fellow rookie here, and i use a FDM printer rather then resin, but have you tried using "tree" supports for it and see if it needs stuff/time?

latent steppe
#

ah, that prompts the question.. tree supports?

ashen jacinth
#

hmm, your version of cura is differnt then mine, but undr "support structure" you can change "normal" to "tree", it might be that resin printers cannot do that?

o

#

spose i'll play around with that to see what i get

#

tysm!

#

have you also done an overhang test to dial in how much you can get away with on angle?

latent steppe
#

I have not, only two test prints i've done are the toaster & boat

#

should... probably do that lmfao

you can find something like this https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1564848
on things and work out how far you can push your supports.

Ohhhhhh okok! thank you so much!

ashen jacinth
#

again, rookie too my self so take any advice with a grain of salt. i'd also say if its a large/long print it give your print wiggle room on angles, as in not pushing it as far as you can
