Hi Todd,

I emailed you instructions and I will add them to the manual once I create a nice diagram.

Instructions per Mark for changing the Vat Film.....

Mark "Changing the film is pretty straight forward but a couple things to remember... please do not over tighten the screws and the film should be loose enough that the vat sits less than 1 mm above the top plate before the thumb screws are tightened. You can stretch the film by hand if it is too tight. The film should just be pulled tight in the last couple rotations of the thumb screws. You can run your finger around the edge of the film (between the vat wall and the quartz) to loosen the film a bit if it's too tight and sitting too high."

And avoid cleaning the film with a paper towel as it can scuff the film.
