A community dedicated to the universe of Warhammer 40k, a tabletop setting in the far, distant future.

This is a general community for 40k miniatures, art, lore discussion, and gameplay discussion.

Rules

  1. Keep it civil.
  2. No memeposts/shitposts. Memes are great but direct them to grimdank.
  3. Please mark any posts containing realistic nudity or realistic excessive gore/violence as NSFW; this rule mainly applies to cosplay and realistic drawings rather than miniatures. Being that 40k is inherently violent, this is a judgement call, and mods may occasionally request posters add tags.
  4. No political or social cause agenda pushing.

That's really good, I don't see many supports residuals at all!

Thanks! I have been practicing supporting for a bit now and like to think I have gotten half decent.

Man i'd kill for a reliable/affordable resine printer !

Anycubic mono 4k is a fantastic deal, $169.00 right now, it's basically the cost of a combat patrol.

And the anycubic ultra DLP is great as well at sub $300.

I have had great success with both the mono 4k and the D2 (updated ultra). My D2 has been running non-stop for about 3 months now with only a few misprints, all user error.

If you have any questions about either I would be more than happy to answer them to the best of my ability.

I mean I spent about 500$ CAD for the washer/curing station and the printer. I feel like it was a steal considering how much I have saved on model costs.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well i never bought a single model because it's too costy to begin with 🙃 500Cad is indeed a good deal ! But i've heard that calibrating process and troubleshooting are much more tedious than on a fdm and quite costly and the resin itself is a bit pricy too :/

Resin printing is basically plug and play at this point.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Glad to hear that ! Sorry to bother with question, but is it noisy ? My fdm is so fucking loud, is it the same for resin ? Thank you for your intel !

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Can't comment on the noise, but with resin printers I know the biggest problem is the gasses they emit. You need to print in like a garage with the fan on, its not recommended to print inside a small area with low air circulation.

Didn't know about that good to know !

No my resin printer is a lot quieter than my FDM one.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Great ! Thanks !
