Gorram Plays with Toxic Chemicals
Introduction
Like a lot of hobbyists, I’ve had half an eye on 3d printing for several years now. Earlier in 2023, I sat and figured out a budget for getting into it and then I looked at the pile of shame… nope, can’t justify that until some of mountain is dealt with thought I. Maybe next year.
Then someone in a local gaming discord upgraded their resin printer and offered their old one for free.
I’m Scottish, I can’t say no to free. They revoke my haggis hunting license.
Now, obviously I was missing a few things to get started properly but the printer is the most expensive part. I got the printer just in time for a weekend when I had a lot to do so deliberately didn’t order the rest of the things I need – I know myself well enough that if I had the means to play around with a new tech toy, nothing else would get done that weekend.
So here we are, two weeks later and I’ve had a delivery of tools etc sitting waiting for a couple of free evenings. I know very little about resin printing and only a little bit more about filament thanks to a work project a few years ago. Let’s give this a shot then shall we?
