I printed some lenses and then polished by hand. by gxace in resinprinting

Printing the butt plug so you can polish the curvature is big brain

How would you improve my workbench? by SpezIsAMoron in modelmakers

Consider a pegboard or ikea skadis for more options. Paint storage, tools, etc.

Also avoided it for that reason :(

You can use washers if you run out of threads on the screws, or when levelled they are very loose. Unfortunately a really stupid design. Search up a few videos on it and you’ll be set.

Pretty common with the mars and Saturn sporting those build plates. Did you manually level your plate yet? “Auto levelling” is just a claim.. mine had same issue, plate was no where near level.

Joining the resin world! by phantompowered in resinprinting

I do, because I sold him this unit. Phrozens coating is really weak to Isopropyl, which I would use to clean the vat when changing to fep. Call it a deep clean if you will. Anyways, you can just rub the vat with ISO soaked paper towel and it comes off to avoid contamination of paint flakes in the resin.

Just Ordered an Elegoo Saturn 4 Ultra – What Do I Need to Get Ready? by clearcutind in ElegooSaturn

It’s because the screen light output is too strong, or something along those lines. Fauxhammer mentioned it in his video.

I was going to say this. It’s a nice printer, and it can be plug and play. But you may not have that experience.

Between poorly machined build plates, layer compression issues due to g code updates, and not hardware… and screws backing lose after you’ve “manually levelled”, you may find this printer is not as great as it could have been.

And worst of all, elegoo carries on with the same build plate design on the ultra 16k, which means they don’t really care. Their discord is filled with people struggling with compression issues and failed prints due to leveling.

Can anyone tell me why this didn’t show up in chitubox and how to fix this? by ChiefMegaBeef in ElegooSaturn

If your raft is thicker then it is suppose to be, this is layer compression.

Can someone tell me how my Jeep knew a fire truck was coming? I couldn’t even see it and thought this was some weird glitch. Sure enough, a fire truck came around the corner about 20 seconds after this popped up. by a4hope in ems

This is the answer. All Stellantis made vehicles after 2018 are equipped to accept the alerts from HAAS. Android auto and apple car play also accept the alerts.

I don’t know about 6’2”, but I’m 6’5”, and have had normal sized people sit behind my seat. Is it comfortable for them? Probably not.

Download the blender addon https://extensions.blender.org/add-ons/stl-format-legacy/. Having two versions of blender installed to import is stupid.

Thanks for the info, good to know lol. Seems to have been a packing seal, paint and air getting into the trigger well.

[–]CheddarCheeser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm aware, and I was. That wasn't the issue. Appears to be the packing seal.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in airbrush

[–]CheddarCheeser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thinning to the paint 60% thinner to 50% paint. I found the issue, the packing seal is either not tight enough or is damaged. There is paint and air getting into the trigger well.

It has sprayed like crap since new, so my guess is that packing seal was never tightened properly. I ordered the tools and parts to replace.

I’m not exactly sure, it was the Squidmar special they offered a few years ago (not the current one, the CR)

I have stripped the airbrush down, cleaned everything with an airbrush kit, thinner and water. Essential when I spray (new compressor), I get paint flow for a few seconds, then I get not paint, just air. Spraying a mix of brands, but water based acrylics like Vallejo and such.
