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 oh and proper personal protective equipment is must. I use decent mask that will remove solvents from sir.

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