Resin 3D Printer Technical Help

I like that it has a little flexibility but an trying to print a long, thin tube and it’s “warping” a bit, ie: the tube is flattening somewhat and becoming oblong.

Any other resin that has a little give but prints better?

hey @Tiki welcome!

Chris P from the team will reply to you by tomorrow with some info - hes used this material many times before.

What printer are you printing this on? What are your settings?

Thanks

Thanks for the reply!

That tube is supposed to be straight. I just separated the part from the base and it’s as soft as a wet noodle!

Tiki,

Tough X, like the flexible X needs heavy supports and other orientation techniques as per their article here: How to process and choose the best flexible 3D-printing resin?
