Ive found that the same applies to a lot of things in life. Like if you buy a fancy new panini toaster and stick it in the back of a cupboard as well as choose a hard to clean model, you'll end up never using it because even taking it out is a hassle, nevermind cleaning it.

As a newbie to resin printing, I found the warnings about how toxic the resin is overwhelming. You helped make sense of all the noise and save me a few dollars in the process. I can now print as much as I want, without worrying about my family's health or the impact that I'm having on the environment. Thanks for the great video.

It's true, I did genetics (and I never had a cross contamination), and pretty much everything you do is lab grade, except not having a fume hood, which tbh is overkill at home.. I haven't bought a 3d printer yet but I estimate it would take me perhaps 12 to 15 print goes before I wasn't really conscious of the steps..

For Aussies, I am using the Silcon Pet Feeding mats from Kmart. The large is 60cm x 40cm, so covers a large area. I have a few of them across my work bench and they work great. They are 10 bucks at the time of writing this. They also sell a smaller version for 5 bucks. IPA is expensive and hard to come by especially with Covid. Alternative is Mythelated Spirits, it's way cheaper. However can make clear resin milky colour and can leave white blotches on cured items if not washed off correctly. Resinaway from Monocure is great as well and locally sourced.

I use most of these in one form or other. I appreciate the delineation between reasonable/practical and the practice of "Safety". The primary difference between our setups is that I have a ultrasonic cleaner large enough for the biggest print volume my printer can fill plus a little extra. This means it can fit my vat and build plate too. I don't have to brush anything. Ever. This requires a LOT of IPA (~2.5 gallons) to fill but due to its large volume there is no reason to delineate between "clean" and "dirty" IPA. For storage I used a 5 gallon bucket with sealed lid available from any hardware store. The Ultrasonic cleaner has an integrated drain valve which I have plumbed to pour directly into the bucket after use. A filter can be used to catch any supports, blobs, etc. A bonus to this setup is that I can simply put my hands in the cleaner should I get any resin on them. I don't know if I have more fumes than other setups given the surface area of my IPA is consistent and unchanging (vs. multiple large & small storage containers) but it is being agitated for the duration it is on. I do not use paper towels to wipe clean or even set the FEP on. Too much lint and abrasive properties. Lint free alcohol wipes if needed and only after an ultrasonic dip and air dry. Another difference is that I exclusively use large metal razor blades to clean my build plate (~4 inch blade with handle found in any paint aisle). I'm not sure why but to date I've had more issues with excellent adhesion than I have with poor adhesion. I've had poor experience with putty knives. For me they don't cut it and catching a corner or edge will scratch/gouge the plate. Just some of my thoughts/experience. Thank you for BulgeBuster; I'm testing it out currently.

I jumped into resin 3D printing without a lot of research. I saw the quality difference between FDM and Resin and chose the latter. Tonight was session 1 (failed) and session 2 (failed). I ended the night cleaning and replacing uncured resin back into the bottle as I didn’t want to leave it over night, used a crap load of paper towels, and a few gloves, and had the EXACT same thought about needing an open trash can. I love the trays, tubs, and table liners. This is the type of setup I plan use. Thank you for this video for expediting my efforts to a clean and organized work area. You rock!

I find that using warm/hot IPA or water (contaminated or dirty) close to or just above body temp 98F or 36C. I have also had it work well at around 80F or 27C. You soak the parts in this liquid to soften the resin and most importantly the supports. Warm resin causes the supports to break away from the part, and prevent the supports from chipping off and leaving pot marks all over the part. Once the supports are removed you can use normal room temp IPA to clean the part and a small knife; razor, xacto, or hunting doesn't matter as long as it is sharp and you can use it safely; to gently cut the small residual bumps away from the surface leaving you with a much better surface finish that is flush with your final surface. A heated ultra sonic cleaner works amazing for this, as while it is warming the part, it cleans it to, so that once supports are removed you can rinse the part or let it air dry; trim the bumps and quickly rinse with water or a little clean IPA (to remove any residual debris from fine trimming) and go straight to curing. As for other tips: I found that when I was getting bed adhesion issues, that it was very helpful to wipe or coat the underside of the build plate in a very light coating of resin before starting a print. Usually by dipping my finger in the vat, and smearing it on. This ensures that the build plate is coated completed with no trapped air or thin spots beneath it for the first layer. You can use a brush to do this as well, and I usually do this with the build plate off the unit, but above the vat, so that the resin drip stay in the vat. And to those that would say, wouldn't your get things dirty. No I don't. Like Nerdtronic, I take care of everything that needs two hand prior to interacting with resin at all. Even then when I do, I only use one hand to do so, so the other is clean to the chance of contaminating anything. I hope this helps out others in some way.

Good Channel and advise Michael. I am setting up a larger and more ventilated room for the cleaning process. I use and actual paint respirator mask with charcoal filters that are made for automotive painting. It might be overkill in the slightest, but hey you only have one set of lungs, eyes, fingers etc. As a Youngster in the U.S. Navy and then Army from 1983 to 2000 I painted aircraft, worked on Diesel engines and hydraulic equipment, and worked with large batteries and just in general did a lot of jobs where I was using MEK, Naphtha, and or had my hands around and in Hostile Chemicals and or literally Sh-T. My last military job was plumbing in the Nat Guard. I was both good and bad about using proper protective equipment. at 18 and 19 and those first years we painted F4's and F14's with Polyamide paints, and Polyurethane paints. The old chiefs and petty officers would frequently be painting out on the ramp and hold the gun in their right hand, and their res mask in their left. When they sprayed they would hold up the mask to cover their face and paint. then when they were done applying the layer/coat/area they would pull the mask away. IMHO this was fine, and it worked. The stupid thing was that we were painting the aircraft outside in a ramp area, and had all kinds of personnel working on aircraft 30 to 300 feet in an area. We also painted the polyamide out on the Carrier in the hanger bay while we were underway. As I got older I got more and more friendly towards the idea and use of the Protective Equipment. Especially like you commented on when It gives you headaches and such. That means its getting inside your brain, through your lungs, and if its getting there, then its getting into your kidneys and liver, etc. Now I am a cheapskate also, LOL. And I dont like paying 21 dollars for a gallon of Alcohol so, yea, I am going to try to stretch its service life. So I like the info as you are about 4 or 5 years ahead of me on using these chems, and been 3D SLA printing. We have been doing it for 2 years now on a limited basis for custom archery bow parts, and I really haven't been in on it to much. I was making the custom strings, and my Bus Partner was 3D printing. Now that we are delving into Custom Chess pieces and I am designing large Star Trek models from the original series I have suddenly found myself crash coursing in 3D printing. We have 2 Creality Ender Weed Whacker String melters, which I have little use for so far. I am impressed a little about how much smaller they can make res lines now though. I jut bought a Anycubic M3, and M3 Mac about 2 months ago, and I have been printing for about 5 days now on the first test parts for a Romulan Warbird from The Original Series of Star Trek. I mixed E85 with Denatured Alcohol, and I also used strait E85. The first print parts have errors in them and are being printed so I can adjust the design until I can get them to print into parts that I can use as model parts. I see no difference in the effect of this cleaning method other than #1 the 85 is more toxic in the fume department, but not by much. It does contain Gasoline so that means If I breath the fumes, it is not just alcohol, but gasoline also. We all know, or should know that breathing, snorting, huffing gasoline is not good for the human body, and I mean a big (NOT GOOD FOR THE HUMAN BODY). I had dumb ass friends in the 5th and 6th grade that huffed gasoline and even at that age I couldn't believe how stupid they were, and or how dumb that was. My father and uncles and typically mechanics back then used to wash oil and engine dirt off of their hands with gasoline. I did to in the 1970's because it was a common practice. Then when I got into the Navy I discovered Go-Jo and Mean Green, and things that didn't make the nerves in your hands tingle because of osmosis. Anyway I didn't intend to write an essay here. I just wanted to point out. Safety First. Yea. Share the advice like Michael here, Dont Breath fumes unless its Cinnamon rolls in the oven. Dont bathe in IPA/MEK/Gasoline and paint. Gloves are cheaper than new skin. Facemasks are cheaper than new eyes and lips. Personally I think the Covid masks are inadequate for Denatured A/IPA I have been cleaning stuff with and without the germ masks and I come to find that ventilation is key. If the fumes are not there, and or minimal to start with, the better, and like I mentioned before, I am using a paint res grade mask when cleaning. I have some really good cleaning containers I bought from Home Depot that have O rings in the lid so that keeps the evaporation down, and at the moment I am using E85 which is 3 to 4 dollars a gallon VS 20 to 22. Whatever you use remember its all designed to dissolve plastic, so it can and will kill you and or you loved ones and pets, and or house if handled wrong. Be Safe and keep on Treking.

I can give you guys a awesome tip Don't use those plastic scrapers, they damage your FEP., run your finger over the edge of th scrapper and you see. Get yourself a silicon spatular ( egg spatula/flipper) it works great, is easy to clean and will not damage your fep. Also don't use paper towels to dry the vat , it scratches . Ger some microfiber wipes (fibre optic wipes ) . These will not scratch your FEP and are cheap.

I have my printer in a large tub on top of a table cloth. I print in a spare storage room with carpet, so since everything is in a big tub, if I spill there's not chance of anything getting on the carpet. The silicone matt is in the tub as well so its easy to keep the tub clean. I only print small scale stuff, so an ikea LACK table is large enough to hold everything, and if I need to break things down to put it in storage, it has a small footprint and is easy to get fully cleaned and put away.

I've probably watched this 4 times now and finally did my first print last night. The system works great, I just need a little more practice and I think I'll get it more streamlined but overall it went well. Thanks for the pointers!

Wow you are a godsend. I just recently got a MS5 for my first printer and have been more than a little clueless with it. The way you break things down into simple, easy to follow steps is perfect, and somehting I think a lot of others who are making content on resin printing could take a page from. Cheers!

Nerd-dude,I first needed to build a resin odor mitigation system and your vid on that was super. Then, knowing that I am weeks away from launching my 3dP workspace, I checked this vid out. These tips are invaluable and you made it very simple and straightforward, which is what noobs need. Thanks and I will be following you as I get going with digital sculpture on Zbrush and my soon to be, Saturn printer. Ciao

I already did most of that but the cleaning of the IPA is a bonus for me, I don't use much of it as I spray bottle all the stuff I need to clean including the vat (Elegoo Mars) which means I go through about 1/4 pint of IPA a week if I print every day.

Thank you for the tips. I've just started printing with resin, though I've been using FDM printers for years. The cleanup of the resin prints has been intimidating and actually prevented me from even setting the printer up. I feel a lot more comfortable now in maintaining a clean work area. :)

I found this video to be excellent. I especially like your idea of using rubber mats. One thing I would do differently though is to remove the part from the build plate away from the touch screen on the front of the printer. My luck would have me touch it with the resin covered build plate and get it dirty, maybe even break it. Or I'd slip with the metal scraper and punch a hole in it making for a bad day!

Once you get the routines down it's no big deal. Like making an omlet. It's not without a little mess and you have to be careful not to burn yourself. But in the end it's not that big a deal.

I would note that cleaning the FEP film and the vat like that it's extreme, wipe it gently with a microfiber cloth and use dish soap. Using IPA on FEP could make your next print stick too well to it and increase the forces it has to withstand.
@jaredmoraitis8356
@jaredmoraitis8356 5 ай бұрын
I was wondering about this. I have started having issued with my FEP being too sticky, and this may be due to cleaning it with alcohol. Also, using paper towels on the FEP seems to leave behind a lot of micro-scratches which bugger-up the FEP.

@@Nerdtronic This video helped me discover what was going wrongly with my resin printing. SUNLIGHT! Sunlight was ruining my resin over time and making it kind of "goopy" and also super hard on the FEP sheet. This took so many hours of my time to figure out. Thanks again man! Also, if your affiliate resin was available in Canada, I'd definitely buy some the next time I need som to support you!

Thanks! This is well organized, helpful information which I really appreciate as a beginner. A lot of this is common sense stuff, but it was great to see how you actually do each of these steps on camera rather than just hearing someone say, "clean this with isopropyl alcohol". I can appreciate that a lot of these steps don't need to be shown in every video or once you get to a higher level; but thank you for taking the time to detail all of this for those who are just starting out!

Just as an aside, if you're worried about certain things that you might touch with resin on your gloves, like a spray bottle, just wrap it in cling film (I think you guys call it seran wrap) and you can take that off when you're binning your gloves aswell
