    Description

    Draining your build platform after the print finishes saves expensive resin and extends the life of your alcohol bath. The problem with the standard draining process is that the resin clings to the flat build surfaces and in cavities / pockets.
    This drain tool tilts the platform at 45 degrees and offsets it to the right so tall parts, and your platform itself, drain directly in to the resin tray; all while allowing you to keep the UV lid safely closed for as long as is needed. The jig is 3D Printed in high resolution using ABS+ with high density gyroid infill to handle abuse
    To maximize the efficiency of this device, position your parts on the build platform so any cavities aim toward the wiper (which is indicated in 'PreForm')  That way when you set the platform on this tool to drain, the cavity will open downward and drain much more quickly/efficiently.
