3d printing   Leave a comment

So switched to siraya tech navy grey resin and that’s been really good as it was on sale. Found the resin recommended on various sites . The company provided recommended settings for my printer which was good and these have been great in practice needing no changes.

Yesterday though found a leak under the vat so had to change the vat film yet again and the LCD screen protector. Fortunately the resin did not spread far which saved the printer !

Now I am printing again and have way too much stuff awaiting painting.

Printed the largest pieces yet in the form of two fantastic barges for the osgiliath orcs to attack over the river . These are from the printing goes ever on patreon.

I am going through a lot of the vat film and it is quite laborious to change as well as being difficult to do whilst wearing gloves so I end up having to clean it then wash my hands and risk exposure to resin . This time using the new silicone spatula the film appeared pristine but must have had a whole in it any way .
