| == General Safety Rules of the Clean Room ==
| |
| | |
| #Do not use any machine you are not trained on and comfortable using. If at any time you are unsure of what you are doing, stop immediately and ask for help on Berea Makerspace slack, or email [mailto:info@bereamakerspace.org info@bereamakerspace.org]. | |
| #Do not use any machine that is not in good working order. Stop, unplug and leave a note on the machine and notify [mailto:info@bereamakerspace.org Makerspace leadership].
| |
| #Never assume a tool is properly adjusted; always check the tool prior to use.
| |
| #Never modify or hack any equipment. If you think an improvement can be made, discuss it on slack!

| == How to Use the Resin 3D Printer ==
| |
| | |
| *When you start lychee, you should be on the layout page
| |
| *Find a model you would like to use and download it (One made by yourself, or you can find them from these spots: Thingsverse, printables
| |
| *Go to the Lychee slicer and add your file/s to the program (Remember, the taller your design, the longer it takes)
| |
| *Click on model, and if to the right it says repair object, let it attempt to fix the print
| |
| *Scale your project to the size that you want. (You can do this by hitting scale in the left-hand side, clicking the miniature, and clicking/dragging any box. There is a yellow box in the center that you have to move over to see, but it scales the entire thing down uniformly
| |
| *If needed, repair the object once again
| |
| *Lift each model off the ground
| |
| *Rotate the model forward or backward
| |
| *Add support to your project
| |
| *Go to prepare now<br>
| |
| *If needed, you can hollow your model
| |
| *Add drainage holes if necessary<br>
| |
| *Make sure before you export that you have the correct resin type
| |
| *Export to files<br>
| |
| *Put your file on a USB drive, turn on the resin printer, and select file. If you’ve cleaned the machine, click start
| |
| *Stay with it while it is printing the first couple of layers, so you can see and stop anything that goes wrong.
| |
| | |
| <br><p>'''Cleaning'''</p>
| |
| *Wear nitrile gloves and breathing protection. Have paper towels ready, and protect the area from resin.
| |
| *Remove your prints using a palette knife.
| |
| *Place into the Washing Machine and turn it on (It will go for 3 minutes). Continue cleaning until the water is clear.
| |
| *Cut off any supports that do not come off with a wire cutter.
| |
| *When finished turn off the washing machine (Button behind the machine)
| |
| *If there was a resin failure, it is necessary to use the resin machine to harden some resin and pick it out using something.
| |
| *Take out the resin vat
| |
| *Place funnel over resin container, and pour the resin into the container
| |
| *Clean the vat using Isopropyl alcohol.
| |
| *Put the vat into the machine. Push inward until the vat is fixed.
| |
| | |
| <br><p>'''Curing'''</p>
| |
| *Place the cleaned design in the curing machine.
| |
| *Turn on the curing machine
| |
| *Start curing machine (Runs for 3 Minutes)
| |
| *Check the design for any places where resin hasn’t been cured
| |
| *If necessary, put it back in the curing machine, and start again.
| |
| *When finished turn off the curing machine
