Resin printing "arms race" over?

Same as before. Expect 12 months between cycles. This year was odd, printers got released on a shorter cycle. The Saturn 4 Ultra 16K was probably supposed to be the Saturn 5, but Elegoo released it early (only 7-8 months after the Saturn 4/4 Ultra). Probably because Uniformation was releasing the 16

Was thinking of buying a H2D but friends are warning me away from Bambu?

They also keep producing spare parts. No idea if that will continue, but as a comparison, my Saturn 3 Ultra, which I bought last year, has a dead screen and Elegoo has stopped manufacturing them. I can find one third party or buy off of aliexpress, but you're talking about like $130 for something th

Looking to replace my current printers. Need input from professionals

Yeah Anycubic long term support is ass. I own an M3 Premium and they ended support for them almost 2 years ago, yet I can still order parts (other than LCDs) for my Saturn 2s from Elegoo... which are the same age as the M3 Premium. Heygears is supposed to open up some of their settings later this ye

Probably should put a caveat there. Compared to filament printing, particularly for detail you can get out of the box. I have the elegoo saturn 3 ultra and ca highly recommend them. Elegoo sells returns and refurbished units on eBay for a discount as well. Out the door with all gear and material id

First 3D Printer for 1:24 Miniatures – Is the Phrozen Mini 8K S the Right Choice?

Saturn 3 non-Ultra. 19x24um pixel, close to the 22um pixel of a Mini 8K S. Much better UV uniformity, full PWM UV control (Mini 8K S doesn't have that). Moddable gcode. Full wait time support (Mini 8K S doesn't respect wait time after print). Adjustable Z axis offset (or use my leveling method to el

Finally finished painting my first Combat Patrol

Right now, an Elegoo Saturn 3 (wife bought me it in the Christmas sale for £170) but I originally had an Anycubic Mono that was super reliable; just slower due to the smaller build plate. I got that for about £130 with the wash and cure station during a Black Friday sale a few years back. I use chea

Need help choosing between the two. Want to print big stuff, but also minis and not lose a lot of detail. Which would you recommend? Sonic Mega 8ks? Or Photon mono m7 Max?

I just bought my second resin printer today. Went with the Saturn 3 Ultra for a number of reasons. First of all its tried and tested. Same quality prints, its got fewer of the new fancy parts that always seem to have issues. And just overall buck for bang. Its on sale rn on elegoos site for 285$ whi

Looking for an Elegoo OEM 10.1" 4K Mono LCD or something comparable.

The FEP you can probably get some other generic resin printer film and use that, but getting a replacement screen doesn't really make much sense IMO. You might be able to reach out to elegoo support and see if they have any any left but usually screens are only available for around 3 years post laun
