The final result of yesterday's print:
-
@PeteH1969 I rub the plate with IPA , and dry the plate before doing a new print. @Jo NZ, I changed the printer firmware before I changed the screen. Sébastien
-
Pete, The support base is peppered with 2 mm diametre holes. Sébastien

Thanks a lot! S.

Hi, I did it twice. I use Voxeldance Tango (I used it before my problems, and I have used files made with it to print the parts you see). S.

I have made a set of engines for Sanger Shackleton. I used to print 2 engines and the outer nacelles in one go. I've changed the LCD screen (it died on me unexpectedly) and the nFEP film. And I get that: Same resin, same heater setting, same parameters... What did I do wrong this time ? TIA, S.
-
You Philistine you. It will be a 1/48 Stranraer. And this is not a wish. It's a fact. S., still busy with that bloody Shackleton engine nacelle

That's fabulous. Sébastien -
1:48 Fairchild Republic Thunderbolt II - Warthog by GWH
Sebastien replied to Greg B's topic in The Rumourmonger
An A-10A is supposed to be released after that one IIRC. S. -
I've decided to use the squishy thing between my ears for a change. I have baroque results when I print the nacelle without the gear doors. So I made a chamfer around the gear doors (to ease the separation between the doors and the nacelle) and combined them to the nacelle. This should work much better... S.
-
Hi, Thanks to both. There's no bulkhead. I've added support, it's in the printer right now. S.
-
Hi folks, My latest blooper: What can cause this shift (seen inside the part too)? Oh, and there's another shift just around the gridlike stuff on the sides of the part... TIA, S.
-
With bigger holes on the support, everything prints. BUT. Suction cup effect ruins the cowling front. So I added a 1 cm shift in one support and printed a pair. I'll go by pairs from now on. And one thing that went as smoothly as I could hope: So thanks to all who answered, put up with my stubborness, withstood my being foolish, and who were generally much nicer than I should have hoped for. You're great, guys! S.

Hi, I've switched to JamgHe Standard Plus Resin 10k. It's cheaper, and I haven't had a single mishap (well, I've had some, but they were my fault without exception).

Boeing B-52D Stratofortress - 1/48 - Sanger - 3D parts
Sebastien replied to Sebastien's topic in Work in Progress - Aircraft
Thanks a lot Adrian. I'd like to build it with removable wings, and store it in a crate (with belly supports). It should rest on its wheels only at model shows. Cheers, S.- 25 replies

Boeing B-52D Stratofortress - 1/48 - Sanger - 3D parts
Sebastien replied to Sebastien's topic in Work in Progress - Aircraft
I submitted the parts to the world famous Yefim Gordon's book test. That is, I put Gunze bottles under the wheel axles, and put Yefim Gordon's Fulcrum book on top of the parts (all 6 lbs of it). It holds.- 25 replies

Boeing B-52D Stratofortress - 1/48 - Sanger - 3D parts
Sebastien replied to Sebastien's topic in Work in Progress - Aircraft
I did a test print of the main landing gear. It's far from finished, but I wanted to know about it's strength. There are a couple of design blunders, but it's not that bad. Now, I have to glue the wheels and see what's what.- 25 replies

Hi Ian, I replaced the FEP filter with an nFEP one, cleaned everything and sent the single engine set to print: total success now. I fail to see where the extensions I made as supports (only for the engine cowling and the spinner parts) are a problem. There are ten 4mm diameter half circle holes thet go through them at the bottom, ten more at the top for the cowling, 6 top/bottom for the spinner. The only bit I have succion with is the front of the cowling, and it's rather visible on the surface of the part.
-
Hi, There are supports for the big parts. And there are half circular holes (2mm radius) all around them.
-
Sure. I haven't changed the settings since I calibrated the printer using the cones of calibration. The single set I have printed succesfully: The set I'm failing to print with the same resin as for the print above: I'm thinking the resin sticks too much to the FEP. S.
-
Well, even the plate with a single engine set doesn't print. I'll be sulking for a couple of days if you don't mind. S.
-
I clean the vat with the printer function, filter the resin when bottling it back, clean the FEP filter with alcohol, clean the plate with alcohol too, let everything dry... S.
-
I have done (mostly) that to get to the single engine set. The single engine set prints without a hitch (cf. first picture of my previous post). I'd love to understand why the second picture happened.
