3D printer

3D printer
I can only see a sub-£100 printer bringing you heartache and pain. I have a fdm and a resin printer , which i have had sitting doing nothing for a long time due to a new eyesight problem. FDM are great for less detailed items , resin for more highly detailed , but they both have a large learning...- Gary MacKenzie

What blade type do you use and for what ?
Workzone brand, made by https://www.walteronline.com/en, think they were either a Lidl or Aldi purchase. Also use a set of handles and blades bought from ebay , Chinese origin, which are very good , but not strong enough to cut thru sprue, use my cheap blue handle cutters for thayt.- Gary MacKenzie

SLA /MSLA 3D printing with an Elegoo Mars Ultra - with a model making inclination
each slice horizontally gets cured by the system, my understanding about curing the finished model is that the outside surface will not be as cured as each of the very thin horizontal layers built up, That is horizontally printed , but most models are printed at an angle so the slice in the...- Gary MacKenzie

Result of the test without the right temp (1) the number of cylinders should equal the number of holes ( 2 ) which it almost manages , BUT , not all cylinders and 'holes'' are there (3) the infinity sign should have a crisp sharp point, this doesn't quite (4) horizontal steps are not as...- Gary MacKenzie
