PaganMegan 22869 Report post Posted Tuesday at 09:38 PM Dove in today. Good: WAY faster than the CR-6 filament printer. WAY better detail than the CR-6. Jewelry quality, my test print was a ring. Bad: NOISY! Not vaccuum cleaner loud, but blow dryer loud. Light leaks! UV rich light spilling out the bottom and sides. Between the noise and the light, no way we can keep this in our bedroom like the CR-6. But the Good is WAY more important than the bad. I love my precioussss!

With the way the fumes are ventilated, I don't think you'd want to do that anyways. Welcome to the resin club!! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

haldir 43916 Report post Posted yesterday at 01:26 AM Well finally re-assembled my VAT & I'm printing again. Will it be a success? We shall see in 6 to 7 hrs (in other words, it'll finish while I'm at work tonight, so I guess it's more like 15 hrs & I'll see it when I get home). I decided to start the female fomorian witch "mini" from Rocket Pig. I've decided to start her waist down piece. Fingers crossed!! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Four if they are Large. Mostly MUMBLE! (I'm channeling Grump ) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I did chop/cut off a foot as I was cutting a close support, but the break was clean & it'll easily glue back on. I think it happened due to her being hollow & just not enough material in the area. Oddly with her being hollow there are supports inside her, I can't cut off. I started her torso & if it comes out, I'll work on that in the morning.
