My 14 hour print completed without incident, with just a small amount of stringing. Sadly it was wasted because I had full supports switched on and it filled the air ducts with support material that I can't remove. Piggin' 'ell.

Post cleaning up. Just a shame that I can't use it. I have just started another one printing, so hopefully that will be OK.

To suit the Micro Swiss direct drive extruder, which is not compatible with the original fan housing. So before you can get the direct drive working, you have to get the Bowden tube extruder reliable so that you can print the housing to upgrade!

See above! I just like to brand things that I print.

Does this mean you have a micro swiss now?

I have. I tried to cancel it but was too late, so I am contemplating keeping it. I need the fan housing to be right though of course. ABS printing perfectly is my ultimate goal.

First print on the resin printer.
Couple of Festool systainer clips
Bit of a problem with surface finish on the supported side, but that's a "me" problem, rather than the machine - gravity works in the opposite direction on these machines.
I printed these at 0.1mm layer height, and considering that is 10x thicker than the minimum (and thus 10x faster to print), I'm hard pushed to see the layers.
Certainly good enough for my "saved from a skip" systainers...

I love my Resin printer, its great for these sort of things. What Resin are you using?

It's a "hex3d" model: you have to join the patreon / subscribe to access them.
My avatar is also one of theirs - I've also posted a few other pics over the summer:
They release about ?10? models a month - not all baby Yoda ones, but usually starwars/SF related.
Well worth the £9 a month, IMO, considering MrsEgg collects them - and they were costing her anything up to £80
each (as hand-printed custom pieces).(The " Scream " one is going to be her birthday present - that's covered half the cost of the printer already.
