B9 Emerald Castable Resin Testing

I'm currently testing the emerald resin from b9. It seems to be working very nicely and is a bit faster than the cherry and the yellow. The cherry still shows detail much better because of the amount of pigment. The green is still a little translucent, but not as bad as the yellow.
Will release a print profile for CW once I'm finished with the testing. Also will post some pics.

Findings so far:
1. No major sticking to the film unlike the yellow.
2. It offers very high resolution, which is great. Very sharp corners.
3. Very good surface quality.
4. Takes more time to post-cure. After a day in the sun, the prints were still a little tacky to the touch. Putting them under the UV for 1-2 hours seems to help with that.
5. Much easier to see the details than with yellow.

To get this profile and try for yourself, click here viewtopic.php?f=13&t=149

Does this resin burn out and cast as well as the yellow? If it does then B9 has two new good products.

It should be better than cherry, but yellow should cast better.

The new emerald resin seems the easiest to print and also casts well.

Thanks!! Looks like a great printer for the $ will be purchasing one soon. The only thing is, I can't seem to find a U.S. contact phone # on this web site.
