Where to find reasonably priced miniatures?
Buy a 3d printer I'm not being absurd. Based on your needs, budget, and time frame, you'd be best off getting a 3d printer. You even have options: FDM (PLA) printer - a bambu A1 mini is $220, plus a 0.2mm nozzle for like $20. Filament is $30 a spool and you can get like 300 minis per spool. The qual

3D printer recommendations?
Elegoo Mars 5 4K 3D printer for Resin printing. Bambu Lab has some great FDM printers but I think resin is the way to go for the scale / detail.

Help. Im losing my mind.
it looks like you selected the function called UV test. It's a test used to see if your bulbs are working correctly, and then you tried to print on top of the uv test. The elegoo mars 5 is an excellent machine, but you apparently want it to work while learning absolutely zero about how it works. Lik

Replacing FEP with ACF
ACF has it's downsides, namely causing fine vertical lines on smooth surfaces. There was such a backlash against it, Elegoo stopped using ACF on new printers. No Mars 5 or Saturn 4 model uses ACF. nFEP/PFA however is a straight upgrade from FEP, and is cheaper than ACF. And yes, it uses the same ten

I'm a beginner, do you have any recommendations for resin 3D printers?
I too wanted better prints going from a filament printer to resin, i did a elegoo mars 5 and went with water washable resin and have had fantastic results The water washable has been great little to no smell and no IPA to clean up or buy.

best resin 3d printer for a beginner, which one should I get?
Just seconding the Mars vote. I only started printing this month, I bought the Mars 5 Ultra bundle with a wash/cure station and it's been pretty smooth sailing. I took the time to read up about supports, use the recommended settings with some minor tweaks, and overall it's gone really well. Just mak
