Any ideas as to what I’m doing wrong?
This sphere has a ridge on it, and I’ve had miniatures come out with the base to be slightly offset giving a bit of a ridge.
I’m using a Halot One, lychee Slicer, and Anycubic Water Wash resin.
That’s just the foreskin.
Seriously though, if that happens on multiple prints, maybe there’s something going on with the Z screw?
I’ve paused all the prints I’ve done (I’ve only had the printer for about a month), I’m hoping that’s the issue. If not I’ll definitely look into the z axis screw.
I’m not a resin expert, but that sounds pretty plausible. Good luck!
It may be because I paused the print to check raft adhesion. I’ll try some prints tomorrow without pausing.
Pausing a print usually causes me problems. I’m not sure why. Temperature, maybe.
That’s what I’m beginning to suspect, other prints that have had ridges or offsets I paused as well.
Im pretty sure that you have that issue cause of the pausing then. I paused a print once, during one of my first prints, and after resuming it failed. So i just made it a thing to never pause prints again. It just messes with the print for some reason.
So pausing the print appears to be the issue. I printed 3 minis today without pausing, and they all came out perfectly.
Thank you for all the responses!
Does the preview have the ridge?
The preview does not have a ridge, nor was there one when I was supporting and slicing.
That ridge looks like it’s part of the model. Can you confirm its not supposed to be there?
It’s not supposed to be there, there was no ridge when I was supporting and slicing.
I should add that I’m using rafts and lifting the prints 5mm.
I had this issue on an fdm printer when the z axis was binding up. Bumping might do it too. But since you said you paused, I’m guessing that’s the culprit, not sure why though, maybe resume doesn’t take zoffset into account or something, maybe a bug.
I’m hoping that’s the issue. I’ll find out tomorrow, and if not then I’ll look into the z axis.

I don’t think it’s the render, there’s no ridge on the model when I’m supporting or slicing.
