I’m not 100% sure because I’m fairly new as well but I’d try going with 25 seconds for the bottom layers and adding a bit of wait time before lifting.
It looks like your bottom layers did fine but maybe the normal layers didn’t adhere properly to the bottom layers. That could explain why you had some sticking to the FEP.
I’d also make sure the FEP sheet is is good shape. No big scratches or dents.
Check out Formlabs resin printers. They have special resins that may do what you need. They also have sales people on staff to walk you through everything.
They’re pretty pricey for a hobbyist (at least for this hobbyist) but a business may be ok with it.
10-4. I hear you.
For labs sells a biocompatible resin for medical use. I’ll probably end up switching to that.
I just looked in to a vibratory tumbler, they aren’t cheap!
Elegoo clear blue ABS like resin.
I’ve thought about attaching a jar to my drill and turning the part in some kind of medium.
What kind of parameters need adjusting for your process?
Appreciate that detailed explanation. I probably should have put something in the picture for scale. This is about 2.5cm in diameter. Not sure I could get a buffing tool small enough to be useful.
They are indeed support marks. I’ve already messed with orientation and this is the position with the least marks so far. I haven’t really messed with support settings yet. Thanks for the idea.
Extra cool!
I fancy myself fairly tech savvy. I managed to figure out this Lemmy thing, lol.
For whatever reason I’ve never really understood how an RSS thing works. I guess I’ve just never been compelled to figure it out.
My main point is that the kinds of people who were/are getting all their news from Meta probably couldn’t figure out RSS either.
Seems like a good idea though. I might have to finally dig in to it.
It’s solid. I didn’t think making it hollow would save much.
I’m a parent too and I agree with you for the most part. I’m woefully under qualified for this job and I’m very grateful for the professionals and other adults in my youth’s lives. We’re very much missing the ‘village’ part of raising kids.
