2025-09-02 (Tu) BonfireLaserTag Two successful prints

I kept having printing issues, and the failed prints appeared to have trouble adhering to the printer platen. In one case, the print stayed attached, but it warped and pulled the printer platen away from its magnetic mount. I suspected the issue was warping, as the largest surface was touching the platen. I started a new print, printing two battery holders, but their short side was the part touching the print bed. Since I was using a resin printer, this tripled my print time to six hours. Everything worked, and I had two workable copies. The threads and plastic were so thin on the top side that I found small holes. They were in the least problematic area, but I should still fix it. The positive terminal in the deep end was too large to grab onto the coupler nut, so the new resin may have lower inflation, and I can reduce my slopFactor variable. I added brass coupler nuts and tightened one battery into place, then read the correct voltage from the brass hardware.

Measuring from the brass terminals
