I've updated my insane support settings for Chitubox!!! A quick video walkthru of my new settings!

Would these supports work for larger things like BJD parts?

Would these settings work in other slicer programs? Like anycubi's slicer soft?

uncle jesse sent me your way.

Can you help abou auto/manual support settings?😊

Great tips here....but I was wondering why you dont use any contact shape?. Is it down to the amount of surface area you need or is it to do with the clean up afterwards.

You still using the same supports? Can we get an updated video? Please and thank you.

Will they work in Lychee as well?

Thank you for all of your extremely helpful videos on resin printing! There are several videos out there about "support settings". I would like to see a video about how to estimate or determine the amount or density of the supports based on the size of the part to prevent failures. You print mostly miniatures that have very little weight. I am printing much larger (heavier) parts i.e. cosplay masks, armor pieces etc. I error on more supports versus too few to reduce the amount of failures, but I am probably wasting a considerable amount of resin on supports. So far it's been a guessing game when placing supports on bigger parts. If anyone has a "rule of thumb" or formula they use for supporting large parts please leave a response. I am going to ask Uncle Jessy the same question because he prints similar sized parts as I do.

This is awesome information I just wish you would have paused on each screen so that we can make sure all the settings are correct.

Awesome settings. Are there settings for "Heavy/middle" as well?

Man, you sound a little like Denzel Washington

The contact diameter setting don't do anything when your contact shape is 'none' like yours. That setting affects the diameter of the sphere contacts if you're using them.

Will you be doing the video on your settings for larger prints?

Close your eyes and you'll see Denzel Washington in your mind's eye.

This was disastrous for me on a Saturn.

thank you

great vid as always, hopefully you still look at old vids. but with the larger bed printers I been hearing you need to use more heavy and med supports? any thoughts on this? or experience? I have a new Saturn and am curious what you have found out

Thank you so much for this video. I just bought a Mars 3 and some Siraya Tech Fast resin and immediately needed to fill an order for some minis. Scrambled to figure out some good settings in Chitubox and learn how to use it. Found this video and hoped it would at least get me a starting point for some decent supports that didn't suck. First try, these supports rocked! They came right off of the model without any significant cleanup. Haven't needed to tweak the support settings any further. You are a life saver!

just wanna throw it out there that i do 3d printing very much on or off, either im printing everything, or its long stretches of months where the machine is little more then a display piece. but every single time i come back to it, this is always the first video i watch to make sure everything is optimal. from the bottom of my heart, Thank You

Does it apply for bigger miniatures, like 80 mm ?

Thanks for this. :D

Nice video, i do most of this anyway but i did gain a few extras i didn't know, every resin printer starting out needs to have this video viewed and playtlisted

what is the density settings please ? :)

Does anyone else find these super fine supports tend to rip away while the model is printing? I am not saying it isn't user error, but it can't just be me, right?

I'm having issues printing with your settings... which I do not understand. My supports print fine but my print isn't attached to the supports.. it gets stuck to the FEP film.. Is there anyway I can prevent this?

I just wanted to say I've been struggling with failed prints, dimples, all sorts of shit for weeks trying to use the recommended settings. Your tutorials fixed all my problems. Thanks so much.

Uncle Jessy sent me 😎

Nice

Why don't you export your settings in Chitubox so we can import the profile? I'm afraid I'll miss a setting and screw up the whole print. Plus, it's better to import rather than making changes to the default and accidentally overwriting the default and losing default settings - since Chitubox can't seem to understand how to revert to default settings.

These Supports are insane, insane weak. Tried on Mars 3 with Chitubox Pro. 2 of 10 Prints actually hold on the Support, on the other 8 were nice empty supports.

I want to try these, now. New to this and still trying to figure.... everything out.

The heavy supports aren't working out for me on my Saturn, they seem to not be heavy enough.

I have to be completely honest. I tried these settings on my Phenom L and it has been 24 hour of failure after failure. They do not work for me. If anyone else is using a Peopoly Phenom L? I'd love to get a test model from you with these settings if they are working for you.

Just to note, the contact diameter won’t change anything when you have the shape set as none. 👍🏼

I'm trying to get supports that are strong enough and contact enough to not have failed prints , but leaves little to no surface blemishes after removing if possible

Bump from Uncle Jesse. Love your vids.

You made my day. Thank you!

Thanks.
Why are U using "skate" on bottom?

One of the deciding factors of me supporting Artisan Guild despite tight funds was learning you presupoprted the minis. I do not have your patience and am very happy to let you do it for me. Thank you for all your hard work, sir.

Are you able to save the support settings or do you need to change them every time you slice?

I just spent 2 weeks getting failed prints on my new SM4K until I found this video. THANK YOU.

Can I use this settings in Lychee Slicer?

What will be good settings for articulated prints like the slug for example

I am running chitubox 1.8.1 and I have set my support settings to basically match your "insane" settings with a few mods of my own. While I am adding supports to a model, though, I will notice that the [Top][Middle][Bottom] tabs keep switching to [Middle] even though I always keep the [Top] tab selected. That isn't a problem in and of itself of course, but when I click back to the [Top] tab, I find that the [Contact Depth] will have changed from 0.10 to something else, usually 0.40, I think! I keep having to continuously watch that to make sure it doesn't change. Is there any reason for this? Anything I might be doing to change it? Any way to freeze the settings so that they cannot change? I've asked everywhere else and no one has ever answered. I'm hoping you might have some insight.

Are you using Free or Pro?

dose this work with lychee slycer too?
