The peculiar world of 3D printing. Printers and CAD in a world of Craft Knifes and Pencils.

I might as well start the topic I've spoken about in the purchases topic. If admin want to do the fancy thing where they move posts to different threads then I think what was discussed in the purchases topic would make a nice start to this one. 

Anyhow, in the mean time...

Amazon sells lots of resin, search for '405 UV resin'. I but mine from there but generally stick to grey as I find I get better results than with the coloured stuff.

I'll need to try some calibration files at some point, My really big problem right now is this Geeetech Alkaid only recognises .ctb files, even sliceing .stl files and saving them as .ctb files it wont print them,??? Wrong resolution apparently, Anyhoo, I tried reprinting that dragon again, Turns out there was a screen saver over the LCD's but there was a felt pen mark on that, Guess that created a weaknest in the first layer causing the first print to fail.

Joe.
