- I Found this software quite unintuitive to use and thought i would make a tutorial to show you how to get the most out of it, it is actually very useful just a bit SpECiaL sometimes lol
I hope you enjoyed the video
Here is the link to the Great video that explains a lot of the differences between resin printing and FDM printing

I know you made it awhile back but I just recently bought a printer and found this video very helpful
Pay attention where you put the supports. It has to be closest to the part that is the most red. (((You want the support attached at the very first layer that will print on that part of the model))) ( That is the key) . If your support is a little off, you run the risk of nothing attaching there because the print started without a support there,
Thanks for a great video, keep them coming. Hi from Durban, getting my Saturn this week.
Thank you very much and happy printing
Thank you. This was EXACTLY the basic information I needed.
In the rotation portion, you mis identified the +- 90 degree buttons. They ARE relative to the current position, but the ABSOLUTE degree is just to the right of those, and as the Mew was sitting, it shows -48.00 degrees absolute. You could put that to zero (0) and it would sit flat on the plate.
Thanks this video has helped me alot. Knowing how to add supports. Big help
I’m glad I could help
is there a Beginner Beginner video....
😅
Thanks dude very nice educative video for beginner
this really is not a beginners guide.
only demonstrates software functions and advanced issues.
i thought that anyone know why its called a slicer and what is slicing
@@paulhunter123 the slicer Software, slices up the 3D image into lots of very thin slices, so that the 3d printer can print each slice one at a a time on top of each other
@@Ghryst thanks very much
Can't believe these clowns want $200 a YEAR for the pro version of this software!
The rest of the instruction is good, tho, especially where he warns us of the many frustrating pitfalls encountered with this otherwise featureless software. Zooming on the image is a pita to the extent that the frustration seems deliberately engineered into the software. Also, good explanations on the supports.
It's rare to find an instruction whereby the author warns, without bias or favor of the product being presented, of the poor design implementations so encountered, and this instructor mercilessly offers them in spades! By unrelentingly critiquing the bad design of the software, He lets the viewer know, to the viewer's relief, that it's the software designers -- and not the viewer, who the real idiot is...
Forgive my previous critiques about this video (below), but overall, helpful vid. Thanks!
I appreciate the feedback and hopefully it helped
great and all but how do you export this to your printer?
Since I don't see an answer, I'll give it a shot.
After your done in chitubox save it to the thumb drive and once you plug the thumb drive into the printer you should b able to see the different print files choose the one you want to print and hit play
Some of the newer machines you don't even have to use the thumb drives the have Bluetooth capabilities
Good stuff! I just purchased the Kingroon KP6 Mono Resin printer. I will arrive tomorrow so I’m pretty excited to start making things (I am a WW2 scale modeler). I appreciate the overview of Chitubox. If I am correct, I can’t create anything only edit a file and prep for printing with Chitubox. Correct?
That’s cool man you should post a video of a print🤟
Still good tutorial. Thx
I have a question. I got my object, and it does not render... there is a black screen and says no grams of material needed and everything is blank.... if i put supports, it only renders the supports.
Is there anyway to smooth out the models cuz I have the Goku model and it keeps coming out blocky while on blender it’s a different story
Thanks very good explanatory video i do have some crashes eather after i slice and im saving it to the tumbdrive it after couple seconds hops off chitubox and back to main screen on my pc i dont know why it doesn't just go on witout jumping off sliced and save file page.. If ye get what i mean? Cause comes up sometimes when is on thumbdrive it a unrecognised file i only know its good if pic of model pops on screen of printer i use the mars pro
Is it normal for chitubox to take forever on a slice?
Where do you get files for printing? Can you design your own?
I save it but my printer doesn't recognise it, its an elegoo saturn s, I saved it as .ctb and .cbddlp and the printer says there not recognised files
Check the characters in the filename. I noticed that mine will only recognize an underscore _ in the filename in order to "recognize" the file
there's a part of my model as dark blue, like it's silhouetted. this is different than the other half of my model that looks perfectly normal and is the light blue color. in other slicing programs it takes on a dark gray color, I've been trying to figure out what it is and why when I go to print it it's not printing out correctly can you help me?
It’s possible it’s an error with the model, try downloading auto desk mesh mixer and running a mesh repair to see if that fixes it, I think you can also load the file into prusa slicer and they can fix it and you can save the fixed file, that might help
@@bicutech2 thank you so much, I'll try that after I get done with work today
So how do u zoom in??
is this a guide or a review?
How do you upload a file from a different source?
You have to change the file type to .CTB in order to print the file
What number do you think I should have my bottom layer count on?
I usually use about 20
Howzit man. Watched the video an enjoyed it! My creality printer arrives tomorrow! I will use this same program too. I'm brand new to printing.. is there any way I can keep in contact if I get sick or need advice or help?
Thank you for the comment, I am also on tik tok with the same name so you can DM me there if you need help
@@bicutech2 okay thanks. I will do so👍
@@bicutech2 hey man. Quick update as I don't have tik tok. I got my printer and have printed a few small objects and what not. I drew up some squares and circles in solid works and printed them to get the shrinkage and what not. And I must admit. This little printer is pretty accurate when it comes to sizing and consistency. I even used a micrometer to measure and was still consistent. I followed your settings and what not from the video🤘👍
Hey that’s awesome, thank you for letting me know, happy printing :D
OMG why don't you guys do anything properly. SHOW the save function. This is the most frustrating process.
Is this really for beginners?
I think you need a new video for dummies please .
“Turns out its not open source code’... aaaaah...yeah.
Make it open source, or better, make other established codes... compatible with your hardware.🤨🦅🦅🦅👽🤜🏼🤛🏼🇦🇺🍀🍀🍀😘
I have to say...honestly I am NOT impressed. Even with a 3080 this....program....crashes far too much and is not very in tuitive
Jeebus... More tedium. Must you explain every detail of, for example, the resin menu? Must you tell us that the field to enter the price of the resin is the field in which one enters the price he paid for his resin?
Understand that 99.9% of us understand, intuitively, what most of these intuitive menus do.
We don't need to know that you're using a Creality, or that you're going to produce a Creality video soon.
The section on supports would have been much more helpful if you had talked in specifics about the angles, scales and distances over which support is effective. I just did auto-support on the supplied rook model and it added support to the lettering protruding less than a millimetre at 90 degrees. Does that really need support? In your example, you said that some overhangs were too extreme, but what is the criteria?
I just got one for Christmas and I tried using auto for supports, but it seems to only print the raft and then as it continues nothing else prints. Could it be an issue with the auto generate with the supports as you discussed in this video?
It is very possible however it is printer dependent, I’d recommend trying a different model and try manually adding support and see how it goes
I tried a different model and added the supports myself. I have it printing now so we will see how it goes.
Here is where I'm having problems, it won't open the files I can't drag and drop I can't even click open then click the file I had to copy everything to the file on the you drive that said slicer software, once I did that it would at least let me access or rather the files would at least show up to be clicked on but then when I would open them it would just say wrong file I managed to get one of the files to actually open and show up but other than that it wouldn't open any of the files I don't get it if this helps at all I've downloaded them from 3d cults.
My name is Giovanni Giorgio but everybody calls me BICU Tech
why is it called slicing and what is slicing ?
Think of slicing as adding a ream of paper to an office printer. Slicing determines what sections of the part are printed on each layer. i.e....each layer of paper
Great video thank you.
I got my Creality Mage Halot this week, and I'm still struggling to get this slicing software supplied with it downloaded, registered and actually functional! Your clear explanation of the shortcomings and pitfalls is proving very helpful.
Suggestion: stop swirling so much with the mouse cursor, it gives me vertigo, lol!
is anyone else having some issues even getting this stupid software to just download. i cant even get it to do that. its so FRUSTRATING!!!
Hello, as far as I know you have to create an account with chitubox to be able to download it, if you still can’t after that then I’m not too sure
Why didn't you show the auto support function???
he did
Hey Bicu, are you South African? I can hear the accent. Can I use methylated spirits to rinse my models or should I rather use ethanol?
Yes you can use methylated spirits, it is actually just treated alcohol anyway so it’s not very different to ethanol
@@bicutech2 where do you get your resin?
Super helpful vid mate, thanks
Not a problem, thank you
Must you tell us what left click and right clicking of the mouse does? Are we so indolent that we cannot determine this for ourselves? Important things we need to know: how to import files that may be used with this slicer software...
