That was close ?

things I learned today:
1 - always tighten the hold down screws on the resin vat ?

2 - if you have uncured resin on your nitrile gloves and then go outside = instant chemical burn ?

So I have a concern with my 3D prints - after a print job I'll notice that there is a thin layer of partially-cured resin on the FEP, which I can scrape up without too much issue, and I will sometimes have thin sheets/flaps of the same on the models that I print, though neither of these things really seem to affect the print quality. Is this normal, or do I have some settings to mess around with?

Safe to say I’ve had better days, bought a second vat it leaked a little think this has loosened the vat, what do I need to fix this? Has anyone had this happen before?
Thanks

Looking for help on supports. I currently use Siraya Blu for most of my projects but it also allows for some flexibility so the item doesn't shatter. When printing large objects like this (large base of a figure) after hollowing i'd like to support it from the inside to make it more rigid. Is there any kind of auto-support setting for inside to help with that?

All finished and painted ships :) makes a mighty fine view after all the hard work of modeling, printing and painting.

Printed on my Anycubic Photon

Just received photon from amazon uk and over the moon with it. At the same time I order 1000ml of black resin ( no grey left). It has a date on the side for the December 2019. Is that normal for such a sort shelf life?

What firmware are you guys using? I see that there is a 4.2.3 on the Photonsters site - is that the latest one?

Anycubic Photon or Anycubic Photon S?

So I bought a Photon and, after waiting an unreasonably long amount of time to actually receive it (which is unrelated, but adds to my frustration), I started printing with it. The quality was great, everything was working like I expected it to, but then within three days of getting the printer I'm having a Z-axis malfunction, where it just won't move.

I've looked online and have seen a lot of similar issues, but in all of them the printer's fans and LCD are also malfunctioning. In my instance the fans and LCD work fine, and it's just the Z axis that won't move. I've tried power cycling and updating the firmware to no avail.

It might be relevant to note that I had a print going while I was out and about, and when I returned the print appeared to be partially-complete, still attached to the build plate, and the build plate was all the way up at the top of the Z axis.

I have relatively little experience in troubleshooting hardware, so how would one go about figuring out what the issue is?
