Might have to try something different soon. Still casting B9 Cherry but no one stocks it in Oz anymore. Could never see much of a difference between the B9 Green and Cherry. Prefer working in the Cherry.

LOL.....too many to look at now. How things have changed.

so how do I get the new green to print as sharp as the brown did ? all the holes (cut outs ) made for the stones are covered with the prongs of the next stone on top , they blend , what way do I move my settings to compensate , or is this just the way it prints ??

Try your local drug store.
From what I have read on other post, about an hour in straight glycerin.

This is the glycerin I ordered. I let mine sit for at least an hour, but sometimes I put it in in the mornings and dont take it out until 3pm when I set up to invest for the next morning. The parts do like to float to the top so every now and then I'll go and move them down.

Make sure you're using the correct profile. If you are, then lower the exposure time slightly or the intensity slider by one notch.

is lowing the exposure time slightly down about .6 of what it is now ? , and your saying only one bar to the left on the intensity slider ??

Lower it by 0.5s to start and yes move the slider to the left by 1 notch.

I have been using the green from the beginning. I am using the original profile that is in the software program. Never had any issues. Might want to recalibrate your build plate.. are your rings out of round any?
I printed these Friday on my 42xy machine.
