Can I 3D Print over 140 Tabletop Minis in One Weekend?

[@Rybonator]

Just heard about this bonus - Printed Obsession liked the video so much, they are giving a 50% off discount for his whole store with the code RYBONATOR50 The discount is available from now until the end of October 2020. Mad thank you to Printed Obsessions and MyMiniFactory again :)

Hey one question where are your resi n printer standing? Are you having them in a normal Room of your house or the Garage? I have a anycubic photon and Bio resin, but dont know where to put it for printing. I have an office / gameroom with a window. Would that work? Best Regards

@@JJ-vp3bd They are still fulfilling preorders. Once that is done it should be up on their Amazon store, or if you are in Europe I think they have partner resellers. Should be available to the general public some time between the end of Nov and beginning of Jan... they have had some communication issues as to when the preorders will all be shipped, so it is sort of a large window still. But once it is available I would highly recommend it! Does small stuff just as well as the little printers, and gives you options to do much larger medium sized prints without costing an arm and a leg more than the smaller printers. This last week I did a pokemon chess set for my kids and a neighbor gift, and I was able to fit a full 24 piece chess set on 1 build plate! Its just so awesome to have that much space!

A possible suggestion for a future video? I recently discovered the ancient Royal Game of Ur and instead of buying a game, I want to build it. What I would like to learn is, how to pour the four, D4 dice needed with no numbers BUT....with two white(or off-color)corners. Yea, I could paint the corners but well...you know. lol It would be awesome to be able to pour the corners , then the rest in a 'nail polish color' called ''Vamp'', which has a red base with a thin black overcoat, so the red 'bleeds' through like an under-painting and then two bright red corner tips on each one. Also, the game requires seven, alternate colored, 2-sided 'backgammon' markers with 5 dots on one side, per player. Thanks for any help and keep up the good work with the awesome videos!

[@PeterSFam]

For the water and alcohol, put them out in the sun or expose the to UV light, that way the resin residue in them will polymerize and will either precipitate out or be easily filtered by pouring through a paint strainer or coffee filter. The filtered polymerized resin can in the trash and the water/alcohol can be reused a little bit more or go down the drain.

[@EzMoneyy]

BRO how the hell does this printer work?!?!?! this is blowing my mind!

[@BroodNBerry]

Awesome Video! Just a heads up you should be able to reduce the bottom layer count to around 4-6 and use the equation - [ bottom exposure time = Exposure time X's (6-8)], Example; bottom layer count 5, bottom exposure time 70, exposure time 10. This will reduce the time of prints but more importantly reduce over-use of the LCD screen, which will bun out with access heat as they are considered a "consumable" in resin printing. Typical LCD life is under a thousand hours. Mono screens add to this life expectancy but its still...
