    Well this is my printing setup. One Elegoo Saturn resin print, one Elegoo Jupiter resin printer and one large Ender 6 FDM printer. My Jupiter resin printer is larger then my FDM printer lol.

    Hey guys,
    Just out of curiosity, which material used cuts down on warpage and UV degradation? Also, what would be a good starter printer for 1:96 static models? I would like to print a USS NAUTILUS for display.

    I have two Formlabs Form 2's. 100X more reliable than my three filament printers. Interesting that you two experienced the opposite. The Form 2 knows what resin cartridge you put in and automatically adjusts everything.

    Yea I been printing with the smaller Saturn printer for a while, but you need to setup resin printer for each type of resin you use which is a pain, alot more them my filament printer. Then you can do everything 100% correct and the resin print fails for no dam reason. but all the bad points are overruled by the fast speed of the print and how good it dam looks. The only thing I mad about is I wish Elegoo sold the 500mm Z height module now so I can print at 500mm sections. But I need to wait till next year for that. I plan on using Siraya Tech nylon black resin. I need to make sure I get my buddy over to help me lift the box when it comes as 118 pounds is to much for me alone.

    Finally getting my new 3D printer

    Wow after waiting for 10 Months, Elegoo finally got my printer in the US. I should get it next week. The printer I got was the Elegoo Jupiter resin 3D printer. Its a very large and heavy printer, shipping weight is 118 pounds. Yea that is dam heavy. This printer is a modular 3D resin printer. Current build volume is 277mm x 156mm x 300mm. However Elegoo will be making a optional z height module next year to let the printer print up to 500mm high. I bought this to print hull sections. The picture below show you how big the dam thing is.
