<![CDATA[SoliForum - 3D Printing Community — which project to start next?]]> https://www.soliforum.com/topic/10804/which-project-to-start-next/ Fri, 22 May 2015 16:56:05 +0000 PunBB <![CDATA[Re: which project to start next?]]> https://www.soliforum.com/post/96701/#p96701 got the SLA topdown printer all asembled and hooked up. Just got to raise the bed and slide the vat of resin in when it gets here. I think it's going to work out well. Ready for testing next week. I built it larger than needed so I go bigger or smaller. Using Creation Workshop software to run it.

This gave me an idea. I'm drawing up a design where you could have an sla/and filament feed printer. just with  a few adjustments. mostly a new style of bed.

I don't think it is. I believe you just dip the part down slightly then back up for the next layer.

I'm just going to put a window on it made out of the translucent red plexiglass for looks

This case isn't just to keep ambient UV away from the resin, an even more important purpose is to keep the UV from the projector inside the case and away from your eyes!

yes i do know about the eye protection for the people outside of the box but the question is what do you think has anyone made it a decorative piece?

A question I have about the core  xy design is : Is there stable firmware to run it since the math is different than repeat motors for the x and y.

I plan to use a smoothieboard and the smoothie firmware already has built in support for just about any printer configuration anyone has ever thought up (including core XY, delta, etc).

Y was talking to the developer of the beagle bones K9  cnc cape  the board is ready to go but no stable software to run it.
I noticed somewhere that was mention that marlin was dropping support for the core cnc  version of the firmware.
what  firmware do you plan to use .

I've been considering how i will build my sla printer i'm considering using the tantillus as a base for the case design. however most 3d printers i have seen show a orange or yellow case around it to help block uv from curing the resin prematurely. so i decided to experiment some on case design and this is an idea i came up with to make it a bit more decorative it will need work however  please elt me know what you think i'm using art neaveao design elements and designing in tinker cad for now

I stopped once I saw the carbon3D video since all I have left to build is a tension vat. I cant decide if I should try and build a continuous SLA printer or a traditional one with a flex vat/tilt mechanism. It would be nice to have someone else on here posting results.


Theres plenty of info on here and also plenty about the type of vat needed for continuous printing.
