Aspect Ratio Changing Mid Print

I was doing a print today and it seems like my aspect ratio or something changed mid print. Have done quite a few prints, first time this has happened.

Re: Best resin for miniatures

Sorry for taking so long to reply, didn't see your post until yesterday. The FunToDo Industrial is much stronger than the Maker Juice. In thinker parts it is quite hard, while still remaining flexible in very thin pieces. In a very thin spot on one model I can bend it past 90 and it will not break, ...

Calibrating Pigment Concentration

Hello, I am wondering what methods people have come up with for calibrating the amount of pigment they put in their resin. I have just been adding pigment to my resin until the printed parts look good, but this requires me to repeat the process every time I get more resin, and takes a time and resin...

Re: My new material for VAT

Do you have a general idea of when this will be ready, and how much it will cost? I am wondering if I should get some FEP so I can start printing sooner, or wait for this.

Quality Comparison

Hello, I just recently got my bottom up printer working, and wanted to see how the quality compares to others. I ran out of resin before getting the pigment tweaked perfectly (That's why the top didn't print), but I wanted to see how the quality of my printer compares to that of finely tuned ones, a...

Re: Best resin for miniatures

Thanks. I'm not sure how well paint would hold up on flexible models. Anyway, I bought the FunToDo Industrial blend, so I'll see how that works. I'll post back here with my findings, incase anyone else is interested.
