What Caused (or) Causes this?

Postby Dstonic » Sun Aug 06, 2017 4:02 pm

12 mm wide 2 mm thick grew it twice with slight changes to supports in hopes of corrrecting. Crazy thing is it grew exactly the same. Both attempts I have used separate .stl files both passing mesh builds. Cleaned and double checked resin by straining. Any ideas?

Why not print that directly on its side?

I did try that at first but before printing I noticed it hung over the grid on the computer screen by just a fraction. So I though it wise I stand itup and print on a 30 degree angle and put sufficient amounts of supports. It measures about 27 across.....do I have to pay attention to the grid on the computer screen? I'm thinking I do....what do you think?

I tried this time growing straight up and adding more supports as a safe measure... got this in return.

Change your film. Use new resin. Or at least add 50% new. Strain it.

Good point...I did after that first grow...Strained it and had added newer resin by minimal 50% at best. Film is in great condition.

That is strange David. You said this takes up the whole grid printing? If you have room try moving it to the left or right side. I get things like that every now and then. Most time it's a support thing.
Also maybe try and putting in a ring support base. Go to manual supports, click ring support then click on the ring. You then can go back and do auto or add regular supports.

Hello there Mike, I didn't think it would print if the red part was showing....but after reading on other threads I see I probably could have used the 60 mm resolution ? I did put the manual support for the base on one of my attempts though.
