Flip your Uncia model down to top. Benefits: Increase the quality of all impressions by completely eliminating surface tension and other known problems of top-down systems. Save a lot of money buying small amounts of resin. Now you can purchase different types from various vendors without having to buy liters. Improve overall printer performance. Have a much cleaner workspace. Finally, achieve a more professional and nice-looking appearance. Update 1 08 16: Added Vat Holder stl file, updated Base dxf file, and updated Drawings PDF file. Update 30 07 16: Changed some hardware measurements in drawings file; added more images to PDF file. Instructions: The first step is to disassemble the inner corner where the stepper motor and platform construction are currently supported. This piece will no longer be used. We need all space at the bottom of the printer for the projector. You'll need everything at hand, including all printed PLA parts (don't use ABS), the MDF base, and all required screws, bolts, and nuts (see hardware list in drawing file). Begin by understanding the drawings - it's a good idea to do so. Please note that construction time will be approximately 5-8 hours; please have patience. With the help of drawings and measurements, mark and make holes on your printer. You can start with MDF Base supports; always double-check your measurements before drilling. Use the right tool and a good bracket to make parallel holes precisely - this is crucial to avoid problems later. Good luck! https://youtu.be/Qg3xoikWk04
