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?

    Besides the need for clean air to deal with the solvent, does an active printer smell the way say ABS does?

      @charmed_electron sorry, I haven’t printed with Abs but yes it does smell. I can imagine Abs smells slightly acrid this is much more of a solvent smell. The smell of spilled resin and from printing can take some time to clear. Hence the need to separate from your living space.
