  Which printer is better: the Saturn 4 Ultra 16k or the RayForm RF-3024D 4k?

  ​ I’m new to 3D printing. I’m thinking about buying one in the future for dental use. But I’d like one that at least has the ability to print two models at the same time so I don’t have to keep emptying the tank all the time to use different resins. The RayForm printer caught my attention because, according to its catalog, it comes with 3 platforms and 3 different resin tanks. The first is a standard-sized platform and tank. The second is a dual platform and dual tank.

  Any idea what might have happened?

  I bought this printer used, it had some resin on the screen from a spill and some inside I had cleaned out. (Pictures 2-4) had made several prints without issue. I replaced the film and got another bottle of fast gray siraya noticed flaking starting to occur to varying degrees of severness the last 3 prints and went to trouble shoot and found I can no longer print a working set of cones of calibration and this was my first time using the exposure test to see the screen. I removed the screen protector and it is still present.

  My first ever (failed) print!

  I bought a used Anycubic Photon M3 + Elegoo 8k water washable space grey resin. The test print came out looking like a pancake lol. The print stuck pretty good to the FEP film. I haven't tuned any settings nor resin specific settings. Homed the printer using a regular piece of paper. Wouldn't mess with lubricating the film with WD40 just yet lol. This will be a fun journey finetuning everything! :D Any tips and tricks are appreciated! submitted by /u/Grandpa_Max [link] [comments]

  Been a while since I last used my printer 😅

  I haven’t printed in months. Had this layer issue back then but brushed it off by just sanding. But I should probably fix it now that I’m back to printing. Some stuff like the bottom of the print just needs more supports on the peg I believe, that’s why it isn’t straight and had those issue, same with the feathers maybe. But there’s weird layer lines in the back and chest, and a more noticeable one on the face. Not really sure what it could be. submitted by /u/Op-X4 [link] [comments]

  Designed this Arlecchino from scratch. Had to do some sketchy UV resin "welding" to save the print

  I don't actually play Genshin Impact, but my girlfriend showed me Arlecchino's design and I instantly wanted to sculpt it. Modeled it from scratch back in August, went on vacation, and completely forgot about the file for 2.5 months. Finally fired up the Elegoo Mars 5 Ultra this week.

  Maintenance manual

  I keep having problem keeping my workstation clean and my lcd screen safe (the printing one, not the interface one). I have a elegoo mars 2 but I can't keep it clean. I read and followed articles, YouTube and reddit post but I think I'm missing some fundamental. Is there something like "resin printing for dummies" or an actual book like "How to diagnose the problem step by step". Like reading material thicker than elegoo manual. submitted by /u/Middle_Dangerous [link] [comments]

  Spooky printer cam footage

  Can anyone guess what this worm looking thing moving in the footage is? I suspect its a piece of hair or dust on the camera, but it's movement resembles a living organism, almost like some bacteria. It's creeping me out a little bit. I will check later when I'm back home and give an update, but in the meantime - any theories? submitted by /u/jovo-graphics [link] [comments]

  My smallest print in my five years if printing

  And it's STILL oversized 😭 I am working on a N-Scale ( [1/160] model of the old abandoned train station platforms by me. This one single antique lamp is still in place at one of them and is what initially drew my interest to the stations. I had to upscale it from my initial accurate design to even be able to print. submitted by /u/LoganPine [link] [comments]
