Resin 3D printing. Can we even do it? (self.Blind)
submitted by Laser_Lens_4
The title says it all. My friend and I are interested in resin printing with the Anycubic Photon printer. I used to 3D print before I lost my sight, but that was entirely using FDM printers. I'm aware that uncured resin is toxic, so I'm wondering if any blind people use this process, and how they keep themselves safe. Is this a thing we can even do without sight? Thanks.

It would need a lot of caution. You might get resin on other surfaces,

What's wrong with FDM? If you have a good printer and dial in the settings you can get detailed prints in smaller sizes. Although it won't be at the level of SLA, FDM can be comparable

We want to do miniatures for D&D. Good as FDM printers are, they simply don’t have the necessary Z axis resolution.

Sounds interesting. Hopefully you guys have figured this out.

Following :) I don’t know much about 3D printing but it seems interesting
