If it's a European 2 pin plug the supply will be 240v, just change the cable.

Re: Which 3D Printer and Software Should I Buy?
One thing you will need is to be able to create 3D models to print. There are 3D scanners that can copy a 3D object, these are developing quite well from what I've seen. I use Solidworks for creating 3D parts, I'm not suggesting you use this as it's expensive, there are other free alternatives you c...

Re: CHITUBOX
I now have another 3D resin printer so only use Chitubox for slicing as it can automatically add supports. But I have a problem with it, it takes ages to save a file, it's OK on short files but I was doing a tall file and it took about a 15 mins to save it, this is after 4 crashes trying to do a sav...

Re: Print quality suddenly gets worse
I think I may have a lead after reading this post: "Mysterious Missed Extrusion" He suspects the a temperature drop, I think I'm getting the same thing. I did a test with the nozzle about 100mm up from the bed and left it for 2 hours set at 220°C. The temperature fluctuated from 170 to 180...

Re: Water washable resins
Having looked into it a bit more I think I'll give water washable resin a miss for now. I don't see any advantage over convectional resin, and they aren't as strong or stable. The girl above admits to not using them in the comments. If you think about how you use and get rid of the old alcohol solut...

Water washable resins
Hi all Finally got my hands on a Saturn 2 printer. Now this is a beast compared to my Photon, so I'm going to be using more resin. I have read a bit about water washable resins, and they seem to be improving. I'm looking for strong prints but fine details is not a must. I have heard you need to coat...

Re: Print quality suddenly gets worse
This is the PLA I'm having trouble with, I think. The tower is very strong for all temperatures. I've done some small prints today and they are good, I used 220°C. I'll look at the esteps, this isn't going to be easy as I have to take the printer out of the enclosure to measure the filament. It will...

Re: Print quality suddenly gets worse
I've printed a temp tower, 235-195.
I think about 215 seems to be the best, but there isn't much to choose from any of them. Lez

Re: Print quality suddenly gets worse
I am at a loss. I did another part similar size but not as high, 12 hour print and it cam out OK. So I tried printing the part again, after about 9 hours I noticed gaps in the print, splitting, no sound from the feed motor. You can see on the print where it starts to deteriorate. The temperate for t...

Re: Print quality suddenly gets worse
Not having much luck.
I set the large print away this morning and it started then stopped after about 2 seconds, the machine had re-booted.
I'll have to think about this one.

Re: Print quality suddenly gets worse
I've been super busy with work so I haven't had time to look at it. Also there is this thing called Christmas that seems to interfere in everything ;) I hope to get it stripped down over the next few days. I'm keen to get to the bottom of this as I need to print the part. I have to take it out of th...

Re: Not Witertight and shows holes
I only use FreeCad a little so I hope I've explained it OK.
Select Part from Top middle menu that drops down. Then in select Part from the Top menu, then Boolean and Union. This will combine the parts. I did this with the "b" and the disc below and they move up.
Try that and see.

Re: Not Witertight and shows holes
I exported the file as a step and imported it into Solidworks and it showed the text about the rest, with multiple parts. You have 3 parts in FreeCad, you need to combine them to make 1 part then export it, that should work.
