      Dude you gonna love it. Make sure to check level both mine needed to be level despite them saying it’s level from factory. They were a fraction off. I like it to be tight on those papers. Then also set the temp to stay at 30c dunno why but I heard it helps it to stay within that sweet spot temp range. Other then that it’s so good once you’ve got your resin settings dialled. I swear to god mine has not missed a beat. I have two running every day and they’ve both not once given me a minute of trouble. Best experience so far with a machine. The build plate threw me off at first but now I like it! It also doesn’t drip resin when you take out the prints. I honestly can’t say enough good things about this machine from my experience

    Rinse your prints under hot water, they will effortlessly detach from the build plate, and the supports will follow suit. Direct the water precisely to avoid any distortion to the actual print.

      ​@@Groundeffected I noticed that you utilized a trowel to remove your print from the plate. If you rinse it under hot water, you can use your hand to pull it away easily. Using a trowel may potentially damage the surface of the plate, just a friendly suggestion.

      @Groundeffected  Před 6 měsíci +1

      @@SimplyAlteringMaterials you know when these resin printers first started coming out we were sent sand paper to sand the plate for better adhesion. Don’t worry about the plate dude. I scrape it after every print too just to take off any potential bits from the raft that might be snapped off( usually not a single piece) and I shove that thing back in and print again. Haven’t washed a single build plate in over 3 years printing.

      Never ever said I was trying to. But the Saturn couldn’t print in my back room currently so for me I’d rather buy 50 of these with my own money than one of the saturns that currently would not work in my back room due to lack of heating. It’s a simple tiny cheap addition that takes the whole printer into a completely different territory. I don’t care if you can print better when the temperature is controlled and in optimal range. Gktwo does that for me. Just that feature on its own makes any other printer currently without one obsolete. Last year I spent an astronomical amount heating my studio to be able to print and still suffered failures due to temperature, this year I’ve not had to manually heat a single print and have not had a single failure on any of my heated machines.
