Easy way to Hollow your Resin 3D PRINT and save Money- Chitubox

[@redcossack3943]

Interesting to see someone else who is Chitubox user and just tilts and autosupports. I have had maybe 5 times I threw extra supports on something, but otherwise had no issues.

[@marciliocabral1558]

This is by far the best video about supports that I have seen, especially from a beginner’s point of view. This just clarifies everything and makes the process really easy! Great stuff.

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Thank you!

[@njprintz5116]

Great video as always🔥 a little tip I found for those of us using Lychee free version. Hollow out the model in Meshmixer instead of lychee (as it only lets you add infill in the free version), and then import it to lychee and add drain holes there, that way you'll be able to add supports on the inside of the model and not be limited be the free version features!!

[@TheCreativeCollector]

And thats why I don't use Lychee. To many steps to do. lol

[@TheCreativeCollector]

[@jpee300]

Thanks for the informative video. Will definitely try it out. Depending on topology of the model from the inside I can imagine islands can pop up. If the 3d grid is not covering those then I guess some inside support might still be needed. I guess this would heavily depend on the model. Keep up the good vids

[@louis550]

I auto generated some supports for a base and I used 5% infill but the supports still go through the model?

They shouldn't. I've never had them ho through it

Got back into resin printing after a little over a year, and came straight back to this video for refresher after a few fails. (I was putting drain holes on only one side, and raft and supports were doing fine, but the model kept falling off). Used this video since ya put it out and always worked great for me. Came back and its version 2.2 and a bit different so did best I could. Any plans on update on settings with new version?

[@TheCreativeCollector]

I'm thinking of doing a video about the new version soon.

[@GKid1786]

I've noticed with version 2.2 that I have to add supports first and then hollow it out. Otherwise I end up with supports inside the model, no matter what my infill percentage is? I'm not sure if it's the way I'm doing it or if something changed from version 1.9 to 2.2??

[@OussamaArari]

i have an anycubic M3 and i use anycubic Resin (Water washable+) and i want to know which settings should i put in the Chitubox Settings Regards

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Definitely something you'd have to research in some of the groups. I wouldn't have any settings for water washable resin.

[@MrSirFluffy]

Do flush holes interfere with using wash and cure station? I feel like it could fill up IPA or Simple Green (what I use), is this a problem?

[@TheCreativeCollector]

No. The purpose of the drain holes is to get the IPA in there so it can flush out all of the excess resin from the inside. That'll keep it from splitting or cracking and getting trapped resin out.

[@rafaelreisferreira]

Hello!! Thanks!!! I`m just starting on Resin printing and did`t realise that Chitubox would be so hard to learn lol. My Chitubox its 2.1, has some improvements, do you already use it? Could you please share your settings if you already upgrade to this version? Would be fantastic. Thanks!!! Regards

I haven't. Just make sure you're using the 5% grid infill when hollowing

[@alexpoberezkij9814]

@@TheCreativeCollector thank you for replying. I was using 5% then tried some other percentages but still getting nasty supports inside the hollowed model.

Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge!

Do you ever check for islands after slicing?

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Every time. I usually don't have any issues with them though.

[@zeycus]

With such small holes, how do you cure the inside? UV leds are usually wider than that.

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Because I print in only 1.8mm thickness you really don't need UV curing the inside. It cures throughout.

[@jessecarrion5522]

could i use these settings on my photon mono ?? thank you

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Yes. I've used them on one myself

[@justinsmith3079]

This video kind of makes it look a lot easier than it usual is. You have flat surfaces to hollow. If you have no flat surfaces and it's highly detailed, you pretty much have to use the option to punch the whole perpendicular to the screen, because otherwise the hole punch direction is seemingly randomized every time you move the mouse a little and you can never get it aimed right. I've had a ton of issues where it refuses to punch the hole, even though the hole depth is much more than the wall depth, it will say "too deep to dig or not hollowed out".

[@TheCreativeCollector]

After you hollow out your model, take a look at the inside on the surface where you're going to punch a hole. If it's wavy or has lines on it, then you need to adjust your precision in the hollowing process. This will help a lot.

[@and8817]

Great Video! Can i use your printer settings also for an anycubic m3 plus? What about the presupported wicked models or do you also use auto support at those one?

[@KerrRobinson]

how do the drainage holes help on that bust if it prints upside down?? Unless im looking at this wrong.

[@TheCreativeCollector]

So the purpose of them really is for suction first. That way the model doesn't float off your supports. When you turn the model over some resin will come out, and it'll still allow you to wash the inside resin out.

[@KerrRobinson]

@@TheCreativeCollector gotcha! So I am new this. I’m about to order myself the Saturn 2. And I’m just doing a deep dive into everything so I can use the machine with confidence. Here is a question….after you print and have everything washed and cured, can you fill the hollow with something to give it a better sense of weight?? And then plug the hole with something.

[@TheCreativeCollector]

You can. Some people fill with different things like sand or casting resin. Although if you use casting resin keep in mind when that stuff cures it gets hot, so adding too much at a time can warp your print or bore holes in it. So be careful.

[@KerrRobinson]

@@TheCreativeCollector appreciate the tips man! I subscribed as well! I come from a computer modeling and digital sculpting background, but I’ve only ever 3D printed something once on an FDM printer that wasn’t mine.

[@ArthurBandeira1]

Hey man! Quick question. Did you ever use or heard about someone using something to fill the model after it's printed? I make them for selling and the heavier feel is just nicer and makes it feel more valuable. I tried polyester resin and plaster and the model cracked, both from the heat and fumes of the resin and the humidity of the plaster. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks

[@TheCreativeCollector]

I've used casting resin in small doses so the heat doesnt warp the model but I've heard some people use sand or modge podge.

[@ArthurBandeira1]

@@TheCreativeCollector Yeah, using resin in small doses might do the trick! I'll definitely try it out. Thanks!

[@TwoFrothyBeards]

If any of you are having trouble following this in the new version 2.x like I was... density has been replaced with "Touch Tip Distance" and now based on MM and no longer on a percentage. Also adding supports, then hollowing out your model (in that order) will avoid Chitubox 2.x from adding unneeded supports inside of the model. So >> position, add supports, hollow, add holes.

[@TheCreativeCollector]

Thanks for the update!

[@clinthipfner6042]

My grid 3d has way more supports in it, might be an updated version tho

[@Miguel-bk3yo]

what do you do when you hollow and either end up with resin pockets or with unsupported islands inside the model?

It's rare but if it happens I just punch a hole in that part or use the repair option and see if that fixes it.

[@thedampgamer7438]

Slightly late to the party! This may seem like a stupid question, considering you mentioned it partly in the video, but can just using the infill at 5% support a "roof" on a model without internal supports? Other programs such as VoxelDance add internal supports to hold the "roof" up, while Chitubox doesn't. I understand internal supports are an issue but I cannot understand how the model will print without them, as surely the roof will droop resulting in failure. Many thanks.

[@TheCreativeCollector]

It should definitely support it

[@Andrew-jx2qb]

First off... I'd love to say how much I enjoy your content. This was a great video, but I am struggling. CHITUBOX 2.1 is now current and many of these settings aren't 1:1 any longer.

I figured at some point you're gonna need the printer support and want to make the move to the current version as well. So hopefully this spares you the frustration. This simple setting evaded me for some reason. Go to the three lined top left menu --> Settings --> Function --> uncheck "enable shell support".

[@wameier84]

if i can ask, do you still need to cure the inside of the model with that method?

Because I print in 1.8mm thickness, you don't need to unless you want to. Any thicker then you may want to.

[@joejvitale]

I tested this infil setting with slicing a torso for a superman figure. There was a huge island showing it will print before the infill support brace is even close to it, so in my mind, that would be an immediate failure. Just checking with you if I am missing something??

[@TheCreativeCollector]

I'm not sure what you're talking about until I see it, but I didn't have any problems with it. And I use the same infill for all of my prints.

I have the same doubt, since depending on the morphology of the model these can have many islands, I am not sure how the filling acts in these cases.

Hollowing is great for our pockets 🙌🏻. I have a newbie question 😅. When you mix an acrylic paint with a thinner in order to use it on an airbrush. Does the paint last longer compared to using it alone on a regular brush?

[@TheCreativeCollector]

The paint dries quicker when you spray it through an airbrush with thinner compared to water. But I like thinner better as for me it keeps the pigment in tact. You can use a little bit of flow improver with water so it doesn't clog the brush too often.

For what I'm printing those settings are unnecessary and I've found the time off delay can cause burnout in the screen eventually so I keep it off.
