Re: Pressing ceramic coasters with old (white) beta maxi

Post by Kubicixfactor »

I'm learning all the time with my BM20 :) I'm slowly ironing out printing issues and I went to press some ceramic coasters over the weekend and realised that I can't slacken the pressure off on the press enough to prevent them from cracking with medium pressure. I have a 50% crack rate!

I do want to press these ceramic coasters - and I'm not giving up because they look really good, so what's the alternative? All I could think of was getting another small table for this press and putting a thinner silicone pad on it to give me the depth I need? Is there anything else I could try?

I sourced the coasters from Longforte - anyone know if there are thinner ones out there?
