Had a print before the one showed but it was on a poorly rendered version, So here’s my first successful print and a couple videos of me talking about my printer.

Looks good! I’d love to see it painted so I can get an idea of teh surface finish. What layer resolution did you use? ---

Simple grey .05mm , I read someone said the grey setting was working better than the clear.  The support side is a mirror of the top but it turned out a little softer in detail, wondering if it was just my finishing job. ---

For those wonder scale it’s approximately 40x50x8mm . Some pics with a few McFarlane 5" Halo figures. ![](https://support.formlabs.com/attachments/token/anc2wgj1v7yl19t/?name=IMG_0518.JPG) ![](https://support.formlabs.com/attachments/token/sgspf3clhjt64bj/?name=IMG_0519.JPG) ---

Thanks I plan on making another time lapse video, this one was just a tad shorter than I had hoped but really works well to show people how my printer works.
