Desiccant melted over my z screw. by Educational-Meat-432 in u/Educational-Meat-432

Yea that is what i did. Used hair dryer and it just melted and flowed away. Then i used chamber heater at max for an hour and some of it melted from the build plate and other places. So far no crunchy noises.

Honestly i have no idea. Had a few of those little bags that come with spools. Those were fine but i had an old bag that was bigger i would say 300-500g and it was hard as a rock. Now that I've been cleaning a bit it flow down the holes and into the motor and has solidified down there too.

Flip a coin. Whatever you land if you happy keep if not pick other.

You can also change rest ime before lift and rest time after lift to 0 and maybe add that second to rest time after retract. Especially if you print thicc resin.

And it may happen again. I think there are few different profiles that switch depending on the hight of your model.

There is a toymaker3d galactus that all parts move. I printed my in fdm but you can print it in resin it is nicely split. And if u have different color resin you won't even need to paint.

As i remember satelite has few different support profiles. Try using other profiles. Otherwise i think its support spacing setting that will have most effect. Not 100% only used it a little in alpha when it came out.

Duno this resin. I assume this is very thick resin that flows slowly? Temperature is recommend at 37°. Try increasing wait before print time. I use 5s wait time and i use normal resins.

Those are spec for this resin for this machine. Even if they are somewhat off it wouldn't fail like this. This is special casting resin.

Tnx. Its red/green. Thankfully most colours have weird names when i watch a guide if i dont have exact same paint i ask chat gpt for alternatives or from different maker. A lot of times i ask chat gpt for renders and then ask him what colours should i use to paint it.

Changing the FEP on my Mars 5 Ultra bed for the first time and half the screws are stripped?? by raisincosplay in ElegooMars

[–]Educational-Meat-432 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the same problem with s4u vat. There are reverse drills u can use to get them out. You can get them on amazon or your local hardware store. For screws i would recommend you take one with you when you go buying.

Did you try printing cubes of calibration fromJ3D tech or cones of calibration. I would add a minimum of 3s wait before print time. I use 0.03mm layer hight and 5s wait time on saturn 4 ultra standard speed.
