About this deal

For better Z-axis stability, the printer is equipped with double linear sliders over which the buildplate moves by means of a lead screw. Each additional layer is fused on to the previous with a UV light as the platform rises out of the tank of liquid resin.

My workflow boils down to importing the STL model, orientating it to minimise the amount of supports required on the seen surfaces, adding the required supports and then exporting and printing. The Elegoo Saturn 2 is driven by a pair of linear rails along with a nice thick lead screw for a very sturdy build platform, which is necessary to produce detailed prints at such a high resolution. The sandblasted build platform guarantees the highest possible adhesion of the print - the risk of detached, unfinished prints is minimised in this way. So, with the holiday approaching, I resolved to tackle it with a fresh heart and unbox it after Christmas. Consumables (activated carbon) are not warranted, as well as human damage, disassembly is not covered by the warranty.It also gives more surface area for supports to hold on so the model is less likely to fall during printing. I gave it another rinse in the rinse tank in hopes that the water would now be able to get into the nooks to help remove any additional resin. This item will be shipped directly from the UK 3D Print Monkey warehouse and should arrive within 1-5 working days.

I'm looking forward to creating larger projects with this - it's time I learnt how to paint models with more skill! Once it is sliced, a Save button will appear, which will allow you to save the sliced file onto the USB stick that came with the printer. After that, I dipped it in water briefly and used the brush included with the water washable resin to loosen up any more resin residue. There are two pairs of latex gloves and two surgical style masks for personal protection, but you will probably want to get some higher quality masks and additional gloves for working with resin. To refuse these cookies, please follow the instructions below under the heading "How can I control cookies?I feel like a broken record saying this now, but every package I get from Elegoo is extremely well packed. Resin LCD printers reproduce 3D models by curing a single layer of resin onto the underside of a submerged build plate.

A fairly large workspace of 219x123x250mm and 225x129mm build plate will open up new creative possibilities for larger models or batch printing requirements. Just insert the USB memory stick into the USB port on the right side of the printer, select the Print option from the main menu, open the “ELEGOO SATURN 2 Rook Model for Printing Test” folder, and select the Rook Test Print Model. During testing, I noticed that there was still a lingering resin odor that wasn’t completely eliminated. It doesn't matter whether it's a large-format model or several small objects - with a build volume of 219 x 123 x 250 mm, there are hardly any limits to your creativity!Whilst printing the rooks (or anything else for that matter) you're shown the the time spent printing so far, estimated print time remaining, and current layer height on the display.
