What an amazing conversation. I'm sitting in a hotel room 800 miles from my 3D printer and desperate to feed the cravings. This discussion was perfect! News, knowledge and extremely valuable perspective. Thank you for doing this.
Just saw Ty's class a few days ago. I learned from about room temperature and resin . Because of that, I'm now putting in a digitally controlled heater in the enclosure as the resin printer is in a basement room. Heating the enclosure is MUCH cheaper than using an electric heater to maintain room temperature.🙃 Subscribed to TableFlip Foundry a couple days ago, and just clicked the subscribe button for your channel.
@@3DMusketeers Be sure to add protection to defend against a runaway heater or locked up temperature indication / failed sensor. That can happen with any electrically heated device. I work in industry on process controls and over the years, the number of devices that failed and caused problems because the single feature built in for control failed is surprising to most people. (Especially a single digital or relay output that froze in the on position when the reading locked up)
Just bought a resin printer and the only model I tested was Cones of Calibration. In lychee didn't change any setting, and twice it failed, only the 1st milimiter printed/stucked to the plate. What caused this? Thx
Likely a lack of proper exposure. It should all be outlined in the videos and documentation for the cones themselves. Do also make sure everything is level and of course, do not pour resin down the drain :)
Hey guys. So I printed this model. Started with 2.5 exposure time. One fail cone succeeded to connect. Changed it to 2.0. Success cones failed. Changed to 2.2. One success cone failed. Now before I print again. Do I only need to change the exposure time or I need to print something else?

I swear, sometimes when I hear people complaining about time, I picture them literally squatting in front of the printer and just watching it work. Just start the print and go work on something else, or do something else.
@@3DMusketeers It's ok to check from time to time of course, depending on the print size. But for something so small like the cone, it would be impossible on most printers to see if it prints or not. I use a Photon X, and wouldn't be able to see anything because of the vat.
Grant, you should inform people concerned about dimensional accuracy about the difference between accuracy and the number of digits on a digital caliper. (Resolution vs accuracy). I constantly have to tell people, with the instrumentation calibration work I do, that resolution and accuracy are NOT the same. Some companies just add extra decimals to make you "think" the device is more accurate when it isn't. Here's an example, one company's device displays temperature in 0.01 degrees resolution when their actual accuracy is 1.2 degrees. Great marketing scam.

Yep! We are working on a product called The Politician which will have a heater and filter combo in it :)

Thermistor in the chamber and a resetting thermal fuse on the heat spreader.
i watched the whole thing!
Awesome, thank you!
Excellent video! Super informative. Good stuff!
Thanks Seth!
great episode as always! im currently in the process of printing the cones of calibration :)
Thanks Ryan! Same here actually! Curious to see how over exposed I have been ha ha
On the screen survival time vs heated vat topic, anycubic's attempt to shift to DLP might be worth a mention.
I mean maybe? The cost is pretty high. DLP is nice because it's effectively forever

I'd keep trying. Maybe 2.3, 2.25 I don't know. It's so specific, even temperature can change it.

Sometimes I will. Other times I'm watching for failures

very fair!

We can try, but I doubt people would listen?
@@3DMusketeers They will when they have a client that complains about dimensional deviations because they used a cheap arse digital caliper.😉
Screw it, let's just buy cmm's for everyone loll
