3D model description

This is a calibrated resin indicator for the Elegoo Saturn 2 and 3 that press-fits to the side of the vat. I got tired of not knowing exactly how much resin was in the vat so made this and calibrated it with a digital scale.

I used Elegoo 8k resin for the calibration; taking the vat and placing it on a digital scale (the one my wife uses for cooking... ssshhhhhh!!) I poured the resin to the bottom of each bar line and rounded down to the nearest 10th of a gram shown on the scale.

It is a rough estimate so bare that in mind (by rounding down you should have slightly more resin than indicated, but this can save you from starting a print and running out of resin!)

Thus, the measurement is based on the bottom of each bar that is located on the side of the indicator (see photo). It turns out that the "Max" marker on the vat is about 800 grams of 8k resin.

3D printing settings

The indicator shown in the photos was printed on an Elegoo Saturn 3 using default settings and 8k resin.
