D40 Finishing Techniques

After a few questions about it, it's time we answered a vital question:

What does the finish look like?

Unfortunately it is not possible for us to give you a finished product as of yet, our souped up printer with excellent resolution isn't bought yet. BUT we've printed quite a few iterations and have tried various finishing techniques and settled on a warm acetone bath. This gives us a few benefits over other finishing techniques to include:



1) Uniformity - Due to the change in temperature from the unfinished D40 and the warm acetone vapor, it condenses on the surface to ensure that the entire surface is near uniformly stimulated.
2) Ease of Use - Acetone baths are easy to set up and easier to use (minus the potential explosions and brain damage from noxious fumes).
3) Time - Acetone baths work on a scale which can't be beat with other techniques.
4) Automation - As it's a simple lowering of the D40 into the vapor bath, it prevents us from being too heavy handed or light handed if we were to finish by hand.

If there are any ideas of better processes out there, please comment below, tweet @MaxStatGaming, email Maxstatshelp@gmail.com, or comment on our facebook page https://www.facebook.com/maxstatgaming.
