I’ve been doing 3d printing with PLA/PETG/ABS for about 10 years and I’m looking to try resin. I’m not all that familiar with the workflow besides knowing it’s UV cured. Is all curing done in the same machine? What are the reputable brands? What kind of build volumes are available?

    @charmed_electron printer type and size depends on what you want. Consider the software to use on it, printers may only like some slices. I’ve found FDM and Resin printers to be complimentary. I’d agree with person about getting a suitable space. I use my loft, getting a place away from you main living space is needed. Temperature is an issue but settings can account for some of this.
    I think of my FDM printer as mechanical tool to build things. My resin printer feels more like cooking!
