Screen's end of life ?

Those black dots ? Yep, screen is dead. You bought it in 2023 ? Either you don't print often, or you're very lucky. Prints don't hold for long across multiple prints. It's perfectly normal, ask yourself : why your printer has a 1 year warranty, except the screen which has a 6 months warranty ? And a

I want to get into 3D printing Miniatures but i don't know what printer to get.

I use a Saturn 3 Ultra and I love everything about it. The new 4 has bells and whistles but for me, I'm all about mechanical reliability. The 3U has a ball screw for the Z-axis, which is not only solid but also precise (ball screws are the same thing that is used in measuring equipment like micromet

Stay away from the Jupiter 2

This is ridiculous. I've Bambu FDM P1S, so as good as FDM gets, and I've Elegoo Saturn 3 Ultra. FDM absolutely does not get close to level of detail SLA does. Not even remotely. And when we're talking about miniatures, were talking about details that are a fraction of a millimeter. FDM is good for t

Need help buying a printer

If you were already leaning S3U, the ELEGOO Saturn 3 Ultra 12K is a good fit because it keeps the big Saturn build volume and is in stock. I would take it over the S4U 16K if the leveling/LCD stuff worries you.

Jupiter 2 Vs anycubic P1 max? any insight to help me make the best choice.

The scales swing often with printer manufacturers. At one point one company will be great and dish out some awesome stuff, at another they'll be dishing out trash and someone else will take over. Like Bambulab came out with the best FDM printers out of nowhere, now they're spiraling downward with un

Anycubic Photon Mono M7 or Elegoo Saturn 3 Ultra

If the Saturn 3 is available, get that. It’s actually better than the Ultra, despite the internet… has better UV uniformity, comes with nFEP/PFA release film as standard (Elegoo discontinued using ACF after the Mars 4 Ultra and Saturn 3 Ultra). Level using my method and you’ll eliminate Z axis compr

New to Resin - which saturn?

I really like the Saturn 3 ultra. I’ve used it a ton and haven’t really ever had to mess with it other than the initial setup. I use chitubox too and have never changed anything from the default settings. I really hate the Saturn 4 build plate and have heard more stories of people having trouble wit
