[QUOTE="zero_zero, post: 313416, member: 9932"] Resins have variable shrinkage, that varies from batch to batch. If is not mixed thoroughly before you open the bottle, you'll have different shrinkage between your first print and subsequent ones. Print a 10mm cube, print it at 100%. Measure. Let's say it measures 10.23mm. Now divide 10 by 10.23, you get 0.9775. Multiply it by 100, that gives you the 99.75% shrinkage you need to put in your software . [ATTACH]34650[/ATTACH] Print a bunch of cubes across you buildplate, to map the accuracy of your printer. Nest your important parts accordingly. [/QUOTE]
