Resin printer updates
I’ve finally gotten a handle on my resin printer and have gotten some successful prints! Here’s some of what I did to get it to a good state:
- Replaced the stock FEP sheet with an nFEP sheet (although that’s mostly because the stock one was leaking a little)
- Added some PTFE lubricant to the LCD screen (to aid with cleanup in particular)
- Increased the exposure times; first layers went from 30s to 45, and subsequent layers went from 2.5s to 4
- Started using Chitubox on Linux because it performs way better than the Mac version (not really anything to do with the printer itself, but, y'know)
- Ground down the build plate some more
- Figured out a better way of angling prints
