<p>I have an Epax X1, I have just purchased the 2nd and 3rd bottle of resin, but I don't know what are the best settings.</p>

<p>What is the best way to find the best settings for a new resin?</p>

<p>Is it possible to print a calibration object that starts with some settings and changes as it goes? For example starts with 12 seconds and decreases half second every 5 mm?</p>

<p><strong>EDIT</strong></p>

<p>The 2 resins I am dealing with right now are <a href="https://rads.stackoverflow.com/amzn/click/com/B0794RQPJ5" rel="nofollow noreferrer" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Nova3D</a> and <a href="https://rads.stackoverflow.com/amzn/click/com/B07FCMM2S7" rel="nofollow noreferrer" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Elegoo</a>. Any help with those two resins would help right now, but I would love to have a more generic answer that would allow me to explore and troubleshoot any resin without asking every time.</p>
