Saturn 3 Drip Arm (Works with other Saturn's too)
Print Profile(1)

Description
Be advised, I did not provide the print profile that I now see on the STL page. It was made by darvil66. The orientation in that print profile is incorrect, allowing the direction of stress to be in the same direction as the layer lines, which is weak. This was a print orientation issue, not a model issue. Please remember to orient the print in such a way as to avoid having the weight of the build plate stress the print along the layer lines. I printed mine with a long face of the arm on the print bed. Not the small cross-section with the loop. We have already had one printer casualty due to incorrect print orientation.
I made a drip arm to fit the Saturn S, Saturn 2, Saturn 12K, and Saturn 3 resin printers. Since I have friends who have all of them, I made it to fit any of them instead of just the 3 for my use.
It holds the build plate at a 45-degree angle to help resin run off the plate. I printed mine with an FDM printer, but it could be printed in resin.
I looked at a ton of these for different printers, and they all had pretty sharp edges. hopefully, the rounded ones still work the same, lol.
This also should sit high enough not to end up in the vat, so you should NEED to remove it before printing, even though I do.
