Sticks are here. Delayed a day so there were a couple doa's. Could have been much worse. 2 out of 16 are for sure gone. And 2 are a strong may not make it.
Hopeful on the others.
Ps dead coral water really smells bad.

It smells bad, yep.

Can any of you make up one of these resin packer kits? All i really need is the plunger piece. Cost?

Fill with RODI while you pour it in then tap it on the counter. I used to use a plunger but the water method seems to pack it tighter(I have less left over) and is less messy. Just throwing it out there.

Stoney's been printing these for the SBB crowd for the past week or two as a matter of fact.

Never heard of this method. Thanks for the tip. I will see if I can find a video!

Came home from the Man's house. Lost another bargain frag and one of the nice ones appears to be on the way out. I wish I knew why I can't have nice things. Will test tomorrow. Maybe time to order some gfo.

I have 3 black ones ready to ship

My funnel screws on and has a lip to keep resin out of the thread.

Aha. Now I get it. That is sweet and even less messy than the water method. Send me a PM with info please if you make them to sell.

I just refilled mine and should have taken pictures, but it's a lot cleaner and easier than the pound on the counter method.

Just a smidge, over 600 print jobs since I got the printer, a lot of knick knacks and stuff for the kids too.

I thought about you and Sam, right now I'm printing at almost 400mm/s with good results. Still tweaking things though, might push it faster yet.

Nice speed! Eclipses mine by a long shot. Is that PLA or PETG?
Even though I can design & print them, I actually just use my TitebondIII wood glue to pack my resin.
I really need to get more products up on the site.

PETG, I have PETG dialed in pretty well and actually print better with it than PLA.

Maybe it's the brand of PLA, 2 hours into a print then a corner lifts.

I made some custom hanging frag racks and stand recently too. It has been loads of fun.

Nem guards, filter cups, toys for the kids... You know how it goes...
