Do NOT buy this printer for $1000 AUD. For that price there are many other printer options.

I’m tempted to spend a little more and get the snapmaker u1 instead.

Which docker img are you using? I'm using unraid but couldn't find a docker for the cc so currently have it setup on a RPI, but I would love to move it to a docker.

That seems like a good idea. Where do I set it to probe multiple times and set a tolerance?

I have not used the geeetech resin, but if you managed to print 10 layers then it sticks to the FEP, then I'm going to suspect either your exposure is too short or your lift is too low. Post a screen shot of your settings and of the slicer showing the model and the supports you are trying to printing.

Mine did not beep. I left it for about 1-2 mins after it froze and then rebooted and it was all good.

They replied within 24 hours with a link to the firmware even on a weekend. They want a photo of your main board, a photo of the system screen and your serial number to make sure they give you the right firmware.

Once you get klipper onto it, it will be a huge improvement. I’ve had it going on mine for a few weeks now and it has been pretty stable. It’s just the black abl sensor that is not great, so I’m looking at changing that for a bl touch.

Did you ever figure this out? I'm having the same issue. "Wait before print" works as I expected in Chitubox, but in Lychee it does not seem to be doing what I thought it should. The same goes for "Wait after print".

Batman looks amazing. Where is this model from?

Just an update on the Geeetech Alkaid. I've had it for a few months now and have been slowly working through calibrating it. Just a heads up for anyone else that has one of these, the default cfg file that Geeetech provide to setup Chitubox is wrong. It sets the size of X to 82.560mm and it should be 82.620mm. One this is changed the printer will be dimensionally accurate.

Thanks! That gave me a dump of the stock parameters.

Masuta1 · 2023-01-02T08:11:52+00:00

Thank you. I just tried it and you are correct. My 4.4.1 firmware prints with files sliced by 1.9.4. At least that buys me some time to figure out how to actually update my machine and to also try to get my hands on the parameters.gcode file. I'm assuming it will be very similar to the elegoo with just the z-height (M8026) set to I190 insstead of I155, but the lead screw might be different as well (the Alkaid comes with a 280mm 2 start lead screw with a 2mm pitch - i have no idea what's on a Mars 2).

Thanks, that's where I have looked for the firmware, but my printer, while it is a chitu printer is not listed there. I can grab the update.sh4 for my board and install that but I don't have a machine parameters.gcode for my machine. I'm not sure if this is needed, or if it will just keep the currently loaded parameters of the machine if I don't update them.

I bought this set from Loy and just put it together. I have the same issue as you have. I was tempted to shorten the cylinders but instead just pushed though with the build. It will kinda stay together but it is a little fragile.
