Looking for advice on small issue

Postby 3dLuke » Thu Aug 24, 2017 11:07 pm

Hello Fellow Solus Users,

I've been wanting to post up a image of a common problem I've been having and I hope one of you maybe have some advice. Finnally I have a larger piece where it shows my issue. It is common in most of my rings but hard to photograph which makes it hard to show you guys.

I highlighted in the photo were you'll see I wanted to make a perfect circle, but get a sagging or stretching near the bottom main support. This is in the new SolusCast but I've also experience this in Emerald Green as well. I don't thinks its the resin but possibly my supports. Although I have in the past added extra supports and wider main supports and I might see slightly better results, but still never a perfect curve to the bottom.

Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Need to support more of the bottom curvature. Make a wider bottom support or use the ring support in Contour.
