Sonic Mini now available on Amazon for $230! amzn.to/2VpbbGS - affiliate link

[@riz429]

@Uncle Jessy Did you experience any damage to the resin vat's red plastic after using the phrozen aquagreen resin?? I have received the printer but am afraid of using the aquagreen resin especially since they made the it out of stock after its first bad review on amazon.

[@pat7777100]

What slicer software is the best further frozen printer

[@JasonAguirre]

Do you have an affiliate link for resin? Not sure if you mentioned it but will it work with other brands of resin?

[@GaryTabarJr]

Amazon no longer carries them because of shortages, and models coming out in 2 weeks have a metal vat and an increased pricepoint. First issued versions have vat reactions to various resins, and many customer experienced vats cracking in less than a week. Phrozen will replace those plastic vats, and offer a coupon on amazon for a discount on replacement metal vats arriving within 2 weeks.

[@simonm1233]

How is it compared to the other known and very good models that only cost $20 more?

[@Starganderfish]

6:30 - So much RESIN dripping all over that machine! Almost made me cry.

[@UncleJessy]

Shhhh you will upset the resin overlords.

[@JackDodgers]

I cried...

[@TravisCampbell6l6]

This was giving me so much anxiety!

[@TheMechanix78900]

I could not stop laughing hahaha

If you look closely enough, you can see that Ryuk is writing the name of the screenwriter that created the Netflix adaptation.

[@UncleJessy]

bwahaha was it that bad? I honestly have never watched the netflix show or read Death Note

[@-silver0199]

Just got mine and tested it out! It worked great!(for an hour and a half) Now it shorts out and reboots whenever it tries to turn on the UV light :( Hopefully support gets back to me with an easy fix. Edit: And... one video sent later they're sending me a part to try and fix it. So much for an easy fix >.> It was easy to get things set up, at least. I can definitely appreciate that kind of support. Edit2: Repair took 5 minutes. Printer is working. Awesome customer service

[@tonyvarin2714]

So far you'd recommend it?

[@-silver0199]

@@tonyvarin2714 after the fix I've had some awesome prints. On some smaller bits I've noticed that some things don't necessarily correctly form(for example, an individual finger on to scale human figures), but those are few and far between. I could probably fix those by slowing things down too. At the moment I have it printing at 1.5 seconds per layer with phrozen's Aqua Green, so it's printing super fast. If you want a decent resin printer on the small end, I definitely recommend it.

[@timsarai]

Silver0199 is the control panel all in English? I don’t tend to watch vids with audio on so I don’t know if it’s mentioned

[@-silver0199]

@@timsarai Yes. Everything that is displayed on the machine's lcd seems to be in English. There might be something hidden, as I haven't really gone to far into the settings on the machine itself.

[@Troyduck23]

Where did you buy it? I'm seeing unavailable in some places, and a higher price in others. I want a reliable order. Thanks!

[@UncleJessy]

Thanks again to 3DPrintFarm! Make sure to checkout his Sonic Mini review video kzbin.info/www/bejne/nqTboGafjcmbrrs

[@3DPrintFarm]

Thanks for the shout out! Great job on your overview of this great machine!

[@UncleJessy]

@@3DPrintFarm no no... thank you for helping me with that buildplate haha

[@chrislannon]

Thank you both for great content!

[@demon666.]

where do you buy models for printing?

[@chrislannon]

@@demon666. Check out MyMiniFactory. Great stuff there.

[@mrhomely]

I would love to see a stress test between this and the elegoo Mars. See if the higher resolution screen is truly noticeable

[@dakotapahel-short3192]

Ya I would too. The difference is like 12 microns. Cells in the human body are normally around 5 to 10 microns... Also this printer uses a much better parallel light source. My photons usually have an offset of +120 microns because the UV light without a parallel uv matrix spreads out between the light and the resin vat. So I'm waiting to see a dimensional accuracy comparison. The phrozen mini Should be tighter tolerances.

[@AndyShrestha]

Thank you for mentioning the print time. That’s so important but nobody talks about it. Thank again

[@Phildo8]

Yep I paused this video halfway through after seeing those cool lil goblins & actually went & placed my order on this printer! Ive been making mini resin figures already but I do the whole sculpting the figure, making a silicone mold, then casting my resin figures. This will help me speed up my orders and shorten my waiting list in no time!!

[@jlmussi]

Awesome review as usual!

[@MrAndersonMusic056]

Hey Jessy! Do you plan on doing a review on the new Anycubic Photon Zero? I’d love to see the quality of prints it’d come out with given the price of $169!

[@brucewilson77]

wow ! $256 to your door amazing. they also have great prices on resins and consumables/peripherals.

[@UncleJessy]

Yep! I believe it already sold out on amazon but it was about $250 on amazon if I remember correctly

[@seanwarren9357]

Yeah, I'm pretty blown away...

[@alexanderwillis9473]

5:00 you talked about tweaking the print settings, is the settings at 2:27 before or after the tweak ?

[@martinroskilly9994]

I would’ve liked to see the back of the model figurines too but great review. Love it!

[@Grimm0ni]

been thinking of buying a 3d printer. had myself decided on elgoo mars as my first printer but now i need to see the comparison on these two. cant wait to see your review on this head to head with the mars model to see which is a better starter model.

[@projectx1635]

Because of this... My conciousness made me buy the Sonic mini 3d printer and sub to your channel.

[@bladezx2]

Hey Jessee, can you do a video about using liquid resin to smooth FDM prints. Apllying a light layer of resin on a 3rd print then putting it in the sun to cure to smooth out the print.

[@JustTryGambling]

Got mine yesterday but I’m scared to use it after hearing everything about the plastic vat. I’ve run test runs though to make sure everything works and it’s super fast! Great quality!

[@welbot]

Looks like a fun little machine to play around with!

[@ScornedOne1080]

I'm always amazed by the Resin printer's details. You can't get anywhere near that with a plastic filament 3D printer.

[@davidbailey6932]

Can you get replacement lights for it when this one goes out? It looks great!

[@danielleguizzetti]

totally new to 3d printing. i've been interested in creating blanks though to use in molds for keychains. do you think this machine would be able to do it? it would be totally flat blanks, for things like shakers. great video!

[@crussty3d]

Monochrome is the new hottie! Long lasting and much faster print times. Can’t believe they got that in at this price point.

[@dennisash7221]

Well the price point is a good question, looking at the BOM cost means they are making so little profit it is not sustainable ... what does that mean for the future? Are they going to just go bust, or bump the price up to where it should be, the real question is will your printer be supported in 6 or 12 months time?

[@TheIcemanModdeler]

From what i read most printers use regular color screens like monitors, tablets, phones and monochromatic screen can only display a single color, probably white and lasts longer and prints faster.

[@MagnusSohlberg]

Looking nice! Loving the results! Now I've got a question; as a complete newbie in the area of 3D-printing, what is your take on ventilation when using these machines? Enclosed area? Exhausts? I live in an apartment, and my significant other would kill me if I remodeled the rooms with tubes.. :') But I really want to invest in a machine like this.

[@carp3diem261]

Just did an unboxing of this beast too! Love it!

[@agepbiz]

Great review as always! This does look like an interesting machine. For me the build size is more than enough for most of my resin projects. Do you have any information about the resolution on the screen? I was not able to find anything on their website

[@UncleJessy]

1080 x 1920 thanks! Yeah it’s lower res than mars or photon but still prints dang great

[@agepbiz]

@@UncleJessy 1080p is not that bad! I was afraid this machine was a direct competitor to the Photon Zero that runs measly 854x480

[@bradvids7532]

you could extend the z axis lead screw and put the printer in a dark room so you don't need the cover for the printer. this would allow for even taller prints. How ever i don't know if there are any caps on the software used but this would be a cool upgrade if it works.

[@Ecobeastsoffroad]

Just happened upon your channel, excellent info and informative...subscribed!

[@UncleJessy]

Glad to hear you found it and thanks for subbing!

[@TheAppStop]

Just curious do you guys think that the screen they use in this could ever be put in a photon to make it faster?

[@3DJapan]

Mine will be arriving in a few days. I wonder if you've done much printing with the Siraya Tech Fast. That's what I normally use but I've seen some people saying it reacted funny with the plastic vat and caused cracks.

[@leok8183]

Is the 3D-printer noise in the background driving me crazy, or is there no noise and i already am?

[@nsolomons8361]

I heard a noise

[@1hej0k3r]

I'm actually looking through a couple of videos to see if something is wrong with my Sonic Mini that just arrived. Sadly it appers to be normal and i can confirm: It's extremely loud and the frequency melts your brain. I'm actually surprised that this wasn't pointed out in any review.

[@zeno6111753]

At this price point are the resin printers becoming the new generation of ink jet printers? In other words, you buy one. You use it till something breaks, then you buy a new one because parts are almost as expensive as a new printer, and by the time stuff breaks a better version is available. Just a thought :)

[@ScornedOne1080]

Not quite . . . the individual parts of most 3D printers are pretty affordable. This $200 machine is pretty rare for that cost, but it only seems to have one moving part, maybe 2. So maintenance should be pretty easy and parts easily acquired.

[@xzevious69]

Amazing !! Do they make a bigger one?

[@benelmashiah]

Would love to see a comparison of printed models from the full hd monochrome screen of the Phrozen Sonic Mini against the 2k screen of a printer like the Creality ld002\ Mars\ Photon etc and hear your thoughts on how they stack up to each other, Im really trying to decide between the two (the Phrozen and the Creality or the Mars Pro if they get restocked anytime soon haha) and want to know if the gap in screen resolution has any perceivable difference in the printed models

[@mfconstructor]

LooKs really light , that helps in shipping also right ?

[@Antonio-dn9yo]

Hello, thank you for the great review. I can't make up my mind between the Creality LD-002R(around $240) and the Phrozen Sonic Mini which is more expensive (at least when delivering to Portugal it now runs around $300). What would make you chose between one or the other? I need it to print dental models and surgical guides. Thank you in advance

[@jrami223]

Highly recommend this printer highly

[@balkenkreuz2063]

Hey man, I've been watching a few of your videos lately just out of curiosity to see what 3d printing is all about. Honestly, I got interested in experimenting with that technology and see what goodies I can create. However, I am not sure what budget/beginning friendly printer should I get. I like this one as well as the monoprice mp mini sla and the anycubic photon (mostly because Pete the wargamer uses it). Which one would you recommend to someone like me who wants to try this out but at the same time save money while doing it? Thank you mate!

[@Csrumk]

Gravity Falls and Death Note figures in one video? 11/10

[@nazaire7]

Would you advise this product over the recent mp mini resin printer for a user new to resin printing? They're equally priced, but you seemed more excited about this one.

[@zoos_lol4106]

does the lid crack when exposed to isopropanol? A problem i dealt with with my last 3D printer

[@AlexRQRez]

Gosh! great review as usual but all I can see is the resin drops on front of the printer... He is even touching screen with all resin spills on it

[@UncleJessy]

Haha yea, I noticed that as I was editing and promptly cleaned that up once I got home ;)

@@UncleJessy Would you recommend spending more on it than the Mars for a first timer?

[@tokagehideto]

same! this look perfect for me, i know i don't need a giant resin printer so this seems ideal.

[@milesgti]

I heard the original phrozen build platform will work with this machine which has the angled aspect. $70 dollars though so now we are at $270. Then others may want the metal vat which is also $70. So now we are at $340. I still bought one though and plan to upgrade.

[@89emeza]

love it, im definetly gonna be looking further into this. would this smell too much to have in a basement though?

[@jakebruce11]

Depends on the resin that you use. Unfortunately I haven't found a good review of all resins with their smells, but I've found the bio-resins to be particularly odor-free. No issue printing in a basement or closet or whatever.

[@dannyrooster8554]

Nice video. I would like to see the difference between Phrozen and Elegoo Mars. :D

[@jonryshkus]

What resin can you use with this printer? Is there a particular brand that you have to use or can you use any

[@MrStatistx]

Here's hoping that I can get it in Austria in about 4 months. Right now it's not on the German Amazon and other sites in Europe go for like 400 bucks

[@SigurdBraathen]

It seemed like it could print some nice models, even with the lower resolution. Jessy: I for one would like a video where you print the same, extremely detailed figure on both this printer and one with better resolution. Then let us know if you can spot any difference, for I doubt we could tell =] Please?

[@ilikenothingtoo]

I just got mine, is there no fan in it? I didn't here on kick on.

[@kotgc7987]

Looks pretty good! How can it print faster? I thought the time depends on the resin curing time, which as a noob, I understand is 3-5 seconds per layer. Thinner layers? Monochromatic screen longer lasting is great.

[@johnmorrison7984]

I would think that curing time is proportional to the amount of UV it's exposed to. The premise being that a monochromatic screen allows a greater amount of UV light through so cures faster I'm assuming.

[@MrNBridger]

Do I need a special Resin for the fast print or just change the settings in Chitubox?

[@TheWheels1965]

Hey Im trying to buy 1 ltr resin bottle but hard to find is there a storage!

[@Fatpumpumlovah2]

Note on ur leveling, use a full sheet to cover the entire base. Exactly on the side the ring didnt print as u uaed torn paper not fully covering the base so was not level.

[@Mobile_Dom]

i heard monoprice are redoing the mini SLA, you willing to check it out again for the same $200?

[@rogerburdette4854]

With the reviews that you have done on the sla resin printers. Which do you think is best that is under 3 to 400 dollars? Just wondering cause I want to purchase one that isn't complicated and has high quality.

[@swardinc]

Question: is this something that can make medical gear like gloves? For instance most gloves are made of latex so that most likely not the issue since you can 3d print in any material but what about attaching say a glove that can read temperature with a database? I'm looking at ways to make items that are usefully not sure for the looks which i like as well but with the current virus issues im wonder if it possible to use a 3d printer to create something that can be of use

[@guop59]

better than photon or mars?

[@Madhuntr]

HMMM was thinking about getting a resin printer for my n scale project because there are still many lcoos waggons and other stuff out there that is not available in 1:160. i think i will buy this thing ^^

[@EastwoodFabrication]

Wow thats pretty nice. Maybe i should get one while im waiting for my Phenom lol

[@axelhopfinger533]

The very small build volume is a bit restrictive, but if you only plan to make some jewellery or miniatures with it, this could be the Ender 3 of resin printers! Now let's just hope that Corona Quarantine doesn't impact chinese manufacturing too much, or these won't be available for quite some time.

[@emmanueltzingakis3842]

Hi thanks for the video. I have bought th sonic mini, but can't get the settings right on my slicer. May I ask what slicer you are using and what are settings for the sonic?

[@DanTup]

What's the reason for printing a model at the angle shown at 2:41 with supports as opposed to having the flat base flat on the build plate?

[@thebeybladearmory]

Maybe the height of the figure was too tall to stand traight up?

[@KyleTO7]

Can this printer use wax resin for Jewellery casting?

[@monkeydumpster]

Do you have a link to the Bill Cipher file? I can’t find it.

[@wIzKid16100]

So which one is faster, the EPAX x1 or this one?

[@jaekrieldgx8245]

I just saw this video for the first time. I wasn't aware of Phrozen 3D Printers, but at this typing - The link you provided does not have the Phrozen Mini available from Amazon. The Phrozen website has the mini available at $239.52 (before tax and shipping costs) and is coming from China. The print volume on the Phrozen Mini is 4.7 x 2.6 x 5.2 inches. Adversely, the Elegoo Mars IS available from Amazon, and is 2K Resolution and a print volume of 4.72 x 2.68 x 6.1 inches - and is sold for $229 for Prime (free shipping) - FYI

[@kdm1234gmail]

This is amazing. I wish i could get one. Though i wonder if it would be big enough for some of the things i would like to print. For organization and uplifting the look of spaces without cluttering up rooms. So parents will stop trying to decorate with bulky and unneeded nick nacks.

[@gtoykeeper]

Is the death note model only available by becoming a patreon?

[@fendyranger4081]

Are there any function that will indicate the total number of hours being used by the machine software? At least it will better prepare the user to purchase a new screen before the old ones dies.

[@thebeybladearmory]

Keep a written log

[@mhd112211]

So crazy, only for (almost) 200 dollars!

[@sitoudien9816]

So this uses a lcd screen not a laser or dlp to cure the resin? What about the resin tray? I hear trays cloud after usage and shorten it's life. How long does a tray last?

[@martinmatsekh4989]

Can it do different colours? Also change colours half way through printing?

[@rvashko]

Sorry for dumb question, but am I correct in assuming that the sheet of paper used in the leveling was simply to protect the screen from the print bed? Or is there another purpose? Thx.

[@Immolate62]

So you covered why it's unequal to the others in a variety of ways, but it's advantage was that it's 20-30% faster? Isn't that just tuning? Is it using different technology that makes it faster? It doesn't seem like a compelling case for saving $50.

[@Panzer1398]

but how would you compare this resin printer compared to the conventional anycubic photon? i own neither, but if it's just a question of print speed, i would prefer spending that extra $ for a higher resolution projector and larger print volume...

[@sitoudien9816]

Can you do a video of post build? Curing process, finishes, how clean up resin trays, how to dispose cleaning solutions, gloves, resin.

I think that would depend on what you want to print. SLA is finer detailed but smaller. Resin is also more fragile usually.

[@updfdrakkell143]

my question is what happens with the extra parts once your done making it ant trimming it. do you toss them or can you re melt them
