What's the advice on how to add resin during a print? - Colin - 11-11-2019
Can I just move the lid aside and pour some in, or should I pause the print and do it?
And what about the inevitable bubbles created by shaking the resin bottle - should i wait until they have gone before I resume the print? Will the length of time paused affect the print?
Thanks.
Colin.

Yes, I did it all the time. When I have to fill in some more resin, I take off the Lid and pour as much as wanted into the vat.
I have no problems with the bubbles, most of them get out of the way when the plate comes down. But you are right, they may make your print a little bit imperfect. You can see the bubbles after printing...
But recently I found this nice thing, maybe this is also sth. for you: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3777796
