Finally got all the pieces printed for my Eris Greyrat bunny figure!
Pretty happy with how she’s turning out so far! Still need to remove the supports, clean everything up, and assemble her.
Only just realized I accidentally used heavy supports on every single piece lol. Wish me luck 😭

Hey folks, I've had a saturn 3 for 3 years, and I've got a dark circle on the expusure test, one way or another, it needs new parts. What I'm trying to decide though is if it's worth $125-ish for replacement parts, or, judging on the current price for the Saturn 4's, if it's just worth upgrading to that printer rather than saving the Saturn 3. Would love some opinions, as well as thoughts on a decent resin printer for under 500 right now.

Three Days ago I got my first Resinprinter. I got myself the syraia tech blu resin because I wanted a safer material. On the second day I printed a few test prints, I wore gloves a respiratory mask. Had an open window and a fan to circulate the air outside. I have gone through the steps of cleaning the materials twice in different batches of ethanol, backing it in the Oven for 20min and than curing it for 25min. Well no luck. After a few hours I stopped wearing a mask in my working room, I left the fan on and window open. And then I touched the prints with bare hands. Now starting yesterday I notice redness around my fingers, and neck a small support piece few there when breaking it off. So I thought maybe I got a bad batch or messed up somewhere in the post processing. Well that evening I notice swelling in my lips presumably from the fumes as my nose is a little affected to. So well it seems I'm hyper allergic to resin even hardened and I just bought a new printer and curing station, so I thought well it seems I can't handle resin printing and return the printer, but the seller doesn't take returns after the printer was used. Now I'm stuck with two expensive Maschines I can't use and have no clue what to do with.

These are some miniatures I designed, if you feel interested then you can find them here:

My parts stopped working after I slowed down the table when it was detaching from the FEP and descending to the FEB.

Hey everyone, I just bought a photo mono four ultra and after a few prints I’ve realized an issue. I don’t know if it’s exactly preventing my printer or anything, but I’ve taken the screen protector off and there’s this weird blob. Can anyone tell me what this is and if it’s a failure, therefore, preventing my prints, thank you

Hey, I'm new to resin printer. Does it make sense to order the package that comes with the Form Studio Wash+Cure? Or can I get something else similar/better from another brand?

If I get that package that comes with reg wash+cure, it delays delivery by quite a bit.

Lots of other options as well in the order form.

Hey, just posting this for advice of what to do.

I own a photon mono 4 (second hand) and a while ago i had a hole in the fep.. so i replaced it. But now its leaking even worse!!!!! I dont know what went wrong.

This is the only pic i have of what it looked like when i took off the vat and removed some. It was clear and very brittle even though my resin isnt clear.

I dont know what went wrong, please somebody help mee😭😭

Anyone have settings that work for getting this stuff to stick to the plate? Im using mars 5 ultras and Saturn 4 ultras and everything seems to seperate.

They aren't major but they are showing up a bit more frequently lately. Could it be a sign to change the acf film? I just hit 70k layers on the one the printer came with. Could it be needing to grease the z rod?

Hello.

I built my setup this summer, everything in a big grow tent. Because of health issues I never was able to start printing and I won't be for the next months. The garage is held at +1°C in winter with a heater and smart thermometer. Will this damage the printer? It's an elegoo Saturn 4 ultra. Winter usually lasts for at least 5 months here.

3D-printed grill won’t fit the stone model — scan, design, or resin issue?

Hi everyone, I’m making a single-tooth grill, but the resin print won’t fully fit the original dental stone model.
My setup:
Scanner: 3DMakerpro Seal with a multi-axis turntable
Design software: Nomad Sculpt
Printer: ELEGOO Mars 5
Resin: Siraya Tech Cast Purple
I scan the stone model and design the grill directly against the scanned tooth, without adding any intentional internal clearance.
The print goes on partway but stops before seating fully. This happens at the resin stage, before metal casting. I’m testing it on the original stone model, not in my mouth.
I’m unsure whether the problem is scan accuracy, my design workflow, or distortion during printing or post-curing.
Has anyone successfully made grillz using this resin or a similar setup? How would you identify the cause? Do you add internal clearance or block out undercuts before designing the grill?
Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you!

Hi everyone,

I've recently received a small humbre SLA as a gift. It's the Elagoo saturn 2 pro. and I was extatic. I did the initial bed calibration ok then tried to do a print with the resin I got with the printer (Elagoo water washable ABS-like resin (V1?))

But then I tried to do a big print : the "doom-guy" from my minifactory scaled up to 150%
I hollowed it (2mm) added draining holes at the lowest point and bumped up the first layer exposure time to 40s (from 35s stock) to prevent bed lift as it is a huge print

My issue is that I don't know enough to start fixing my setup myself :
Is it a resin issue ? resin parameter ? Too many parts on the platform ? bad hollowing / draining holes ?

Also on another note, if anyone has recomendation for resin that has low odors and that I can use for huge prints I'l gladly listen !

Thanks!

This printer is currently on sale for under $500(w/o a heated vat). Is it worth picking up or should I wait for the Photon P1 to go on a sale closer to that price point?

Some initial test prints!
