to see people like you enjoy them!

Did you pause it at all? I've noticed when I pause my prints, they sometimes develop lines like that.

Obviously not the issue if they're not parallel with the layers, though.

Kyle Telechan this!

the lines could also be where more resin was added

I always get lines when i pause. And even if you have heavy supports if not enough or in the right place you can get flex at points that make lines

I got this too but fixed it by adjusting the orientation

I only pause it when it's at the support level, before it starts printing the main part, just to make sure everything is sticking to the build plate. I didn't add resin.

I would love to tilt this back but it won't fit. I love this printer but wish I went with a bigger build plate. I'm keeping my eye open for good deals.

Jennifer Tallman watch a few of this guy's videos. He changed the way I do things haha.
https://youtu.be/8xolVj0izVo

Oh I love his videos. I've watched just about every one. If I had a larger build plate, I would orientate it differently for sure.. but it barely fits and only upright. I may just have found the limitations of the Photon, but if there is a way to make this work, then I'd like to figure it out.

Can you put up a screenshot of the orientation?

"adjusting the orientation" ? ? ? ? I got it

Louis Siciliano that's exactly what my thought was. Either a pause or a resin top off.

If I tilt or move this in any direction, it'll be out of the bounding box

Louis Siciliano that’s because resin in vat is warmer. The resin on the bottle is colder and when you mix them, the expand of cured resin isn’t the same as previous layer.

Thanks Luiz Junior . Good to know. I dont add to my prints. Havent had too. But i keep my bottle inside the heated enclosure next to my printer anyway.

Almost thought this was another mask for c19. ?

reduce the scale about 10% if it doesnt have to be exactly that size

Insufficient internal supports cause deformation.

I suspect the lower line around the chin is suction. You need a vent hole at the lowest point of any pocket.

Are you be able to share the project with its supports, I won't be able to help, but there will be those with more experience who can look at your supports and make suggestions

Richard Günter Dölz I didn't save the supported file unfortunately. I had lots of internal heavy supports to ensure the printing of the heavy top.... but maybe it's too much material over a flat bottom surface. I can't change anything, since this is someone else's design.

I decided to use the Anycubic slicer instead of Chitubox and I found a way it'll fit and print with improved quality. It's a tight fit but it worked.

Nope!

worse than it was

I have seen lots of posts about it, not yet one positive in description lol.

Not sure. It's still loading

No. It s...s

Any better sites for free models? Looking for good d and d minis

Right there with you, it sucks.

I'd like it if it worked, but it's been slammed the past few days.

Slow af

It was working pretty well, and now it's just wrecked.

the search option is a mess!

It is terrible and more slow!

NOPE!!

It’s truly terrible.

No problems with it.

i dont, have found it much harder to find stuff than before and heaps more things not related to what i searched for

i like thingiverse although i have never once used it to search for models. my search engines takes me there.. but i certainly do not talk down about a site that gives free models without tons of adverts. but i guess haters gotta hate..

Im getting unusual results. Some not even close to what I searched.

yeah it sucks for real

They have been cleaning house with many models. So posters on thingiverse are saying there stuff is getting removed without any warning.

It’s very slow to load anything..?

Totally a disaster!

Was having problems with it not loading. Based on that experience then yeah I hate it ?

Absolutely hate it..... perfect time for another website to start up and fix all that thingiverse has failed to fix...

I don’t hate it just hate how slow it is right now, granted there is like a 500% boost to average traffic because of al the quarantines so it’s to be expected

Nope I hate it too, struggle to find anything now, I just go to yeggi.com and trawl through their pages until it links me to thingiverse

According to their Twitter. They switched servers and are still working on transferring stuf. They should have everything up and running within a couple of weeks.
Unfortunately they don't have the capacity right now for thousands of people searching FREE stuff on a FREE site. That should get better in the near future.

The virus stay at home advice is adding to the situation many folk are probably seeking 3D printing activities for the family etc,.

Thingiverse has always been laggy and crap - pandemic or not. I genuinely don't know how they've maintained such a badly optimised website for this long.

hate it older page was easier

Kerry Emery me too

It is absolutely appalling at the moment. Worse than normal.

Much more sloooooowerrrrr

I have not heard anyone liking the new page but it is still free and they will probably try to make it better. Besides, everyone and their brother is on Thingiverse in quarantine which screws up the site outside of their control.

I would offer an opinion but it wont' load for me.. so ...

It don't mater the look, but please make it faster!!!

doesn't matter cause the website doesn't fuckin work

For me it has been pathetically slow since Christmas and possibly before.

Darren Wade really? I mean it’s always been slow for sure, but usually loads for me within 15-20 seconds, definitely taking a minute or so now that everyone’s home and downloading.

I had quite a few days I was wanting to search for something and give up after letting it spin for a couple of minutes even though I found the thing through yeggi and knew it existed so that I didn't have to use their interface to search.
