WHAT IS A RELIABLE WAY TO CALIBRATE RESIN FOR MY 3D PRINTER?
Jarrod Thornton, Oswestry
The Cones of Calibration provide an easy-to-read way of seeing if 3D resin is correctly calibrated to a resin printer

It doesn’t mat ter if it’s a downloaded STL model from an art website or an expor t from ZBrush. When it comes to 3D printing, failure and success are determined by how well the printer is calibrated just as much as the intricacies of the geometr y being printed. Both FDM printers and resin printers have their own unique ways of calibrating. There are scores of online guides about the specific techniques, which can var y from printer to printer, even if they are both resin printers.
