  1. I came across this and thought it might be beneficial for anyone who uses ELEGOO Branded Resin Printers since it's a popular brand of resin printer. ELEGOO Official Settings Recommendations This guide tells you recommended settings to use based on which ELEGOO printer you are using and what type of resin you are using in the machine. Probally not going to be entirely perfect, but could be beneficial to getting around the closer settings to get the perfect print. They do also have an Unofficial Recommendation guide from users which is located on the page the official guide is on. But it doesn't seem as detailed. https://www.elegoo.com/blogs/3d-printer-user-guide/elegoo-printers-resin-setting-sheet

  4. Bonus: Small little me with Stormtroopers at Star Wars Celebration V (Orlando FL) in 2010 I came across some pictures of me (I'm the child) when I attended Star Wars Celebration V! It's funny how now I'm a stormtrooper. I hope that one day some child that I meet at a convention will be inspired to join us in the future! Edit * Found better quality versions of these photos plus an additional photo added it below

  6. It looks very cool in real life! I need to mess around with it more and make it not so bright. Had a busy weekend with Thanksgiving so haven't had the second I'm going to reprint as well since I just learned about a settings to make it more transparent which might look cool!
  7. So I might need to trim off the base that came with the scan which should be easy enough Most of the glare of the light is because of my screen protector on my phone camera, but it is pretty bright nonetheless so I will add something to lessen that Larger statue Smaller statue
  8. For sure! We can definitely work something out! The light pucks have arrived and I’ve messed around with them a little bit. They are REALLY bright, I’m going to try masking off some of the light so it isn’t as bright outwards and focuses more on the statue. Pictures in the next comment
  9. Oh yeah! I work at the makerspace at my college and we had a guy laser cutting clear acrylic pieces which go into these. They look very nice and not a bad idea for a hologram. I actually ended up going with these puck lights on amazon. They are battery powered which is good for holding in my hand which will hopefully look nice in fun pictures and such. I'll post a picture once they come in and I mess around with it a bit! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07RQMC2S2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1
  10. Welcome! I know Wilmignton is relatively far from me, but hope to get a chance to troop with ya in the future!
  11. Yep! That's the idea! Need to find a good light though. Someone I was talking to before who did something similar in the past got a puck light on Amazon.
  12. Totally forgot to post a picture, but it turned out great! I've printed 3 so far. First one had a print bed issue, so you had a really flat foot. Second one was good, the last one I made larger sized.
  13. Oh that's awesome! I have a resin printer with transparent blue resin which I've been wanting to use to make a hologram and this model would be perfect for it! I'll post a picture here once its finished printing

  15. Looks great! and just in time for Halloween!

  17. I guess I can understand that. But I was thinking for the kids that maybe have trouble warming up to us that this might be a way to show them we aren't scary, we are human. Something to lighten the mood depending on the event being trooped at. I said this same joke at a troop today to different people and kids and event their parents got a kick out of it. I don't see the harm in a little fun every once and a while
  18. So I saw a video of some Stormtroopers telling Star Wars "dad jokes" and puns, and I think this would be a amazing thing to say to children and such at troops! Do others do this? If so what are some of your favorites to say? The favorite one I saw in the video was: "Why did the Jedi cross the road?" "To get to the darkside"

  21. I’m still surprised that he’s on the list and I also believe that he should no longer be on it. Everyone in Carolina Garrison knows Jason and from what I can tell and what I’ve heard from other members, he’s a genuine stand up guy. He has donated several of the kits he makes for many different community and charity reasons including a raffle done this week to raise money to support our CO who’s had a family emergency recently. I even bought a replacement hand plates from him because the used kit I bought from someone else was missing one. And it looks great! If I ever get any armor in the future, like Tie Pilot or Gunner, it’s going to be from Intergalactic Supply! (Also as a heads up, he sometimes is hard to reach in Facebook DMs because he’s just busy. He told me best way to get his attention is send it in morning time and send gentle nudge reminders if he misses it or forgets. I’m giving this heads up as I know scam sellers “avoid” DMs sometimes so I could see how it would appear like that especially since he’s been falsely put on this list, but he’s genuinely just busy and forgets)
  22. Hello! TK - 23454 requesting FISD Access! Just got approved for ANH Stunt! https://www.501st.com/members/displaymember.php?userID=36136&costumeID=71
  23. @FN1313 So I think the shins are fine? So from you picture you sent, look at the arrows I drew and how the left side of the right shin dips down, and the right side of the left shin is more flat. I believe my shins are the same?
  24. Also a question, can I trim down/sand down the return edges of the shin armor?
  25. Thermal Detonator Also came as is and I haven't done anything to it. I wore it in a previous test fitting so I'll post that picture again. (I've done more to the armor since I took this picture, as seen above, just posting to show TD)
