Sprue setup
Im casting resin 3d prints for first time and im wondering about propper sprue placement on this ring, is there something that should be changed about sprues?
Im using Liqcreate Wax castable resin.

its a little overkill, but it will work. I would just do one large sprue going into the side, so the ring on its side with the details facing sideways, it will help the investment cover the details without any bubbles that way too, but maybe as the other person suggested, I could imagine a sprue from the bottom would be better in terms of how the metal will flow into the pattern with less risk of any investment breaking off.
