Yeah there are plenty of things that I know will get it off, but then I have to make sure that all gets properly cleaned off so it doesn't harm the FEP or resin.Dr_Strangelove (whew!) wrote: ↑Fri Nov 13, 2020 12:38 pm
Ah-ha. In that case, use this: https://www.amazon.com/Berryman-Chemtoo ... 829&sr=8-1

Ugh. Another response from them...
It was much more long winded, but I've told them where to stick it as the community has solved the problem ourselves.
What ever happened to "you get what you pay for"?
Ya think that might be the whole god damn problem???It is normal to have some leaking from the Resin while printing this can't be avoid but unlike water this will take longer. The tank is not water tight and there's no rubber sealing between the frame and the foil the only thing that is keeping this in place and tight is the Tank frame that you screw in.

Customer no service. Glad you got it figured out.

Re: Anyone know much about 3d printers?
At 60 hours with no sign of leaking I called the rubber band test successful. So I dried out the tank and the printer is actually printing something for the first time in 2 weeks...

Finally wrote up my ordeal Prusa and posted it in a place Joseph Prusa is known to read.

Re: Anyone know much about 3d printers?
Good lord. With much trepidation about being pissed off the rest of the day I opened an unprompted email from Prusa support this morning. They now acknowledge that I'm not the only one having this problem and say their developers are looking into possible redesign options for the tank. Glad to know they didn't really blow me off like it last sounded.
In the meantime the o-ring option has been working well and I got through my backlog of stuff I was trying to get printed.
Now it's sitting idle because I've run out of stuff to print with it... (well... more like I need to catch up with a pile of painting...).

Re: Anyone know much about 3d printers?
HOLY CRAP! That is a lot of stuff. So dropping a dime on Mr. Prusa might have paid off? Maybe you could sell them the rights to your fix?

Re: Anyone know much about 3d printers?
That's only about 130ish hours give or take worth of print time. When you through in the cleaning and curing and then prepping for paint it will probably be in the 170 range.32wildbilly wrote: ↑Wed Nov 25, 2020 9:26 am HOLY CRAP! That is a lot of stuff.

I don't know that my reddit post had anything to do with it. It was generally not well received...
It's not my fix, I was just a willing alpha/beta tester
