Great video Highlands, I stand by the Elegoo Saturn original it is such a work horse and way cheaper now as well. I would like to get a hold of some Siraya resin in the future I have seen good things from it. This is a great guide on how to print minis and showing the cost 😁
Thank you! We use acetone as a first quick wash to remove the excess of resin and other dirt in the printed miniature so we can use the alcohol bath for a longer period of time before replace it.
Thank you so much for the video! I think it might have been just the thing to push me into getting into 3D printing. I love the minis too! Where is your accent from if you dont mind me asking? The way you say "cost" is adorable.
Hi Dale! haha so good to hear that! Thanks for that, we're Spanish living in Edinburgh (Scotland) and growing up watching American series and television... so my accent is a very weird mix! thanks for that
Oh for sure! We didn't add that value as it comes as part of the hobby for a personal use. But the people who sell printed miniatures profesionally should take into account the labour hours to the final price!
I work on the principal that whatever time it takes pre and post printing, it is still faster than snipping and building plastic miniatures and the removing all the mould lines.

Thank you so much Nathan! It is a great resin. We have been using Siraya for almost a year now and we couldn't be more happy with it. 😍
I have been with you since June 22 and never even realised you had a RUclips channel.
haha we haven't been very active around here for a while but we will try to create more content for RUclips!
After three years of printing, there are still quite a few tips here I haven't considered.
Glad you find them useful!
Really nice video, thank you Highlands !
thanks for watching!
Hi guys!!! What do you guys use to assemble the arms? Glue? Putty?
We normally use Blu Tack!
Nice video :) but why use acetone before going to the isopropyl alcohol bath?

I would add the cost of the time to clean, prepare the stl, the assembling.....it takes time,a lot of time.
