Octave Light DLP Top-Down 3D Printer: Close-up of One Layer Cycle
First print on the Octave LIght 3D printer. There are 3 motors on the printer which control the build plate height, wiper height, and wiper rotation. The firmware and software orchestrate these to print each layer, and will prevent you from jogging the machine into self-destructive collisions. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mSfZQtFd9_c

Thermal footage of a 14-inch wok heating up on the center burner of a Bosch Benchmark gas range. Taken with a Seek Thermal XR, the false color scale is the same as Part 2. Apologies for the portrait orientation of the video - I have not yet figured out a way to lock the Seek Thermal app in landscape.

Force testing part printed on the version 2 and 1 vat compared. This part shouldn't really be printed in this orientation, but I designed it to be a kind of "SLA torture object" to demonstrate differences between the two vats. It did happen that both parts failed on the v1 vat, while only 1 part failed on the v2 vat.

Major redesign to the electronics, changing the whole microcontroller and wireless stack to ESP32, and incorporating the switching regulator and USB UART on board. The wireless stack still uses BLE for app control, but now transmits commands using Espressif's ESP-NOW stack over wifi. Using sequence numbers, BLE commands to an initial penlight are retransmitted by every receiving penlight to propagate commands.

Continuing from the software setup, I set up and print my first attempt. The settings almost worked, but near the end where the roof of the cabin comes in, the boat pulls down from the vat. I needed a bigger attachment layer, which I discuss in the Completed 3DBenchy Prints video.
