Life Moments
Resin 3D Printing
I've wanted to make the dive into practical 3d printing for years. For my birthday this year, I made the plunge and picked up an Elegoo Saturn 3d Printer. Join many social networks and learn everything from the right temperature to print to best practices for curing. I haven't seen much interest in our current community, but if you are interested, give me a holler. As you know, I'm very OCD about documenting and taking notes, currently using Notion as a wiki for all my notes.
