Nice and calm video! A lot of of the videos today’s are so hyper you getting stressed just watching them, so nice with some easier tempo here :) keep going with the good work :)
Ive been using the Saturn 2 since Sept and it's a beast. My only issue with it is the ball join holding the build plate isn't quite strong enough and the plate is very easy to un-level if you're not careful (even if you are) when removing prints. I think a whambam or similar would help.
1. Don’t hesitate to use the cover. 2. To clean up the printed models use the ultrasound cleaner. 3. Always shake well the resin before use it. 4. Try to not use the air cleaner - I think that this can increase the quality of the printed parts. 5. Each resin have his own print parameters, so before printing you need to print the test model with different screening times and look the result under the microscope to choose the optimal parameters. Hope this will help you get the best quality of the print. Regards from Ukraine.
Can you rotate the Jinx model so that it's lying on its side? Seems like it would print faster and with fewer supports. I don't know why slicers don't do it automatically.
I have gotten to the point where I home it like he did. Calibrate it and set at 0. Then I raise the axis .1mm 2/3 times. Then hit print without rising the z axis all the way to the top. But also I do that with the Saturn not Saturn 2
Um yeah, dont level the machine with the vat in place .... You dont want to risk damaging the sheet. Its best to use a piece of thick paper or card. Most printers will come with a piece of card specifically for bed leveling.

Is this printer also vendor locker like all (?) recent "chitu systems" company based printers? (and elegoo is using chitu boards) So only can be used with chitubox slicer and won't accept files from other slicers (due to encryption). Chitubox software is free in limited form and very expensive in full version. Free until vendor decides to end free version of course.
@@ElegooOfficial Lychee Slicer uses chitu SDK which is still closed source and still part of a locked system. Vendor can just stop supporting it, switch to new encryption style etc. Vendor lock-in (who doesn't know what that means should check wikipeida) is *bad*.
Wonderful review showing some of what this printer can achieve. Since you did find problems with some of the cleaning alcohol, it would be great if you could tell us what alcohol you got the best and which was worse results.
Where did the STL come from? Looking for a good Jinx model! Also, just stumbled to this video. You’re the only reviewer that uses a macro lense and microscope to evaluate the quality. Would you try to push the quality further with smaller layer height and antialiasing?
Thanks for the review! Do you happen to know the size and airflow of the fans? I'd like to order replacement noctua fans ahead of getting my printer. I know I'll need a voltage converter.
Hello, what printer do you recommend- creality halot-lite cl-89l 3d printer or Elegoo Saturn 2 8k ? I couldn’t find any difference between 4k and 8k quality but I want printer with good reputation and quality.
hi, nice videos I was looking single cell charge with battery gauge I want to include it in my project and display charging animation when connected to charger and show battery percentage on oled
Good vid. You covered the whole process nicely. The clear resin does not look good. I think the gray or medium blue would show details better. The microscope was a nice touch too.
Action Box on TH-cam has a desktop plastic injection machine that might mate very well with your (excellently reviewed) printer. They have been experimenting with 3D printed molds...... and it looks promising!
I thought you will make a 3d printer like this one, then I shocked when you start reviewing the product and the capability . my friend you are not Vlogger, you are creator so keep focus on your Owen project please. thanks
The most complete review I've ever seen. Thank you. Really nice job.
If anyone was thinking about getting the original 4K mono Saturn, Elegoo currently (06/19/2022) has them on clearance on their website for $345.78.

Brilliant video. Subscribed. Thanks!
Thanks for the review! Have been looking at resin printers for a while now.
1. Don’t hesitate to use the cover.
2. To clean up the printed models use the ultrasound cleaner.
3. Always shake well the resin before use it.
4. Try to not use the air cleaner - I think that this can increase the quality of the printed parts.
5. Each resin have his own print parameters, so before printing you need to print the test model with different screening times and look the result under the microscope to choose the optimal parameters.

You need to submerge your prints in isopropyl alcohol completely to wash them correctly.
wait
shouldnt you remove supports before you cure the print?
Thank you for this complete tutorial. does the shitubox version on the usb inlcude mac user?
Can you rotate the Jinx model so that it's lying on its side? Seems like it would print faster and with fewer supports.
I don't know why slicers don't do it automatically.
So thankful for your review!!!
Weren't you supposed to put the paper sheet for the z - calibration process? @ 2:44
I have gotten to the point where I home it like he did. Calibrate it and set at 0. Then I raise the axis .1mm 2/3 times. Then hit print without rising the z axis all the way to the top. But also I do that with the Saturn not Saturn 2
You didn't calibrate with the paper? Just on the film itself?
The instructions I got have me removing the VAT when leveling. What am I missing?
Wondering why you cure the resin before removing the supports?
Um yeah, dont level the machine with the vat in place .... You dont want to risk damaging the sheet. Its best to use a piece of thick paper or card. Most printers will come with a piece of card specifically for bed leveling.
Great review! Can you perhaps make an updated video using it to make PCBs?
That's stupid. It only prints plastic. No metal.

Thank you for this video
Great review! I've been using the Saturn 2 for a week, the performance is goodXD
Nice motor stator! Great show if this printer. Thank you!
OMG cant wait for mine to arrive.
Me, too. Mine is coming in August some time.
@@huyked update?
@@shrekshrek
Lmao. Still in the box.
That's was a very well done review. Thank you.
1:15 - You haven't met the United States Postal Service, have you? They would take that as a personal challenge. LOL
Hahahaha LOL USPS challenge accepted 🙅♂️
What type of clear resin did you use? It looks nice

Not sure right now. I'll ask elegoo

That's good to know before I buy...!
Hello friend, Lychee Slicer can also be used to work with this printer.
@@ElegooOfficial Lychee Slicer uses chitu SDK which is still closed source and still part of a locked system. Vendor can just stop supporting it, switch to new encryption style etc. Vendor lock-in (who doesn't know what that means should check wikipeida) is *bad*.
What was the clear resin you used for the Millennium Falcon?
That is a good question
Wonderful review showing some of what this printer can achieve. Since you did find problems with some of the cleaning alcohol, it would be great if you could tell us what alcohol you got the best and which was worse results.
Better use isopropanol all the time!
@@ELECTRONOOBS What concentration percent have you found to work best? 70%-90%?
@@HowCoolIsThat only used 90℅ isopropanol. Then I've used 70% ethyl alcohol and got bad results...
Please make a pick and place machine

Your video shows that you are using a water washable resin - So I'm a little confused as to why you say you are using alcohol to wash the models
Wow. Awesome
Impressive ! I want one !

What model Microscope?
What layer height did you use?
What clear resin did you use?
Muito top essa impressora, ótimo vídeo amigo.
Nice
Iam 12 years old i hope 🤞 have small 3d printer cheeped can you help me ?
Amazing 😀😊👍❤️
It would've been better if you used 8k resin.
There's 8k resin? Good to know!
Omg impresionante my friend
Make diy dlp printer part 2
Don't forget to like the video!
Good damn review
Do not cure the print befor removing the supports
It has a piece of paper to put in place of the vat for leveling. Lol
i live in brazil and it is very expensive :( i will never have one
Hello Electronoobs. How are you?.
can literally see lines everywhere and how it's not injection molded. still looks good but no sense in lying
Bro, you make a lot of mistakes when printing....is it your first resin printer?
👍
I thought you will make a 3d printer like this one, then I shocked when you start reviewing the product and the capability . my friend you are not Vlogger, you are creator so keep focus on your Owen project please. thanks
ooooooh
No gloves??
Hood removed? Wouldn't there be a chance for uv light to get in there?
DO NOT Home your resin printer with the vat still attached.
