- An animated explanation to “Why did this happen?” When you move up to larger resin 3d prints, you also start seeing failures. There’s no blanket answer for all print failures. But in this video I explore a few reasons why resin 3d prints sometimes fail. And hopefully show you how you can get better results.
This video includes over 10 minutes of animated segments and those took forever to finish.
Hope you enjoy it!

A well-done presentation.Probably one of the most professional videos I've seen from the 3D printing community.
Thanks!
Really good video
Just found this channel and I totally agree. Not a this is best now watch my adverts.. This maybe best and here is why I think that... Far better. And with the BUT!! It may not work for everything. Well done Nerdtronic. Subscribing now.. And hoping you have older videos to interest me, if not look forward to more.
No kidding, he really knows what he's doing and how to explain it
@@helderlimaletsgo thanks
As a SLA noob, this video is amazingly helpful. As a motion animator myself, I know the time it takes to make even simple animations like that. Well done, like and subscribed!
Ha - you know. It does take time. But when I think "Oh I need a graphic here" I can't not do it. I have to jump into after effects and whip up something.
Are you kidding me, 5k subscription on THIS quality of a video? You my sir deserve more! I just ordered Elego Mars and I am thankful for your useful content
Wow, thanks! I hope it grows too :)
Iii
8iiiiiiiiiibjjiiiii
My problem is this: I have adhesion in my supports because I pause my prints to check the progress. When the plate raises up, the supports are stuck to the bed but my model is stuck to the fep. I don't know what's up. I haven't had a successful print yet. Everything in my print profiles are lined up accurately. I'm using the Elegoo Mars Pro. I only had my printer 5 days and I only printed four items. ALL FOUR ITEMS WERE STUCK TO THE FEP. What is wrong? My resin is new just like my printer. Everything is stuck to the vat and I'm losing patience. Please help!
@@yurushii My suggestion to you is to not pause your print. Let it run till completion at least once and see if it succeeds. Pausing it unnecessarily is always a bad idea
Man, the animation and content are amazing! thank you
In all the videos I have seen for the past 2 years, I don't think anyone has explained printing and how supports work with such simple and easy to understand graphics. Bravo sir!
From now on I'm just going to load your video instead of fumbling thru an explanation with non 3D printing people
Gotta be one of the best 3d printing videos I've come across. You have a great knack for teaching. Keep up the great work! Thank you
This is still one of the best videos out there for beginners trying to wrap their heads around resin printing. I watched this a long while ago before I even had a printer and it gave me a huge boost in understanding right out of the gate. Thank you thank you thank you
This video could be used to teach students in a classroom. Thanks for the information. I'm just about to start my resin journey and this video helps out a lot. thank you!
Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to create this. As a noob who only ordered his printer today, this addressed basically all of the questions I had. Incredibly clear and useful examples too. Amazing job!
Really appreciate all the effort you put into your videos, I’m new to 3D printing and resources like this help on the learning curve (concise, to the point and all quality 👏) thank you 🙂
Thanks for this. I have a ton of experience with FDM and this was exactly the high density informative content that I was looking for, focused on the differences and what's happening behind the scenes of a failure. Now I'm off to print some more!
You're welcome. Glad it helped.
Bit of necrobumping but same here. 2 years into FDM printing but totally noob with SLA. This video helped a lot to understand SLA more.
Thank you very much. This was by far the best description I have found on supports in resin 3d printing
Fantastic, educational, well-presented, easy to follow content. Subbed and thank you!
Best visulisation I've seen on 3D printing processes, very well done!
Extremely helpful. I am primarily printing large vases on Saturn and experimenting with support strategies. This gets me further on down that road. Cheers.
I'm shocked that you don't have more subscribers. This was one of the best videos I've ever seen on this topic. Keep up the amazing work!
Thanks - they'll come. The channel is growing. Just takes time.
Epic animations, especially explaining the flex and snap of the FEP! Just got my Saturn and this helped me understand what's going on beneath the goo! :)
Awesome thanks!
Fantastic! The animation totally makes a difference in understanding how the printer works and finally it all clicked in...THANK YOU!
Glad it helped!
I can't recall the last time I have watched a video tutorial/explanation that was so brilliantly visualized. Thanks for all the work.
This is a brilliant rendition and a brilliant visual for n00bs and for people like me who’ve been printing for ages, but suddenly have unexplained issues with personal files! Thank you! Sharing this!
Really helpful! Thank you so much! Going from FDM to SLA is such a learning curve because you need to change your vision of how a part prints
Thanks
Wow, this is an excellent video. Great production value and great illustrations. Thanks!
New to printing and loving learning from my mistakes, I know how some of my prints have been failing but this helped me see why. Thanks man.
My honest opinion, is you are a master and your well-presented information were really useful tips. You are great in explaining concepts. Best 3D printing video I've ever seen. You deserve appreciation of 3D printing community. 😁👍
Wow. You put a lot of effort into this! I love how clear the visuals are!!
Thank you so much!
Great job on the animated visualisations, they really help and look great!
Gee thanks
2 year's old video, but still super helpful. The time and effort to make this presentation.. well done, well done. Thank you!
Most well delivered SLA lesson I've seen yet! Thank you
This is by far the best explanation about resin printing and understanding the process when it comes to trying to assure a successful print! Thanks for helping illustrate the issues involved and helping to avoid failed prints. I just began resin printing with my ANYCUBIC Photon D2 and have had to work through some of these problems already and this video really helped me understand my print issues a lot better! SUBSCRIBED!
Wow, thank you!
Great video!!!! The animations were enlightening. I thought I knew what was happening to my prints but now I know what I kept having the same failures
Glad it was helpful! Good Luck!
The depth of information and the visualizations are amazing, good job
All around great channel and great production value. Your content is gold! One of the best if not the best on TH-cam doing guides on 3d printing. Really well done mate.
I've been printing with FDM for some time now so I'm very familiar with supports and overhangs. However, having just bought my first SLA printer my first prints were less than stellar. Whilst it's obvious the print orientation is reversed, I hadn't quite wrapped my head around proper support placement and print orientation (I guess FDM muscle memory just didn't want to let go). Thank you for explaining very clearly what my brain should have been telling me but didn't. This has helped me massively and you have gained a sub. This video should be a must watch for anybody new to SLA printing. Once again a massive thank you for providing that much needed light bulb moment.
wow thanks
Essentially what everyone else has said - clear and with great animations that really illustrate your points. Feel slightly more prepared to print now.
Wow thanks! Good luck!
Extremely educative. Thanks for sharing, your depictions of the failure modes are very helpful.
(like most folks getting into this) I have watched many, many videos covering these topics.
This Video is hands down Top Grade Info.
Way to Go. Thanks for the help.
Glad it was helpful!
Dude! If you are not a teacher, it is a career that you can easily handle! Outstanding video! Subscribe is a no brained. Looking forward for more exciting material like that! Best
Excellent tutorial. Have had a printer for 2 days. Hope to be printing with it next weekend. So many tutorials to watch before that happens. This one is a saver.
One day over 2 years old and this video just taught me more than the last 5 videos combined. Now I gotta watch your whole channel. THANK YOU!
I want to get into resin printing. This is the first most concise video I came across after a full night of searching. Incredible explanation lesson in gravity and even better animation! Bonus point for Jurassic Park reference
My son liked it (the Jurassic Park reference).
"like the dinos" You don`t want to release them the wrong way ! LMAO
If I would have watched this first, I probably wouldn’t have bought my resin printer.
hi mark , to get a resin printer as well ?
Finally .. I was wondering why everyone keeps saying angle your prints ... Thank you
This was a fantastically produced video. This quality of presentation is rare on channel with 50 times the subscribers. As someone getting started in resin printing this is hugely helpful.
Wow, thank you! Hopefully sub and view count will catch up this year
You explained everything so simply, and your animations illustrate your points so well. As an educator, I gave you an A+
I'll take it. Thanks.
Been Printing on 5 different FDM printers for the past 5 Years and just picked up a Peopoly Phenom L and a Phrozen Sonic Mini and had/have absolutely no idea how to support or orientate Models for Resin Printing, Major Hats off to this Video as it has been the best i have seen by far!!!!!!!!!!!!!
cool thanks.
Thanks for taking the time to make this video really well. One of the mist thorough 3D print videos I've seen. How about doing one on exposure and washing ?
th-cam.com/video/Jo1aoHnRY5Q/w-d-xo.html
I've always wondered why I get random holes in some of my prints, thanks for taking the time to make this video. Really useful!
This is great, I love the visuals to help me see what you are explaining, a lot of other help sections either talk about whats happening or they show failed prints and point out the issue but few show the actual process and failure visually like this. Thanks a ton I learned a bunch!
awesome thanks.
Thats the best video ever for who is starting at 3d resin printing! Thanks a lot man!
Understatement of the year! I highly agree. Thank you for posting the video.
Best “how to start with SLA printing” yet.
Thanks, Michael! I feel like I should have had to pay for this.
A really great explanation, very easy to understand and very helpful to start into resin printing, thank you.
Great video for beginners, and I am one of them but, have to say, I've understood problems with my prints and came up to similar conclusions. Having accurate small cnc machine found out that resin printing is not so great for 3d models that have complex flat geometrical shapes. You either have to add lots of supports, make model with smart integral supports (as cube model), or break the model into smaller pieces and maybe design with few artificial flat layers that you later remove by sanding. Very hard to get a perfect model with resin. Printing minis and toys may not be as bad as we don’t see much of flat surfaces that usually don’t print well.
I have a project (that will eventually be another video) where I made a self supporting structure - basically like a lego tree. Those pieces snap off and are pretty clean. Flat surfaces on the sides etc. No overhang problems. I'll try to get that video out within a few months.
Awesome explanation! keep it up, please!
Underrated channel! Thanks for a great explanation on resin prints.
Hands down the best explanation video on a 3D printing process that I have ever seen. !
Video is amazing and really helps for beginners! However I would love some more in depth ones. I can’t find any website or link that’ll fix my issue :(
Another great video. Thx
One of the best explanations so far. Bravo.
Fantastic video! I loose a lot of time trying to explain this concepts to people who have problems supporting their prints, with this clear animations and drawings I can just recommend this video to them , much easier!
If I had found this video 2 years ago, I would have had a MUCH easier time learning this stuff. It's so well made!
Especially the FEP snap lol. I remember hearing it and being so scared my prints were about to fall off and fail, haha
Honestly, this might be one of the best videos i've ever seen on youtube.
Sure, it's not flashy and the topic is niche, but goddamn this video delivers EXACTLY what it promises and nothing less and that is rare these days. Fantastic animations that are advanced enough to be pleasing to the eye but still simple enough to be able to easily follow the theory behind it, without being distracted by clutter etc.
Well researched, well delivered information that leaves me perfectly armed with all the knowledge i need to adjust the things myself instead of blindly following instructions of some youtube tutorial without understanding why.
I know it might seem odd to be so overly excited by a video like this, but this is the content that is making youtube such a valuable place rather than all the flashy/clickbait-y stuff on the front page. Take my like, take my upvote, even though you deserve more for your efforts than that.
Watch your mouth son.
Hard to believe you only had 88 subs when you put this out. Glad you've seemed to grow since then, thank you for a very informative and well done video :)
That was really good cheers. Coming from FDM it's hard to break habits!
When he said "A large free roam Dingleberry." I felt that.
Thanks for this, I just got a reconditioned Mars and have not been overly happy with the prints but this does clearly demonstrate some principles I was aware of but didn't fully appreciate. I will be keenly following from now on.
Sooooo even though I knew a lot of what you were talking about the way you explain them made a lot more click in my brain. Literally had me go from trying to look why my prints were failing to looking at it and the way you described upside down and how far away it is from the build plate and center. Lot less failures now!
One of the best graphical descriptions of 3d printing I’ve seen, awesome job
Thank you so much 😀
Holy cow - I learned and understood more from this video than 30 other videos - put together! Top pro quality!
Great video - the concepts of filament and resin 3d printing are elegantly explained with top notch animated graphics. It has really helped me understand support placement and the printing process in general.
I'm very new to 3d Resin printing, I've looked at many many videos and I have to say your video was the best I have seen, really easy to understand and the visual examples were just great ! thank you so much !
hi june, any plan to buy sla 3d resin printer, pls ? if yes, pls let me know, my china factory design, produce and sell 3d resin printer , i will offer u factory cost price w/ good quality ...
That is some REALY nice presentation we have here, I have a FDM printer but stick around to watch this just because it is so well done
This is the best ELI5 video to show family when they want to learn printing. Thank you for this video. 3 years later and it’s still very relevant.
These visuals are incredible. Getting my first resin printer today after years of FDM experience. This video is invaluable for me getting started. Thanks so much. You know I’m hitting that like and sub!!
This channel is required viewing for SLA beginners. Excellent content, well presented. Keep up the great work Mike!
Wow nice words. Thanks.
Forget about the problem-solving, (which is fantastic); the first part of the vid is the clearest and most succinct explanation of how 3D printing works that I have seen so far, and has at last given me a clear understanding in my head of how it works. Thank you very much.
One of the best learning videos if seen on youtube. The animations are on point. A great inspiration for my work. Good job and thank you.
Wow, thanks!
As a newb....this shed so much light on the 'process' and has given me a better understanding about the hobby! Thank you so much sir!!
The BEST 3D printing video. Even though I understand the concepts already, to see it visualised/animated like this is awesome 👍
Wish I saw this when I first bought a printer years ago.
Great job
Super helpful video, thanks! Just got a resin printer and my first print failed, now I know why
This is THE VERY BEST explanation and illustration on this subject that have ever seen. Thank you very much!!
Wow, thank you!
I thought I'd learn nothing from this basic video but it was the most informative and insightful yet. Your work is fantastic thank you very much!!
Great! Thanks.
Omg the animations make things easy to follow. Well done.
I do printing FDM since 10 years and never tried SLA/DLP up till now and had no clue how to do it right. With your video i understood the essential basics how to print. So with this i can start try to print something. Thank you!
Thank you for that excellent visual diagram. I definitely have a better idea now on how it works!
Probably the best explanation of heard and seen on this subject. Do more, please.
This is a fantastic video, and those animations are fantastic. I'm definitely saving this one to send to people. Thanks for pointing out why the blanket 45 degrees advice is problematic.
Also different angles can create different artifacts based on the XY resolution vs the layer height. If these matched then 45 would be the best angle. But they rarely do.
As a new person to this side of my hobby, I have to say that this has been most helpful and the best video I've seen on the subject
Really well explained and your visuals were so helpful! Thank you!
I just got a resin printer and have yet to make my first print. Gotta say after all the FB pages and videos I've watched I have been worried about it all. Bit this video helps so much that I'm sure I can figure this out. I'm not planning on making anything too crazy. Thanks for the very detailed videos!
This was an amazingly instructive video for me. Thank you! I just got my first printer and this helped alot with how I can reorient (no pun intended) my way of visualizing the print while i'm supporting it.
This was a better video presentation than the ones I've seen in college and at work. Fantastic work!!
Wow, thanks!
Just got my first resin printer and I came across your video when trying to find out why things always seemed to be printed at an angle, I now totally understand what happening thanks to your very professional, clear and concise presentation, keep up the good work 🙂
hi pwfk, my china factory design, produce and sell 3d resin printer, if u or yr friend want to buy it again, pls let me know with thx .
Just started resin printing, this is VERY helpful, Thanks!
Truly the best explaination of the issue. Well done!
This video was a HUGE help, thanks so much. I've been having a love/hate relationship with my Anycubic Photon printer and my supports were pretty good - But you explained all the OTHER reasons my prints were failing.
Great to hear!
This is by far the best 3D printing video I have seen. Fantastic work! Thank you. Liked and subscribed 👍
As many have said. This man deserves more likes and subscribes. His presentation is stellar and the visuals are perfect for showcasing not only WHAT goes wrong but HOW and WHY. Most people would probably just settle for still images of failed prints and explain over them.
thanks. I'll get there. It takes a while to get traction.
This is the best SLA tutorial. Saved me weeks of trouble for a beginner.
Very well put together video. I appreciate the time and effort put into this!
Thank you for this clear commentary and illustration of what is happening. Very good clear explanation with out techy jargon.
Like many others have stated this is possibly the best video I have seen on the basic theories of resin printing. Fantastic job Nerdtronic!
Wow, thanks!
