Tip: Use grow tents with accompanying air extraction and filtration systems. They are designed to be easy to control temperature and to filter the air they pull out. As an added bonus, if your neighbors get confused and think you're using them as actual grow tents and you get raided, you can use it as an actual grow tent after, as the cops won't come back after finding your 3d printing setup the first time they come to check ;)

I have a serious question as you seem like a guy with experience. I was expecting that resine 3D printing will drop the price of minis but when I go to Etsi it's like they look at GW prices and drop it by 10%. So my question is, is it so expensive to 3D print that GW prices minus 10% is the minimum you can sell for or small 3D printer businesses rather sell less but with more margin. Because right now it seems that free market and competition don't apply to 3D printing?

But if you have noticed that used cars rising and staying in price, NY and Cali real estate soaring in prices even though there is a max exodus, fast food companies raising their prices and so on.... the traditional free market is ceasing to exist. Business do not drop prices but rather adjust price to marginally different rates. I am a business analyst and this trend is not going away. What you and i were taught in school about economics is so different than what is happening lol

I was expecting to be yelling at my monitor, but you did a great job at a beginners overview of 3D printing, especially for the miniature hobbyists. I love that you even cover print failures, not that those ever happen. ;) One recommendation I'd add for exposure calibration is the Cones of Calibration test. It really does take the guess work, and gives clear indicator of best setting.

There've been a few other guides that I've found useful, but this one answered those last few questions I had and helped me make my decision. So again, thank you.

i mean it's not a TON of effort to protect yourself. wear like a N95 mask while working with the Resin itself, and use gloves. If that is far more effort than you're willing to put in, then yeah 3d printing won't be the hobby for you. At least not Resin printing, you may enjoy FDM printing a lot more, it's also more versatile; there are so many different filiments and such for a thousand different use-cases. Resin printing is very useful for when you need to print something smaller with a great level of detail.

For keeping it clean i bought some cheap plastic for construction/painting and clamp it to the board. Resin is messy, once Ive cleaned most of it. I blast the surface with uv (keeping the printer and other resin i dont want wrongly cured out of the way) When the plastic sheet is to messy i just switch it to a new one. Another tip is running tools used for resin in the wash and cure station to remove unhardened resin. The sprue tip was a great idea. I will try that instead of trying to get a corner with the silicon scraper.

6:54- So I understand that I am not the “typical consumer”! So I wouldn’t say anyone would “have to” go to the length that I went to get my 1st and 2nd printers……. But I also get very annoyed when I spend a good deal of money on anything and it doesn’t do what it promised!!! So I spent a whole year researching all kinds of 3D printers and I picked anyone and everyone’s brains for their likes and dislikes of each printer on all the SM pages before I finally bought my 1st printer! And then that again for 6 months for my 2nd printer!!! But it was worth it “to me” because to this day I still love both of them and they still make some awesome prints!!!

​@@PhilosophyofElivagar he bought a heated belt used for keeping fermentation vats/barrels warm and wrapped it around the resin vat. This way you can warm up the resin in the vat in low temperatures. The warm resin is more... fluid (English is not my native language, sorry) so it works better during printing than cold, thick resin that may not form properly during the process. I believe the exposure times can be a bit shorter also, as the cold resin requires more energy to cure, but it's just my guess

A useful tip is to make a plexiglas scraper/prybar for removing prints from the plate. The plates on cheaper printers are often aluminium or other softer material. Using a Plexiglas scraper won't scratch the surface as opposed to a metal spatula. A very scratched baseplate will over time make it harder to remove the supports, cause they embed themselves into the grooves.

I use my resin 3d printer in my shed as I had heard the fumes can get a bit overwhelming, though I don't find them to be so, it's better to be safe than sorry. The first few prints (aside from the test print) kept failing and failing and failing, I was getting frustrated, but I did figure out why that was... I was printing in the winter. It was simply too cold in my shed for the printer, so, I got myself a cheap portable heater which is strong enough on low to heat my entire shed and since then failures are fewer and further between. I also lashed out the extra $$$ and got a wash and cure station and my god are fun to use as well as practical. But you can get away with using an alcohol bath and manually scrubbing so long as you are careful and using the sun to cure so long as you are prepared to wait for quite a while to make sure it is cured all the way through. I do wish I could afford one of the newer printers on the market though (I got mine in 2020) as they are getting more reliable and better quality prints from what I saw. My FDM printer I use in my house and I've never had a problem with heat or fumes or anything like that. I use PLA as well. I used to have a profile that was actually perfect for printing minis, though not as good as resin they are definitely capable of making ok minis. Unfortunately I have since lost that profile for my slicer but I think I should be able to find it again. But what I mainly would use FDM for is terrain and "dungeon" tiles where fine detail really isn't a major concern besides you can still get good results. ATM I cant use my printers as my resin one has a busted control panel (my fault I'm afraid), and the FDM one has a clogged hotend and the plastic is at a point where it is impossible to get it out. Luckily I do have a replacement hotend but the control panel has been a little harder to get. Oh well hopefully soon I will have both up and running again and my 3D printing adventures can continue. One last thing is Cults3d is also a great website to get STLs they have a ton of free high quality models (as well as some low quality ones) as well as paid ones.

Try curing your washing containers after stirring them up. It'll turn the suspended polymer molecules into sediment heavier than the medium they're in. It's not 100 % effective, but getting most of the suspended resin out of your cleaning medium really does help. Putting cleaning medium into the sun until it evaporates for safe disposal is a waste of material. I've got a plastic water bottle with ultra concentrated resin sludge that's entirely made up of the dregs I have removed from my cleaning medium using a plastic syringe. I'll let that cure one day and reduce my cleaning medium waste by something like 80 - 90 %.

Water washable resin does not mean you rinse off the print in your sink, or that you can pour your used rinse water down the sink. All liquid resin is toxic. You have to take the contaminated water/ipa to a disposal site that accepts liquid toxic materials, or pour the used resin contaminated liquid into a disposable tray and set outside to evaporate the liquid while the sun cures the resin into a disposable solid. As the liquid is toxic make sure your evaporation tray is away from children and pets as anything that drinks/touches the liquid will die/get very sick.

As a person who never 3d printed; I have a question: Wont you scratch the build plate when you use a metal spatula to remove the print?

some build plates can have scratch marks after long use, but it don't affect the prints as the only thing stuck to the base is the support tree base. Some times this can even help with adhesion :)

Hi I am Kapil Meena from India, I have recently bought Elegoo Saturn 3 Ultra 12K printer. I have a very big doubt about the colors to paint my models. I am planning to use Acrylic Colors but it should be water-based or Alcohol-based? I need to use them for spray paint and brush and I am also planning to buy liquid lacquer and primer.

now all its left is to release some of your models as digital :D i'm sure there would be a lot of people interested in those and printing them at home, i know i am!

Would you know what is happening when the supports somehow print but then dont print the actual miniature in one specific area?

The better the calibration, temperature, resin, quality of light you have the less problems like this you will have. It can be any one of them. Easiest "quick fix" is having thicker supports. But it can also be curing time, so doing a calibration test can be worth a shot. But it might not be the real solution to the problem. There's a lot of trial and error to 3d printing.

@@SquidmarMiniatures ok thanks alot for the advice I appreciate it I'll try thickening the supports and changing the curing time and then see what happens

Biggest problem I had with resin printers is the high bar of entry it has. The printers are not cheap, the resin is rather expensive (and is used up quiet fast), you need a lot of additional gear like protective gear, cleaning materials and some way of curing the prints, but all that additional cost will eventually be worth it once you printed its price in models. HOWEVER too many people who are fans of 3D printing really love to ignore all the effort that goes into printing your own minis. They love to advice people to start printing their own warhammer models using stls that are too close to being copy right infringements for some peoples likings. 3D printing Models will save you money, but only once you printed enough minis to counter all the expenses you have when getting started. Also all the money you save with 3d printing your own models is countered with all the time and work you have to put in to print them.

You can get printers that print at 30 microns for like $300 now, all the other stuff can be bough for cheap if you are willing to do a bit of DIY, a single print can save you hundreds if you make it 300mm tall and from assembled parts so it scales beyond minitures and into larger models that would normally cost hundreds for unpainted versions.

Personally, I prefer to use water washable resins. Yeah, they have their downsides, but it saves a lot of the hassle of post-processing
