Just wondering...

What's the consensus when orientating rings in relation to the build plate? Do you put the front of the ring (looking through-finger) facing the X or Y axis?

To make this simpler: A or B ?



Does it make a difference in terms of easier peeling and getting smoother results??

B

As Monger said. Definitely B.

That's interesting. I was always told to orient rings perpendicular to the tilt, not parallel. We have some Envisiontec Mini XLs here and we orient the rings longways in the Y direction. We were trained to do so because the tilt might cause "skew" by pulling against the ring.

Depends on the machine I guess.

The Solus tilts at the left side so that makes sense.

Thanks for that! I've been doing the other way for so long. I had a question though. Sometimes when I print with yellow, some of my pieces get stretched....circles become....oval :GASP!!: Is there a way to avoid that? I mean, I know yellow is sticky, but.....Could it be the x and y placement? Maybe I need to angle my pieces?

Check your grid size.
