I'm looking at getting the Mono 6Ks - one big pro thats not mentioned here, Anycubic printers allow you to test multiple exposure settings in one print. That is, you can print 8 calibration models at various exposures in one go!
My Ender 3 has lost its luster and I've been looking at new printers. Resin's mess is still a little offputting but I think if the Creality one drops in price over the Holidays, I'll grab that and give it a try.
I recently upgraded from the PhotonS to the Mono X 6Ks. The fine printing is way better than I am use to. However, the are things I love the PhotonS and wish the 6 Ks had. I may be getting a little picky, but here are the things I think the older PhotonS was better with over the 6 Ks: 1) The PhotonS had the square arm bar. I could the build plate 90 degrees and put it back on. This let the extra resin on the build plate drip down(fairly fast) into the resin pan. You can't do that with the 6 Ks. Maybe I can make an arm attachment to do this again. 2) The 6 Ks build plate top is fairly flat compared to the PhotoS's. The steeper build plate top on the PhotonS helped the resin drip off into the pan below. 3) I miss the three fixed sides and lift-up front on the PhotonS. The 6 Ks top has to be set aside somewhere and I don't have a lot of room. 4) The resin pan hold down screws on the 6 Ks are a pain, since you need to completely unscrew them to get the pan out versus just loosening them up on the PhotonS.
at around 5:23 you said pixel density but meant resolution, as pixel density is the stat that matters, not resolution. It is incorrect to say that pixel density doesnt matter, because that metric is directly tied to the pixel size in micro meters. Very informative video otherwise and I am glad i watched!
Just picked up the halot mage 8k for only 200 from amazon. I was just seconds away from buying the anycubic 6k for 270 when I saw it and with a discount code I found online I got the creality large cure and wash station too. All in for only 350. Cant wait for them to get here.
@@onemansvideos2134 Yeah but I haven't had the chance to use them yet. Look nice and feel good though. I looked around a lot and I don't this you can do better on the price to quality unless you go to a smaller screen. I am used to FDM printers so 10 inches or more for resin was a must.
I started with the Creality LD-002H and then a Halot One, but I ran to the Mono 6Ks when I moved into a larger format. I've had success after success with it for both minis and functional engineering parts. And, I chose Lychee and opted for the Pro license to get access to all of Lychee's advanced settings. You're right about both being great, but I just didn't have the room for something as large as the Mage 8K. My go to resins are Anycubic and Siryatech.
Hello I bought a 6ks and was wondering what slicer do you use? I've tried the photon workshop and chitubox but both crash while saving the sliced file and just wanted to know
I am a starter within the printing game, and thanks to people like your self, get to know how to get started! But! I really would love, if you have time, to say at what temperature should I keep my resin when not in use, the help would be grateful, thanks, UK🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@ElevatedSystems Thank you! thank you for your well needed help, am hope to do stop motion and build faces in blender to be printed and, and feel more understanding on not to spend money to quickly! thanks To your insight! stay amazing, thank you sir! VERY INFORMATIVE CHANNEL!! UK 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks so much for this in-depth comparison as I'm tossing up buying either the Creality or Anycubic printer. I have a traditional 3D printer but am only now venturing into resin printing so your straightforward, non-tech explanations help immensely... though I'm still tempted to buy both just because... ;)
So. How big can you actually print with this printer? Does it all depend on how you cut and slice your model??? whats the biggest anyone has printed with this particular printer?
Those carbon filters only remove odour not all the dangerous volatile organic compounds that are hazardous to health. So not much of an advantage one printer having one.
Im a fan of Creality and I have to say that Halot Mage Pros hardware features are real winners. The carbon filter and resin pump add practicality to the printing process.
Have the Halot Mage… at first I was frustrated by print errors… but once I started using the Halotbox slicer and changed a defective FEP… it’s been phenomenal
Just a minor correction, the pixel size is in um or micro meters. Nanometers are 1000x smaller and are close to the size of atom scale.
Oops, that's more than a minor mistake ☹️ Not sure why I didn't catch the fact that a pixel isn't half the with of a human hair.
My friend, what printer do you recommend for my dental laboratory? I want one that combines power, ease of use, speed, and accuracy

Guess what? The creality one's dropped in price. By a LOT.

That's because Creality machines suck... They always have

You get those yet I'm looking to get the same combo

How's it going? I'm stuck between these two.
I've been watching you for about a year now. In my opinion this is the most underrated tech channel. Keep up the good work!

Haven't you had problems with lychee in 6ks? I don't like workshop very much
@@TheCalaudio No problems at all on any of my printers - Resin or FDM.

Storing it at room temp is fine, just pay attention to the expiration date. Photoresin only has about a 6 month shelf life.

Size does matter, and the Halot Mage Pro proves it. With its impressive build volume, I can dream bigger and create larger.
Elegoo 4mars max or anycubic photon mono x6ks?thanks
Guys, run from halot mage. !!! i have one.
Uh ohhhh, why is this? I'm trying to find one for my preteen kiddo. Scared to buy a hunk of junk. 😢
why?
The Halot Mage Pros early bird price had me sold. Its a real bang for the buck, and Im eagerly waiting for my confirmation email.
Despite software hiccups, the Halot Mage Pro shines with its print quality. Its a true champion in delivering intricate details.
So. How big can you actually print with this printer? Does it all depend on how you cut and slice your model??? whats the biggest anyone has printed with this particular printer?
always satisfy with my ender 3v3 se, as it can provides all I needs. but I think the Creality Halot mage 8k can be my next advanced one.
Printing with the Halot Mage Pro has its software quirks, but thats a small price for the exceptional print quality it delivers.
The Crealitys 8K screen makes textures, details, and minis pop with stunning clarity
Those carbon filters only remove odour not all the dangerous volatile organic compounds that are hazardous to health. So not much of an advantage one printer having one.
Then how would you explain the carbon filters in my Niosh certified respirator? Activated carbon does remove VOCs. You’ve been misinformed.
Overall, it looks like a fantastic printer for both beginners and experienced users. Im seriously considering getting one!
So happy to hear that Creality is reducing prices during the holidays. I gotta buy k1~
Same I'm waiting on my combo
8:42 hey give me my PS4 back
Nice to see you well again! Thanks for the great content as always!
Got our first Bambu P1S 3 weeks ago … currently waiting on the second one to arrive & ordering 2 more in a few weeks! Love this thing!!!
Crealitys Halot Mage Pro takes SLA printing to new heights. Easy setup, minimal fuss - just what I needed in a resin printer.
Super useful, thanks
Im a fan of Creality and I have to say that Halot Mage Pros hardware features are real winners. The carbon filter and resin pump add practicality to the printing process.
Creality wins~
Super love your video!
From miniatures to busts, the Halot Mage Pro delivers stunning results. Despite some software issues, its a resin printing powerhouse.
Have the Halot Mage… at first I was frustrated by print errors… but once I started using the Halotbox slicer and changed a defective FEP… it’s been phenomenal
i got some jelly resin on VAT ?
huh?@@M4r11on
thanks for sharing!
The resin pump on the Halot Mage Pro is like a well-behaved genie - it grants my wishes without the mess. A must-have feature!
what was your MOS bro beans?
11B for 1yr, > 13B for 4yrs, > 68S for 16yrs.
I took the plunge and got the Halot Mage Pro - what a steal! Its specs are impressive and offer more value compared to other popular printers.
Halot mage pro is amazing! It gets me how a flat or supposed flat plate can look like this.
Its not suprise for halot mage is the best seller in Amazon for its affordable price and amazing 8k tech....
Im loving the compact design of this Creality halot mage. It wont take up too much space on my desk.
The resin pump on the Halot Mage Pro is a lifesaver for loading resin. No more spills - just smooth and efficient printing.
Creality sure loves making sure you know your printer is turned on
