Doesn't work well with Phrozen Sonic Mini

This resin doesn't work well with my Phrozen Sonic Mini printer. Other resins I've used (4kg as of summer 2020) worked well with a 'bake' of 2.2 seconds per layer; This result gives less than 50% success, although rafts usually take 60 seconds to build (I like strong rafts). Ktuhu was set to 2.5 seconds per shift, Rafts to 60 seconds, and the round bit model (MTG life counter to collect) was set to 3 seconds per shift, Rafts to 60 seconds. You can see Cthulhu in the model. that sometimes the rafts are taken down and sometimes the rafts are built but the model body is not. Unfortunately, this resin also adheres to the bottom of the cymbal and not the metal build plate, which means *any* print requires me to remove and drain the cymbal, and then separate the resin that's stuck to it. I repeat: no other resin I have tried so far does this, including Elegoo and Phrozen resins. Yes, I shake the resin. Yes, temperatures are within acceptable limits (Los Angeles winters are mild). Higher rating seconds per shift to see if it works there while building rafts. If you're building on a slower printer, this might work for you; I won't find out. Although it is somewhat used (about 1/2 because I kept trying) I will try to get a refund. This resin is definitely not worth the $4-7 I saved even with a 50% bounce rate as that would result in a $12.50 loss (and a bounce rate over 50%). .

Pros
  • High quality materials and low odor
Cons
  • Only available in white
