In Feb I started a thread 3D Printing a Early GWR Wagon Body
So a few months have pasted and I giving this update on an issue on the movement of the body. For the fist month I let the painted body sit on the window sill in my kitchen that get the sun till around 2pm to see if any warping happened . All was well. I then took it into my layout shed and it lived in there for another month. It dark most of the time and lit by LED light when I am in there.
I have noticed that the ends, one a lot worse than the other there is now a warp but strangely only on the bottom. I attached a couple of photos to show the movement.
Now it can be flatten by small finger pressure and I if a had put a floor in It probable would have stayed straight.
For information I used Siraya Tech Fast. it was washed in IPA for 10mins and dried off then cured for 10mins, in the ELEGOO separate Washing And Curing Machines
Does any one have any thoughts why this may have happened.
