new Formlabs software update

Just got another new Formlabs and they are now set up with a faster printing cycle and mini rafts.  Very cool.  Before half the printing time and materials were throwaway supports and a huge cost factor.  They also have a new setting for layers.....025, .05, 1.0 and now 1.6.  I was surprised how clear the prints were on the 1.6...great for organic shapes or just doing a quick test. 

I generally use the Grey, but occasionally the color tint, and the Black.  Black is supposed to be a higher definition media, and along with the long life trays should improve the resolution, I've found it kinda funky.  Not sure if it is the resin or the tray.  More tinkering to do.
