    Never even thought of that being an issue. Resin getting under there. Feel like my Mono X got outdated pretty quickly lol

      @@ItsBrody It's a bigger issue on these printers because there's a big gap. On the other printers I can still get underneath the LCD so I still put a piece of tape in between the LCD and the VAT.

    Great trick
    I am currently working on a TPU "skirt" for the build plate, because cleaning it is such a pain in the neck...
    But if someone already has something, I am not going to re-invent cool water...😂
    Anyway, eager to see the next tip.

    in the google docs you write about levelling the build-late, i don't need to do that for saturn 4 ultra right, just make sure the printer level with a spirit level

      I have a mill that I was tempted to try this with but worried that I'd still need some kind of 'spring' for the auto leveling cycle. Glad I'll get the opportunity to see a working solution!

    Love it, my Saturn 4 Ultra is arriving next week. I might even think about 3D printing something for that issue.

    0:13 wow is that some kind of bandaid fix to the heater's layerline issue? hahaha i'd love to see the video about that one :)
    FYI my personal theory was that the heater was heating one side of the tilting mechanism causing one side to expand and shrink somehow, or maybe even causing the z axis to expand and shrink

      @@Katobase-u6t Oh I've got all the data on that. I need to make a follow up about it.
      The heaters temp sensor is the incorrect type. It gets too hot, then too cold forcing the print itself to shrink and grow causing the banding.

    Great tip! What is the red mod on the heater?

    • @J3DTech
      @J3DTech  Місяць тому

      @@TheTuorgustavo That was to help the heater from causing as many banding issues. It helped but it didn't permanently solve it. Unfortunately, there isn't a way to prevent that heater from overheating the chamber and allowing it to undercool and then overheating it again creating banding issues.
      However, with the mod, if you print short things like minis, you won't have an issue. It's only an issue on taller objects again that is with the mod. Without the mod you get issues pretty quick
