I've been using the 8k aqua amazing results but expensive, What setting have you used for the sunlu so I could try ? As in later height and exposure time and so on please. Love the vids btw mate
I love the sunlu white and grey. The grey looks like sculptors clay rather than grey/blue plastic of Anycubic. Very good price. I find the white needs to be under exposed a little compared to the grey - not by much.
At this point, the internal heating really does need to be a standard feature for the next generation of resin printers. It's really a no-brainer. Speaking of next gen, I saw elsewhere ( I believe that Fauxhammer may have put out the video reporting this) that someone in China leaked news that Elegoo is looking to put out a DLP printer that confusingly is labeled as the Mars 4, despite the different UV exposure technology. Is this something you've heard anything about?
I switched from siraya tech fast to sunlu not long ago. Holy crap, I'm basically saving HALF of what I was spending for resin that seems good enough to me. The biggest difference I could tell is siraya tech prints more easily, like I notice I can use a minimum amount of supports with it. But sunlu, I gotta go crazy with supports. I noticed the mixing the abs-like resin made it more akin to siraya tech's quality. Great stuff.
@@AsimPaints I use pretty minimal supports for my Sunlu. However I have found if you set your exposure to perfect with a test print often prints will fail. I just got into the habit of slightly over exposing by 0.05 - 0.10 seconds on all my resins and my failure rate has dropped to near zero with any resin.
@@slimjim7411 well thats the nead thing about 3d printers, just changing te room in you own house, even with exact the same temperature, it fucks already your printer up. (setting wise). so i dedicated one corner of my DND Room for the printer, far away from my computer. but i might buy a closed from IKEA (The white modular one). its deeper then normal in space, so i just put it inside with a big placemat under the printer. and just put the wires neatly around to the box. (the one with 4x plugslots, dont know the name, not an native speaker). put a long cable to the closest possible wall outlet en start printring! however i might put a hook on the backside to roll the cable on it after finished printing.
I love the sunlu resin its usually the cheapest on Amazon and its always given me great prints NOW on the other hand thanks for reviewing a printer that I'm gonna have to look into my wife should love that lol
The fact you mentioned it has a glass screen was a big deal to me. Replacing those screens because of damage from the solid pieces getting pressed into it is a real issue, especially at some $200 per screen. Could you do some accuracy tests on this machine with some generic resins? Seems to be the thing missing on so many reviews is simple x-y measurements with calipers and how far off it is from desired values.
Can you share your Sunlu resin setting in lychee slicer? I'm new to resin printing and I'm using Lychee slicer. Can I use the Sunlu resin standard preset setting in Lychee slicer?
whats your settings with this printer? i been fiddeling around with the settings i cant seem to find one that just works for everything? maybe you can help? arwsome video btw! 🤘
Hi bud, I got the sunlu abs like yesterday I'm having trouble getting it to adhere to the build plate at 30s I need to use 40 on Saturn 8k and the cones of calibration are printing all on the success side and still 2 on the fail side from 2.5 all the way down to 1.9 I'm getting same print result it's so weird
I'm assuming your build plate is level. If the resin is sticking to the fep, try using your vat cleaning feature. You might have something on the fep. You can also try roughing up the build plate a little with some sand paper. Or just clean the heck out of it with IPA.
hey creative, great video. i like the printer. Love the design, but kinda waiting for DLP printers to become more common. With all the printing you do how often do you change lcd screens? is it a pain or is it a non issue for you.
Thanks! I'd like to see more DLP also, but I think it's gonna be a while. I'd like to see companies actually test the machines rather than send it to "influencers" who never review it like they did the Emake. That was a disaster! Changing screens is really simple. I don't have to do it often though.
Have you ever measured the actual print speed of your GKtwo in mm/h with this standard resin? I have a hard time finding any figures for this information on the internet in the 16 months since this printer came out! In comparison, it's very easy to find real-world examples on RUclips, FB groups, Reddit, etc. showing the printing time on the Saturn 4 Ultra (50 mm/h @ 50 microns average with a standard resin) which is a 3D printer so new that many people who pre-ordered it still haven't received it yet!
So, 900 for the printer is a bit steep BUT.. with it heating the resin to reduce failures it may be worth it. I also like the additional depth/shield around the print surface so its not dunking the whole mess into the vat. May have to look into this and the resin.
I know the price is a bit much but I like the features and print quality is amazing compared to other printers. The resin is top notch as far as I'm concerned.
Big fan of your videos been binge-watching them all and it's inspired me to build and paint my first 3D statue which I've uploaded on my channel. Thanks for everything you do for this hobby!
okay completely unrelated lol but did I understand correctly at about 12:29 in this video that I can just keep printing and not wash and cure right away every time something comes off the build plate? I've seen mixed discussions on this some say you can others say not to. It would be really nice to be able to wash and cure in batches.
Yeah thats completely a myth. I wait for days or weeks sometimes to wash and cure pieces....because I get lazy at times. lol As long as you keep the pieces away from uv then you should be fine. I do use a toothbrush to scrub my pieces whether or not I wait. It's a good practice to get any residue off.
Awesome! That definitely answers my question. It'll be so much nicer to be able to just do them in batches. Traded a fdm printer for a resin printer and the build volume is small compared to what I'm used to. My current fdm printer is the Neptune Max lol compared to the anycubic mono 4k. I like big models so it's a lot of times one to two pieces at a time on the build plate. I'd rather just print them all and then wash/cure everything. @@TheCreativeCollector
@@TheCreativeCollector Turned it back on and no promts...oh the pain.....GK 3 better solve that one...or a software update or something...not a total loss there were two busts in the print and one is finished, only the top of the other is kaput...glass is half full...thx anyways
I have the exact printer and use the same resin but I'm losing the tiny fine details in my prints and sometimes the pieces are just not fitting tightly together. Can you post the settings you use?
But is it worth the difference in price to justify the price of a phrozen mighty and mini 8k? Yep, its cheaper to buy both than the gk two. Does it cool the resin? My work area is very warm.
Ive used the Mighty and mini 8k and Im not impressed, so I say yes it is. And no printer cools the resin. That would lead to failure after failure. What the GKtwo does, is keeps the temp consistent for better printing quality.
Hey! glad I found this video.. maybe you can help me out.. I just bought the GKTWO and got it yesterday in the mail. I've seen a bunch of people reviewing this printer with nothing but great things to say about it, which is what made me choose to buy it. I also bought some bottles of Sunlu resin to try out. After I got the printer set up, I sliced some models with the default GKTWO profile in Chitubox. The print was much smaller than your 8 hour print on your video, but it took almost 14 hours to print... I left it over night, came back to check on it in the morning and it had failed. I cleaned up the vat and build plate, releveled the build plate and tried an even smaller print that said it was going to take 12 hours... it also failed. After cleaning the vat again, I tried a very simple flat tile print that I know would only take 20-30 minutes tops on my Saturn, but it said it was going to take almost 3 hours.. it also failed... I've been pretty frustrated with this printer, since every video I watched said it worked right out of the box with no effort. Is there a specific profile I should try using with the slicer? I've tried downloading the Uniformation slicer off their website to try that out, but when I try to open the installer it gives me an error and wont let me install... needless to say, I'm pretty bummed out, I had high hopes for this printer but have been running into nothing but problems so far... any suggestions you've got would be very much appreciated.. thanks!!
Sorry to hear aboutt all of your troubles. I wouldn't know where to start unless I know things like your settings and all. You can message me through Instagram and I can try and help you.
Any update on wear of the plastic tabs? Does the vat still sit tight? How about the plastic that keeps the build plate in place? Close to ordering one of these but I'm worried it relies too much on plastic on vital parts.
I've been using Sunlu's standard and ABS Like for a long time now for printing minis and its fantastic, probably got thru 10-15kg opf the stuff. I only have a 4k printer but I have been very happy with the results. The prints do seem to have a slightly glossy finish, but if you are painting the prints you would never know.
Yup been using Sunlu for the last few projects. Have you had to adjust any settings for the Beige vs Grey? I know when I went from Elegoo grey to Elegoo beige I had to adjust the bottom layer time by 1 second for some reason.
@@TheCreativeCollector Lets see, the build platform is very similar. The resin tray uses a slide mechanism similar to the form 2. Even the screen front and start button look similar. The whole structure looks similar as well. I realize the printing methods are different, the printing size is different. But the similarities are there.
The Uniformation has a vat heater and internal file storage with a completely different UV light source as well as the carbon filtration system, so no it's nothing compared to the Form 2. Looks maybe, but printing components its a lot different. I had the Form 2 and it's way different.
@@TheCreativeCollector The form 2 also has a vat heater (it won't start printing until the right temp. is reached) and also has internal file storage. The form does not have carbon filtration (wish it did). And I already recognized the different printing styles. If you compare the build plates you'll even see more similarities. Aluminum plate, plastic shroud. And I you look you'll even see a drip tray going around both of the build plates. So, they are similar. Never said they were the same. Also a big difference is more moving parts for the form 2. An automated moving tray and a scraper.
Thanks to one of your videos I am not afraid to use auto supports on chitubox but always looking for islands. To be honest I cant believe that you don't have more problems with islands in your prints like the one you have on the punisher torso on the connection to the head.
Hi. Just found your channel a week or so ago and love your work. I have just got my first large format resin printer, a Saturn 8k, (not the Saturn 2). I ordered some of this resin before I found this video and am also very impressed by it. The printer is currently printing overnight the base for Black Widow by VX Labs. I have already done the head and smaller items and am planning on printing the legs and torso tomorrow, then I can begin assembly. I am blown away by the quality of the printing. I used to think my old resin printer was good. Being in the UK if I use you Amazon affiliate link do you still get a small kick back. If so I'll use it next time I need resin. Keep up the good work. Best wishes, Mark
To be honest, 8k resin is a marketing ploy. There's no difference in details between it and any other resin. I'm using Sunlu, and it's super cheap and damn good on details. Check affiliate links in the description.
Gktwo is like a top tier printer selling at a mid end price, I think it has a high cost performance value and adding to its amazing performance you probably will be very happy with having it
What resolution do you normally print in? When you go down, do you have some type of calculation? I have only printed in 0.05, how would the time change?
super video gefählt echt gut.evl währe ein link zu den druckfiguren schön .ich selber habe den elegoo 8k drucke mit anykubil und elefoo resin. werde das sunlu bestellen und testen bin mal gespannt.
I know you spoke about it in the video, but do you feel that the heated vat works well? I'm looking into getting my first resin printer but living in New England it gets to be cold and this would definitely be kept in the garage (probably not used if it is ridiculously low temps). Having that filter and a heated vat are big seller points for me right now
@@TheCreativeCollector one more question, do you feel like there is enough room in this printer to put in an elegoo mini carbon filter (or two)? I know other SLA machines there is just enough space to put them in there for extra protection
Yay!! You finally got one! You're gonna love it! 😊 You might be late to the party, but your late review got more views than my early review 6 months ago! 😆🤣😂
@@TheCreativeCollector yeah, it's pretty awesome! Also, if you get their ultrasonic cleaner, the whole buildplate fits into the top and the prints can be washed while their on the buildplate and everything gets cleaned at once. Lol, I don't do that because I don't want to pour 7L of alcohol in there at once 🤣
@@TheCreativeCollector I'm working on it lol! I've been painting little things that aren't really RUclips material and a couple of commissions that were NSFW versions so those couldn't go on RUclips either hahaha! Very soon though. I've got one that I have to do for Mia this weekend but it's not painting. 😆
@@TheCreativeCollector also, not a wash n cure. It's two separate pieces. A 7Liter ultrasonic cleaner that works amazingly well and a curing chamber that needs some R&D. If anyone will fix something though, it's UniFormation! Everything I've ever asked them to fix, has been done.😀
So i came for the CHEAP printer and I'm still waiting... ELEGOO Saturn 2 Resin 3D Printer with 10'' 8K Mono LCD 600USD Uniformation LCD 3D Printer 8K Printer 10.3" 1000USD
Uniformation has a lot more features hence a bit more pricey in comparison but reasonably I assume since other printers giving the same features cost much much more
I've been using the 8k aqua amazing results but expensive,
What setting have you used for the sunlu so I could try ?
As in later height and exposure time and so on please.
Love the vids btw mate
Check out my Secret Settings video. Those are basic settings I use for all of my printers with different resins.
I love the sunlu white and grey. The grey looks like sculptors clay rather than grey/blue plastic of Anycubic. Very good price. I find the white needs to be under exposed a little compared to the grey - not by much.
It’s hit and miss for me with this stuff the finished cured prints feel so rubbery and loss of details no matter how long I expose for
That's odd. I've never had that issue with it. My prints turn out clean and crisp.
Great review. Not worth the upgrade for me but an interesting printer. I love Sunlu resin.
At this point, the internal heating really does need to be a standard feature for the next generation of resin printers. It's really a no-brainer.

Sunlu has been my go to resin for about a year as well.
Do you need the resin at 27 Celsius? That’s 80 degrees Fahrenheit!

super video gefählt echt gut.evl währe ein link zu den druckfiguren schön .ich selber habe den elegoo 8k drucke mit anykubil und elefoo resin. werde das sunlu bestellen und testen bin mal gespannt.
Thanks but the Punisher figure I printed is an exclusive of mine. More on that in another video.
I know you spoke about it in the video, but do you feel that the heated vat works well? I'm looking into getting my first resin printer but living in New England it gets to be cold and this would definitely be kept in the garage (probably not used if it is ridiculously low temps). Having that filter and a heated vat are big seller points for me right now
Oh yes! It makes a huge difference in keeping the temperature consistent. The resin is thinned out perfectly and helps keep layer lines down
@@TheCreativeCollector awesome, thank you so much! Now to convince the wife that this is a necessity lol
@@TheCreativeCollector one more question, do you feel like there is enough room in this printer to put in an elegoo mini carbon filter (or two)? I know other SLA machines there is just enough space to put them in there for extra protection
Is the STL for the Punisher Bad Day for Ninjas available for sale? I would definitely print that.
This will be an exclusive for my patreon members.
Yay!! You finally got one! You're gonna love it! 😊 You might be late to the party, but your late review got more views than my early review 6 months ago! 😆🤣😂
I'm loving this thing!
@@TheCreativeCollector yeah, it's pretty awesome! Also, if you get their ultrasonic cleaner, the whole buildplate fits into the top and the prints can be washed while their on the buildplate and everything gets cleaned at once. Lol, I don't do that because I don't want to pour 7L of alcohol in there at once 🤣
Yeah I think Mia is getting me the wash and cure station as well. I'm interested to check that one out. Hey! Don't you have a video to make? lol
@@TheCreativeCollector I'm working on it lol! I've been painting little things that aren't really RUclips material and a couple of commissions that were NSFW versions so those couldn't go on RUclips either hahaha! Very soon though. I've got one that I have to do for Mia this weekend but it's not painting. 😆
@@TheCreativeCollector also, not a wash n cure. It's two separate pieces. A 7Liter ultrasonic cleaner that works amazingly well and a curing chamber that needs some R&D. If anyone will fix something though, it's UniFormation! Everything I've ever asked them to fix, has been done.😀
Sunlu is really good
Yes it is!
Where do you go to get your resin settings?
Funny you should ask that. Be sure to check out my newest video coming out today!
@@TheCreativeCollector I’m hoping that means you’re updating GKtwo info on the next vid
This printer costs $1,223 dollars. I wouldn't call that cheap.
Who said it was cheap? Read the title. Cheap RESIN. And depending on where you live the printer is $899.
So i came for the CHEAP printer and I'm still waiting...
ELEGOO Saturn 2 Resin 3D Printer with 10'' 8K Mono LCD 600USD
Uniformation LCD 3D Printer 8K Printer 10.3" 1000USD
Who said anything about a cheap printer? It says cheap resin....not printer.
Uniformation has a lot more features hence a bit more pricey in comparison but reasonably I assume since other printers giving the same features cost much much more
