Hello. I am modeller but know nothing about 3D printing. So you buy the model 3D code and the resin materials, can you do individual parts in different colours? Can you print it more than once?
There are two types of resin printers: Filament and liquid resin. I use the liquid resin type. They are better for VERY fine detail down to .01mm the other type is Filament style which is better for large durable objects like tools and displays. The liquid resin requires you to change the liquid resin tank to a different color liquid. The filament style can print different colors easier with a different color spool of plastic wire. Yes once you purchase a file you can print it as many times as you want. They only ask that you don’t give away or sell the files or prints.
Never trust scales dude! One cannot simply adjust scale %, one MUST get the real world dimensions and verify with the measure tool in ones program of choice.
I’ve switched to water washable ABS like resin from Sunlu. I’ll never turn back !! Messing with alcohol and dealing with resin contaminated alcohol is a BIG PAIN IN THE YOU KNOW WHAT. Water with a few drops of detergent in the Elegoo wash/cure station, followed up with a hot water rinse then cure is the only way to go. Difference in detail ?? I’ve noticed very very little difference. Quality stl files give excellent results. My own creations using TinkerCad give slightly diminished detail. That’s a rendering issue, NOT a resin issue. My 2 cents worth 👍🏼👍🏼
Just my opinion, I have used the alcohol clean resin and I have used the water wash resin from Anycubic, I can honestly say I would give up printing if I had to use the alcohol clean resin. I respect guys that use alcohol, but I didn't like using it.
Hi Terry, thanks for watching. I suppose if I had a couple gallons of the stuff to fill my clean and wash station I’d like it better. But for me it was a lot of unnecessary work to clean the standard. I’ll save it for high detail stuff in the future.
Great video I really want one as I used to build Airfix aircraft models when I was young. The thing that scares me is the toxic nature of these chemicals, and I feel kind of limited in a bedroom environment I just cant have it in here too risky, can you do a saftey video, where to place a resin printer, should you have a vent out to the outside or leave a window open?
I do not recommend having the printer in the same room as you are. I did that for a few months and even with air purifiers and an open window it stunk inside the room. I now have my printer in the basement with a hose running outside to vent the fumes.
Very cool and informative for when/if I get into 3d printing. I'll probably go with the water wash 8k cause it cleans with water. Thank you, James. Another great video👍
I don't plan on getting a 3d printer. It's very interesting to watch the video. I'm hoping to make it to the nnl East next year i plan on ordering a t shirt sometime
I watched this video as well, I'm not adamant about the water wash and the other thing. Im going to agree with you that you're not going to split hairs and you say that when the parts are primed & painted, it doesn't matter what wash you're using except the water version because clean up is easier. Love the copper painting on the rims and other components👍🏁
Thanks Juan, I printed them at a 23 degree angle and basically sacrificed the back of it to get the drilled and slotted detail for the fronts. I’ll sand the backs smooth.
I have been having issues with getting the badges on engine valve covers like "Ford" and "Honda" what settings should I mess with? Feel like I did them all. According to the video maybe the standard resin is what I need. Scale is 1/64 lol
@@ScaleModelExperiment lol, I've seen it done. I thought the same and I've also done it. Some are harder than others. I've got the Honda H emblem done. Been trying to get the VTech on the cover
Nice comparison. I use Elegoo abs like in my printers. I really like it, but I started getting contact dermatitis from the resin. I’ve got a bottle of water wash resin to try it. It would be great to not have to deal with the harsh chemicals and IPA.👍🏼👍🏼
That’s a good point, it’s not just the resin itself that is so dangerous to work with. Also highly concentrated alcohol can be harmful to you as well. Good luck with the water wash and be safe. Thanks for watching👍
That's why they tell you to not get it anywhere on your skin. Should ALWAYS use gloves, wear long sleeve shirts, and a mask when working with resin. Water wash or not. It's a sensitizer. You can work with it for months with no effect then all of a sudden one day have adverse effects.
Thanks Skip for watching👍 please don’t be fooled, all of this resin is poison and should be treated as such. I’ve been called out for my lax safety in my videos so I’ll do a safety video very soon.
I have a Saturn 3 (non-Ultra), and I use the Standard 8k exclusively. It's a great resin, and the details and quality are top-notch. $22 or so on Amazon.
Hi Shooter, so we basically have the same machine with the only difference being the self leveler. It is a great printer. Do you use the wash and cure with alcohol or pickling jars or? Thanks for watching👍
@@ScaleModelExperiment I use the Mercury X Wash/Cure station. I also have a Mars 3 Pro to print smaller things. By the way, you "forced" me (lol) to buy the Hoonigan, printing the body now, I have some metallic red paint to paint it with.
@@ScaleModelExperiment I won't be able to do the seatbelts like you did, and I won't do the carbon, but I have some pretty cool color ideas. I'll be looking forward to your progress so I can see what direction I want to go in.

I plan to mock one up for a test fit into the chassis. Something tells me that it isn’t going to fit.

That’s another resin I haven’t tried (Sunlu). I’ve heard a lot of people use that as well. I’ll have to try it out.
Nice comparison. The difference is so close and it sounds like less hassle and chemicals.
For sure! That’s why I prefer the water wash!
Great info. I have been wondering about the resin. Your videos have been a great help talking me into getting a printer.
Hi Scott, I was wondering myself what all the hype was about with standard resin. Now I know! Thanks for watching👍

I’ve seen a lot of you are using the Sirayah tech resin. I’ll have to give it a try. Thanks for watching👍

Thanks for watching and supporting the channel Carl. I’d love to see you sporting a shirt at the show😎

Hi Ray, yes the water wash is just easier for me to clean the parts. Still messy and dangerous but easier.
Great video!!!! Never heard of "LA Awesome". Thanks for sharing.
Hey Mike, LA is dollar store degreaser. Works well to cut the slime on the parts. 👍
Nice honest opinion thanks for the look enjoyed .went back and voted lol
Thanks for watching Deen👍 I’ll go check your vote.
Did you run calibration tests for each resin to dial in exposure time?
I did not run calibration tests. I should have for optimum performance. I used an exposure of 2.4 seconds for all of the resins.
Great video comparison, definitely taking notes. If you haven't already printed the suspension can you show the orientation for disc brake,
Thanks Juan, I printed them at a 23 degree angle and basically sacrificed the back of it to get the drilled and slotted detail for the fronts. I’ll sand the backs smooth.
Hi James, thank you I'm really learning a lot from your videos,👍
@@Juan_Rivera835 of course Juan!
I've been using the Anycubic Water Wash for a while, but I must say, I'm blown away by the sharpness of the Elegoo standard.
Agreed, when you have the right file the detail really pops. The Elegoo water wash 8k was no slouch.
I use sirytech water washable in the original saturn, it all in the settings for the details you will get
Cool Steve, I’ve seen your prints. Good quality stuff. I may have to give it a try. Thanks for watching 👍

Nice!! once i started 3d printing i cant stop.I like the water wash only cause its less harmful but overall the standard is better in detail
