Pay attention where you put the supports. It has to be closest to the part that is the most red. (((You want the support attached at the very first layer that will print on that part of the model))) ( That is the key) . If your support is a little off, you run the risk of nothing attaching there because the print started without a support there,

In the rotation portion, you mis identified the +- 90 degree buttons. They ARE relative to the current position, but the ABSOLUTE degree is just to the right of those, and as the Mew was sitting, it shows -48.00 degrees absolute. You could put that to zero (0) and it would sit flat on the plate.

Good stuff! I just purchased the Kingroon KP6 Mono Resin printer. I will arrive tomorrow so I’m pretty excited to start making things (I am a WW2 scale modeler). I appreciate the overview of Chitubox. If I am correct, I can’t create anything only edit a file and prep for printing with Chitubox. Correct?

The section on supports would have been much more helpful if you had talked in specifics about the angles, scales and distances over which support is effective. I just did auto-support on the supplied rook model and it added support to the lettering protruding less than a millimetre at 90 degrees. Does that really need support? In your example, you said that some overhangs were too extreme, but what is the criteria?

The rest of the instruction is good, tho, especially where he warns us of the many frustrating pitfalls encountered with this otherwise featureless software. Zooming on the image is a pita to the extent that the frustration seems deliberately engineered into the software. Also, good explanations on the supports. It's rare to find an instruction whereby the author warns, without bias or favor of the product being presented, of the poor design implementations so encountered, and this instructor mercilessly offers them in spades! By unrelentingly critiquing the bad design of the software, He lets the viewer know, to the viewer's relief, that it's the software designers -- and not the viewer, who the real idiot is... Forgive my previous critiques about this video (below), but overall, helpful vid. Thanks!

there's a part of my model as dark blue, like it's silhouetted. this is different than the other half of my model that looks perfectly normal and is the light blue color. in other slicing programs it takes on a dark gray color, I've been trying to figure out what it is and why when I go to print it it's not printing out correctly can you help me?

It’s possible it’s an error with the model, try downloading auto desk mesh mixer and running a mesh repair to see if that fixes it, I think you can also load the file into prusa slicer and they can fix it and you can save the fixed file, that might help

Jeebus... More tedium. Must you explain every detail of, for example, the resin menu? Must you tell us that the field to enter the price of the resin is the field in which one enters the price he paid for his resin? Understand that 99.9% of us understand, intuitively, what most of these intuitive menus do. We don't need to know that you're using a Creality, or that you're going to produce a Creality video soon.
