Cheers man, this video was made for people like me, saved it fir future reference. It's bad enough trying to decide on what printer to get in the long run sometimes, let alone resin types, slicing softwares, how to use such software, and of course all the settings for supports etc etc AND trouble shooting/ printfails. And this is why I'm subbed to channels like you. Oh and awesome painting tutorials. 😁

I'm new to 3D modelling I'll try these settings on auto supports today!. I'm using lychee I love it but have this chitibox and anycubic slicer but lychee works better for me but trying them all to see what's best

Thanks for this, it definitely helped me a lot. I would orientate my models so the supports would be on the mating surfaces. I did this because I was afraid the supports would take away detail from the surfaces that would be seen. The problem was that my models would never fit together well. This video makes me more confident about placing supports everywhere!

I have been a B3Dserk patreon for 3 months and next month I will finally buy my resin 3d printer (0 experience). This helps a lotttttttttttttttt, thank you so much! I was planning to use the files from the pre supported chitubox directory hahaha. Just one doubt when I was "playing" with the pre supported files there were 2 directories "50" and "100", with different sizes, which are the scales for each one, plus are the non supported files?

@TheCreativeCollector

2 жыл бұрын

Great to hear! I'm glad this helps. So, Wicked or B3dserk usually has all of their models in 1/6 scale and busts at 1/4 scale. So, I think the 50/100 thing is if you want them full size versus half size. Reach out to those guys and they can tell you for sure.

That's somewhat normal, but of they're too big then check the settings on the base of the support going on the model. You might be able to tweak that a bit.

I usually don't have a problem with it but I look over everything first

Do you find yourself adding extra supports when you use auto or do you trust it mostly to do it’s job? I haven’t used chitubox, I use lychee and every time i just use auto supports I seem to get a failed print and it doesn’t seem to detect a lot of islands. Maybe I need to swap to chitubox and give it a go!

@TheCreativeCollector

I usually don't have to add any extra supports. Most of the time I take away a few.

Awesome tips. It’s crazy how you never use light supports lol. Do you ever get failures using auto supports with only medium? I can’t imagine not using heavies to anchor and lights for details.

This video is great, I'm having quite a few fails lately and I believe it's because I haven't figured out the best orientation and the support settings. My question here is, you print HUGE models, but for someone who prints in a sligh smaller scale, do you still use the same standard supports?

@TheCreativeCollector

Yes I use the same supports for all models. The only thing I do differently is I add more density for larger heavier pieces.

Hey bro, great video, however... I always get small little dents from the support tips. You pull them off effortlessly, but when I try to do that, I get dents in my resin print, which I have to putty. Very annoying. Any tips for that?

@TheCreativeCollector

Жыл бұрын

I get those sometimes, but I can usually sand them away with my Gtool. It happens a bit with heavy supports, so I use medium most of the time. I dialed down my exposure time a little and it helped with this a lot. Now they basically just fall off.

I’d like to see the support contact points close up. When I use mediums, even with a contact size of .40mm and a depth of .10 they show like crazy and require a lot of clean up. Any idea why? Thanks for the video.

I use 0 penetration on all supports. Consider the time you are exposing perhaps it’s a little too long and it’s baking the supports? Resins are very different too of course. I mainly use Syria Tech (Fast/Tenacious 25% mix) and Phrozen 4K. I do use a little hot water for about 30 seconds and they come off super easy. I will sometimes use a heavy support on the initial build plate contact for large heavier pieces to ensure they don’t pull off. If there are dimples I apply a small amount of resin, ultraviolet flashlight and a quick sand. And as mentioned orientation can eliminate a lot of cleanup. Hope that helps!
