Usage
The leveling card should be near the machine and contains basic build platform leveling instructions.
I was told that ChiTu Box is bad at supports, and to do them in PrusaSlicer (you'll need to find/use/make a resin printer profile) then export your unsliced but supported model as STL for slicing in ChiTu Box.
Below is the usage guide, but can basically be summarized as:
- BE CAREFUL not to damage the 4k LCD screen or FEP plastic film!
- level the build platform
- turn on / heat up cabinet, close doors!
- fill tank with resin choice/color/amount
- software, do your supports/slicing
- cabinet warmed up now?
- insert stick, hit go, leave for a while, check in occasionally for obvious fails
- the build platform won't fit in the Curing station (Anycubic Wash and Cure Machine) ID:160
- so remove your prints without damaging the build platform and toss them into the basket, see video ^
- pour unused resin back into bottle - the tank holding stand is good for this
- clean out any remnants from the tank, being careful not to damage the FEP plastic film
- CLEAN UP AFTER YOURSELF
- Think you're done cleaning? THINK AGAIN!!
