This was my first attempt at printing the 3D cube test file.
Ended the print early when I realised nothing was on the build plate. It stuck to the bottom of the vat holding the resin rather than the build plate so I ended up with a snowflake effect where each layer was printed in an overlay fashion rather than a layered build-up fashion as it should have been.

andrew f. scott. Black Power Nkisi. FDM model. 3d scanned using Scan Studio and RapidWorks from a life cast.
tried out a new plastic, "PLA" behaves differently
most notably, it actually melts (phase change) where PLA just changes along a spectrum from flexible to gooey
I believe most of the scar from neck to thigh is a result of the slicer/plotter program always moving up to the next layer at nearly the same point. It is also likely, though, that some of that is exacerbated by the idle nozzle interfering with the model being printed.
(this is a "double exposure" of the same model, just rotated)
UPDATE: I was able to resolve the issue. Check here for the details. (firmware update)
Left hand side of this picture are 2 "steps" at 0.25 mm and on the right are "steps" at 0.1 mm. The transition between layers are... less regular than I'd like. Approx 40x.
"In mathematics, the Menger sponge (also known as the Menger universal curve) is a fractal curve. It is a three-dimensional generalization of the Cantor set and Sierpinski carpet. It was first described by Karl Menger in 1926, in his studies of the concept of topological dimension.
The Menger sponge simultaneously exhibits an infinite surface area and zero volume."

Fun with Muzz64's Sharkz model. It prints quickly... uses no supports and has moving jaw actions to clip bags, clothes, notes...or fingers!
