Update* Thanks to the efforts of many helpful people and experimentation a few settings can help with this technique. Set your lift speed somewhere between 40-60. When placing supports try 10mm off the build plate instead of the default 5mm. If you are having trouble getting your supports straight you can change the setting for the light supports > Middle tab > Angle to 0.02 (you can set it to zero but it will default to 0.02)

@miguelmassvieira 3 года назад

hello why 40-60 lift speed? is not too much? thanks

@ImagiNationLabswithRevChumley 3 года назад

@@miguelmassvieira I use 40 personally, but every machine is different, FEPs are at different tightness so you'll have to experiment

@Oldmanmatt 3 года назад

@@miguelmassvieira So, most printers default profiles are with a 100-150 lift speed. THAT is too fast. Common thought is a lift and bottom lift of 40-60 pulls the print up slower, allowing the FEP to flex but not RIP the print off, which could ruin the supports and casuse warped or failed prints.

As somebody with no 3d printing experience, this is very fancy and very interesting witchcraft

@ImagiNationLabswithRevChumley 4 года назад

I didn’t mention this in the video, as it was more about the printing process and supports, but I’m getting questions on post curing. Make sure to post cure your dice with a UV source (sun, nail lamp etc) before polishing. I would also suggest letting your masters off gas for a minimum of a week (2 is better) before attempting to mold in platinum silicone. (See my inhibitx vs napthta video). Also you may get a small about of light bleed on the base tip, but this is easily removed when polishing, if your faces are flat and even a little extra material on the tip is actually a good thing. Better something that is easily sanded off than warped faces.

@wickedlittletongue 3 года назад

Wow thank you for this! I've been struggling for over a month to get dice successfully printed and this method is PERFECT. I read through the comments and the 10mm supports and lowering the lift speed made all the difference in the world. I also found that the islands in the numbers were pretty much inevitable especially on the d100, so I added extra support anchors to the inner part of the zeroes and other islands and that fixed the issue I was having with failed edges and landed me a perfect print. I finally have perfectly printed masters all thanks to this video and your wonderful instructions!

@Oldmanmatt 3 года назад

Thanks for this. I got into printing via resin in Dec 2019, after FDM since May 2016. I love it, and one of the first things I wanted to print were dice. However, they failed miserably - rough edges, etc, and I gave up on it. I dont play, or pain (or sand or polish), but something about perfecting the process drives me. Today I decided to try it again, and a quick search gave me this video. Pretty cool. I dont think I'll ever get to the level of mastering, molding, etc - but it's super cool to learn. I'm going to give it a shot over the weekend!! Subbed based on this video, thanks!

@JosephFerris 4 года назад

Great video! I was getting frustrated both trying to use autosupports and using autosupports with manual editing in both Chitubox and Prusaslicer. All I was getting was a lot of misprints and grief cleaning failed prints off of the FEP. This approach works great. For what it is worth, I pulled down a trial of Formware 3D. Once I put the STLs point down, it autogenerates supports much like this. Not sure I can justify the price of that, just for supports, though. We'll see how much value I can find in the remaining 29 days of my trial. ;-)

Nice. Love the supports suggestion. Would never have thought to do it like that. I tend to use a haridryer rather than hot water, though. It works the same, but is a little quicker and a bit less messy. You can also use the hairdryer to heat the build-plate before your next print - that big slab of metal is a huge heatsink and can stay really cold. Think I'm going to go and print off some dice for myself!! Thanks

@ivohawkins822 4 года назад

I had perfect results for most of my prints. Only issue was the D12 and D20, the supports separated at some of the outer edges what caused the die to deform. Using heavier supports on them causes the faces towards the buildplate being „blurred“. Did you had this problem before? By the way, you make it look just so easy seperating the prints from the buildplate

I suggest learning fusion 360 and adding bumpers to the edges and your own wall supports. Then when you go into chitubox you only need to support the numbers. Also it does matter if there's an island. Your vat is going to have a bunch of tiny cured chunks floating around.

@ImagiNationLabswithRevChumley 4 года назад

I’ve tried many different support models for dice and I have yet to get perfection, but with this method everything was flat and correct with a minimal amount of extra material on the bottom tip probably due to light bleed in the clear resin, but was easily removed during the polishing phase. If you are seeing to much light bleed at the bottom, try lowering the layer exposure time to 8-9 seconds. See my Instagram for these all sanded and polished.

@Slannesh 4 года назад

@@ImagiNationLabswithRevChumley My d6 turned out pretty well with this, close enough that I'm happy with it anyhow. After polishing it's good. I tend to use thinner supports than you do (most of my printing work is miniatures so I've gotten used to using very light supports) and I'm printing my D00 right now. Have you found it necessary to make the supports touch each other or do you get similar results if there are gaps between each support?

@ImagiNationLabswithRevChumley 4 года назад

I’ve found if you leave gaps between the supports that they will hold resin and light bleed through the clear will sometimes cause the blobby faces/edges, but I haven’t tried every combo. Doesn’t hurt to try.

If you are printing the dice directly on the base that is the cause of the curing into the dice itself.

I've been resin printing since Dec 2019, FDM since march 2016. However, I've never been successful printing dice. The supports, even super lights which I use on my 3d Minis that come out awesome, leave marks I'm not happy with. BUT .. my real question for you is when you have say the D6 point down, and i dont know what layer height you're using. but i use 0.03 usually, the first layer is really just the point, and if you have a support hitting right on that tip, then the tip will print "inside" the support. and when you take it off, you'd likely have no point on that supported edge. So, do you just sand and reshape the edges? do you roll without a point on that one side? Really appreciate your help. Honestly, Im just printing the dice to have as a prop. I dont play or paint, i just want to have a successful self-printed dice set :) FWIW, my support settings are WAY lighter than yours. Your light settings are more "aggressive" than my heavy. And even with that, the tip looks to be a horror show on the pointing down edge.

Yeah some refuse to lay down straight, just make sure they all are angled the same way if it makes you. Good luck!

Man, how much to have you print a set for me? Amazing. I wish I could afford a nice resin printer but... Canadian dollar sucks

@ImagiNationLabswithRevChumley 4 года назад

I don’t sell masters, but there are quite a few good vendors that do, check out the blue mimic.

@johnbiggscr 2 года назад

Couple of questions…. 1) do you find changing the layer height makes any difference? I believe my default is 0.05, should I change to to 0.02 or would it not make any difference? 2) you talk of not needing supports for islands in the middle of the numbers. All instinct says they should not print properly without them so what exactly happens that means the supports aren’t needed?

@ImagiNationLabswithRevChumley 2 года назад

1. Given you have to sand and polish the masters anyway, it makes little to no difference. If you have an extremely bold number font, it may help with visible stepping in the fonts, but you would have to have eagle eyes to see that. 2. I said my font didn't really need supports, but I also said if you have a different font you may need them and that it wouldn't hurt to put them in.

I'm having a lot of trouble getting all of my supports to go straight down. they always want to kick out at an angle. It's insanely fiddly and gives me a lot of anxiety trying to get the straight down angle to snap. Is there a fix for this? D8 drove me crazy now I'm on first d10 and want to cry.

How do you separate dices from OpenSCAD to single dice .stl? Thanks

@ImagiNationLabswithRevChumley 4 года назад

Personally I brought them into Simplify3d (any 3d slicer should work) and separated shells, then I could pick dice individually and save them out as individual stls. There may be a way to do it in OpenScad but I didnt try.

You can find the info info ^above using the "//" command @4:55-6:50- Where is the d8? By using this command you can remove other dice and render the dice that you want.

@Andrew-oe1re 4 года назад

Are you aiming for the supports to cover the actual edge of the dice, or to be right next to the edges, but securely on the face? And if not, have you tried that?

@ImagiNationLabswithRevChumley 4 года назад

on the edge or as close as Chitubox will let you. with light supports you'd have to get a microscope out to see the difference.

@jonnyharmon1218 4 года назад

What layer height did you go with on these?

@ImagiNationLabswithRevChumley 4 года назад

I just do .05 as I will be sanding the crap out of them during the polish phase anyway and it’s faster.

@jonnyharmon1218 4 года назад

@@ImagiNationLabswithRevChumley Thanks! just finished testing it out and I had some air bubbles trapped in the dice. Have you ever experienced that? I am using a different resin (water washable clear blue) so that could be an issue. Besides that this worked like a charm!

@ImagiNationLabswithRevChumley 4 года назад

Yes i've had air bubbles trapped in there. I try to let my resin settle in the tank if i've stirred or poured new in until its clear of bubbles before I start the print and make sure that there is enough in the vat so that z lift doesnt raise it above the surface, other than that I've not found a way to prevent it, if you find out how, let me know!

Awesome. This looks like the Github project for the dice creation tool, hasn't been updated since 2017 though. Found it by googling for openscad rp dice generator for the link-adverse...there seem to be other options as well so might be worth exploring a bit. github.com/jcarolinares/openscad-dice-generator/blob/master/openscad-dice-generator.scad
