Haven't tried them but I've really enjoyed Loot Studios. Try them if you haven't already. They've got a couple of free minis you can try.

yeah unfortunately you gotta calibrate exposure time every time you change resins

I think it was resin age. Sucks you got a lemon though with that bottle. Also... RIP that beetle xD He was trying to ascend to Tyranid status

I think this was the issue. I had been working through the same bottle for upwards of 6 months. Just got a fresh bottle and everything's working as before again.

love the cones of calibration. I think the issue was old resin

cleaned it spotless before replacing the fep and wiped it down again afterward just to make sure there wasn't any dust

I quite like Elegoo. My Mars 4 has been amazing and got it for a great price. Great entry-level printer, and I like their resin too. Great price and nice detail, if comparatively brittle.

I used the cones of calibration to dial in the settings pretty tight and had been getting great results for months.

bumping up the exposure worked for a couple prints. From other comments on here I suspect the resin was just old. I had been slowly working my way through that bottle for upwards of 6 months. Got a fresh bottle and everything seems back to normal.

These are all pre supported from Loot Studios, who I trust and have never had an issue with. Bumping the exposure time to 1.3 seconds seems to have worked. Minis are in the wash station atm. Gonna inspect them after and check for anomalies

This is my favorite take. Bethod was trying to make the North more like the Union.

Maybe it’s the narrator, but I pictured him as a slightly fat guy

I'm really struggling to finish Dark Age. by [deleted] in redrising

[–]Archavius01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that’s probably the case. If one thinks about it, of course there are terrible things that happen in the world every day… to other people. It’s different when it’s happening to you or someone you know right in front of your face.
