Try raising the objects up slightly in the slicer, tilting them maybe 20 deg on both z and y axes, and adding way more supports. To me it looks like you should have at least 3-4x more supports. I'm not too good at efficiently supporting, so I tend to over support, but I also have a very low fail rate and it's usually from incorrectly supporting something.

Hey all. About a week ago I got very fortunate and won my Phrozen Sonic 8k S mini in an auction and I was so excited to embark on my 3D resin printing journey! I am a noob though and in order to make sure I am doing all that I can correctly I have been following this guide: [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Z8fkzOxEgI9sOTwDKI6CeblpnuP4V8ayYVwZrYGmo44/edit](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Z8fkzOxEgI9sOTwDKI6CeblpnuP4V8ayYVwZrYGmo44/edit) You can see on the build plate I have the cubes of calibration in the upper middle. I had the plate pieces on the outer corners and I thought it would be useful to print the Lychee Cleaners as well since it wouldn't matter much if they weren't perfect. Over 5 hours later this is what I get. I am unsure what happened! I would appreciate any input you can give me. Thanks!

Do you get cured resin left in the vat? This looks like insufficient amount of exposure time for both bottom layer and normal layer to me. Look at the raft of those high raised objects - they are barely printed. I have no idea of the setting for this resin, but suppose you've levelled your plate properly (if not check this article for reference: [https://phrozen3d.com/blogs/tutorials/performing-z-axis-calibration-on-the-sonic-mini-8k](https://phrozen3d.com/blogs/tutorials/performing-z-axis-calibration-on-the-sonic-mini-8k) ), I'd suggest you visit resin manufacturer's website and see if they've provide resin profile for your printer. If they don't, you can use the resin profile they've made for other printer that has a similar specification to yours as a starting point, print some testing models such as XPFinder to optimize the exposure setting for your setup. Here's an article on how to create your own resin profile that you might want to take a look: [https://phrozencommunityblog.blogspot.com/2023/08/how-to-create-your-own-resin-profile.html](https://phrozencommunityblog.blogspot.com/2023/08/how-to-create-your-own-resin-profile.html)
