Mars 4

Elegoo Saturn 3 \ Saturn 3 ultra if you need smth bigger. Elegoo mars 4 ultra if small one. All 3 are good budget printers. Good resin for minis - Anycubic abs-like pro 2. Durable, tough, pretty cheap

I use elegoo mars 4. It does it job, it s a rather simple machine. It s also made in china, so expect some problems, and that a few parts (fep but also screen) are consumables that u have to change once in a while. You can get one for fairly cheap and l see very few reasons to buy a more expensive o

I recommend the mars 4 ultra, but to change the fep for the mars 4 non ultra out of the box. The mars 4 ultra comes with ACF film which is cloudy and can reduce print sharpness. The mars non ultra 4 has a clear fep. Very easy to change. Or just live with the cfa film, its less sharp but not by a mas

I have an elegoo mars 2 pro. I've had it a while now buts it's been fantastic really. I spent £200 on it and I think another £100 or so on the matching wash and cure station. If you use the low odour resin you shouldn't need much ventilation as most newer printers come with built in ventilation

If you need high detail look at resin printers elegoo mars are cheap to get into. Not super durable, but they are high detail. If you are looking for filament, get a Bambu.

Personally, I have 2 Elegoo Mars 4 Max printeds and an Elegoo Saturn 4 Ultra, I love them both! One of my Max printers just had the screen die, but I had gotten a lot of us

generally speaking the "cost" to do resin 3D printing is mostly all in up front costs. as an example. last summer I bought the elegoo mars 5 ultra resin printer. was on sale (memorial day? maybe 4th of july) for under $250. I also got a combo deal for their mercury wash/cure station. think that was

If it's just for minis, printers like the elegoo Mars series are totally fine. Right now I use the mars 4 and I printed 4 armies and 6 warbands in the last 3 years. But it's important to have a place for it. It's smelly and the fumes are not good for your health. Temperature is another problem. Prin
