i got two questions:

1. how do you operate the water bath?

2. why is it categorized for pets and animals? XD

@TheBeardieandtheLeo @TheBeardieandtheLeo #1 you just plug it in, program the temperature, add water, add waterworks chemical, turn it on and put parts in. You have to drain it and chance the water/chemicals once the water becomes highly saturated with dissolved support material. What else do you want to know?

#2 I have no idea, but I just fixed that!

[TheBeardieandtheLeo]

thank you :), now i have to wait til monday to take out the support lol

[team222badbrad]

@TheBeardieandtheLeo do you have a machine and waterbath?

[TheBeardieandtheLeo]

@TakronRust - The zPrint makes weaker parts.

There is not such thing as a "Thinglab" 3d printer. It's just a Zcorp.

BTW Stratasys (Dimension) is the leader in 3d printing for a reason...

[TakronRust]

If you are going to save even more time. how about you not even bother with dissolving stations and just get a Thinglab Zcorp ZPrinter 650 and have a completely finished part right away.

[team222badbrad]

nothing will happen.

I meant if you left it in there for too long.
