Hello everyone!
Thanks for letting me join this group.
Just few words about myself, I am artist and animator, I have started playing table top miniature games and I wanted to create something for it. So I've learned Blender software, designed more than 60 unique token designs so far (there will be 91 in total) and I have started using Anycubic photon printer five months ago, done more than probably 50+ prints, and I am very happy about it. The quality is stunning, even in comparison to high end SLA printers for £4000, this £400 little DLP printer does the same quality and fits my needs. And hopefully it will help me to start my small business.
BUT I am having some issues with resin itself.
For black resin in black plastic bottle, I can give the best score 10/10 and feedback on Amazon for each bottle, but I have just received black resin in brown bottle again, 2 prints so far and again I am having same issues, last bottle over 40 hours wasted(one print takes more than 4 hours with cleaning, washing, bed lvling and so on), and practically £44 wasted, my time as well, so I can give only 0/10 score.
Now, I have done plenty printings, over 1500 tokens for table top games, used over 6l of resin. I am planning to do much much more. I am also looking forwards to buy several more Anycubic Photon printers, but the black color resin in brown bottles makes me look for other alternatives.
Possibly I am doing something wrong, but I have tried so many different options and configurations. Basically, I get bad prints, as last layers about a quarter of object is squashed a little, and I get egg shape tokens instead of round. I can clearly see difference in resin, as black color resin from black bottles is more matte black with a bit of blue shade and a bit transparent. The other black resin from brown bottles is more glossy and looks like black tire rubber material, plus it's more smelly. So I can only assume there's some different properties in them? And it's a random when buying this black color resin, either in brown or in black plastic bottles, and so far I had 2 brown and 4 black, where 2 brown game me failures in printing.
Has anyone had similar issues? Or, can someone tell me if there are different properties in resins and what could I possibly do. Also I had suspicions that room temperature changes could have had an impact on prints, but I tried different bottle lack resins on the same day, and same results, one goes perfectly and another bad. I am really out of options.
I have attached an image with prints.
