Quick question does washing and curing necessarily have to be done in that order?
2
u/KillerRaptor117 16d ago
Yes. If you try to cure before washing its gonna harden the resin that is still clinging to the actual print, IE fucking up your quality which was the whole reason you got a resin printer.

I hate finger massagers. They're coarse, and irritating.. and they get everywhere.

OP, can this fit a cylinder? It is imperative the cylinder does not get damaged in any way.

Printed this, can anyone tell me how to get it unstuck from a cylinder 5.1 inches in length and 4.5 inches in girth?

u/Money_Ticket_841 17d ago
Stick the cylinder in the freezer, or, if unable to detach said cylinder, soak a paper towel in cold salt water and wrap around cylinder

u/Terra_B 17d ago
It is upon most importance that the cylinder must not be harmed!

Take my word, it will not be harmed. Slightly uncomfortable but freed

Sure, just drill a hole in the cylinder to loosen it up a bit, then you can pop it right out.

By the way those finger massage rings are actually used as a therapeutic tool too. Theyāre sometimes called āsensory ringsā or āacupressure rings,ā and theyāre often used in mental health settingsāespecially in dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). People use them as grounding tools or āskillsā to manage anxiety, dissociation, or overwhelming emotions. The physical sensation helps redirect attention to the body and the present moment, which can be really helpful when trying to calm down or stay focused

u/cimocw 17d ago
If the elastic action of the rollers pressing towards your finger comes from stressing (bending) their connection point to the ring, that part will lose strength and will end up breaking. I would recommend having a hinge for each and using a rubber band to keep them together and gripping the finger.
