Yes, 1.2 0.025mm for the non-base layers.

Are you sure you're at .010 mm, and not .1 mm? 6 seconds for WW Grey seems way too long - even knowing that the Creality's tend to have more UV output than most of the other offerings on the market.

Everything I've read so far on your printer says that it does not support .01 layer height. Try slicing at 0.025mm height with the same exposure you're using now if you don't mind obliging my curiousity for one of the test prints.. and posting the result?

 

I can definitely do that when I get a chance. Am a bit busy with various different projects and to dos at the moment, but I'll give it a shot when I can...

I'm beginning to realize that Windows 10 and sound decoders have a lot in common. There are so many things you have to change in order to get them to work the way you want.

I can't answer your question directly the way you asked, but I just confirmed my printer can actually go to 0.001 MM (yes, you read that right) layer hieght, so, even finer than 0.01. I was testing the new(er) litchi slicer (if you're using chitubox, give this slicer a look. It has a lot more out of the box 3d printer and resin presets and WAY more setting control). I did a test print of a tiny learjet (print failed due to poor support structure) but the part of the fueselage that did come out was ridiculously smooth. Will try to remember to post further updates after I get replacement FEPS and can start printing again, but do go check out the litchi slicer.
