Hi all,

We received our Form 2 a couple of days ago but have so far failed to get any print to work. We use black resin, and everything is brand new (so the tank was not used for other resins before). The tank is still in good order, clear and shiny.

The problem is that our prints end up on the bottom of the tray, in slices (which sometimes overlap in weird ways). My bet is that the print starts to build well, but when it reaches about a mm of thickness, the thin slice falls off the build platform and sinks to the bottom of the tray (under and angle). And then subsequent layers keep on being printed on top of this, at the correct angle, and everything just keeps falling of and screws up. Once again, this is my guess. Picture below!

All this happens with support structures provided by Cura - so it's no because we are trying to build "flat" against the build platform. Any idea on why this happens and how to prevent it?

Cheers, any help is greatly appreciated!
Thomas
