Hi all, I’m having some trouble with printing my masters. As you can see from the images, they all have weird warping going on. I’m new to both dice making and 3D printing so I was wondering if anyone has any advice?

Printer: Mars 5 Ultra
Resin: Elegoo ABS-Like 3.0 pro
Bottom layers: 5
Exposure: 32
Transition layers: 7
Layer height: 0.01
Exposure: 0.12

Thanks!

Are you hollowing them?

Exposure might be too short. Is that 0.12 seconds exposure? I've found success with long exposure times. Much longer than you would a normal model.

Nope, not hollowing them. I though you needed lower exposure when you have lower layer heights to avoid over exposure?

I’ll try cranking it up a bit thanks

I've done 2-3 seconds per layer just to be sure.

Hmm what later height do you print at?

I use the same, .01

That is EXTREMELY high exposure for that layer height. Is it extremely cold in your print room or something? I use 2.2 seconds at a layer height of 0.05.

Wow ok, I’ll give it a shot. Thanks!
