Grab a ResinLapse for your resin 3D printer timelapses

I just got mine! This is such a great idea!

[andy_warb]

Using a photo resistor to trs cable and just jamming it near the uv source is genius!

[robinson-foundry]

Really great idea! I cant wait to use this for my videos. So excited!

[vaughn.reynolds]

The light-trigger is a genius solution! Bravo for ingenuity!

[electronicsandewastescrapp]

BAM. ordered. Thanks! I was literally just pondering ways to make this work having seen some of your time lapses before. Genius!

[LootStudios]

You just reveled the big secret haha. This is amazing! We just ordered one :D

[kerseyfabs]

This is a very elegant solution. Very nice work!

[hfranke]

Awesome who else could pull this of. Great job, Jessy.

[DPrintedTabletop]

I instant ordered this - not only cause it looks like an amazing product, but because I love both you and Andrew's work and contributions to our community. Kudos again! Can't wait to get mine and use it! :)

Cool man! This is freaking awesome. I was considering a way to do this with a sensor that detects when the plate is at it's highest. But your way is a lot simplier and it makes a lot more sense. I'll be grabbing this and using it for my channel.

Hell yeah, that's a great idea! you mentioned there would be guides, will this include DIY'ing one of these cables together? I'd love to buy one directly but the price + postage to Australia makes it a bit inaccessible.

EDIT: So this was actually really easy to figure out, and props to Jessy for such a simple and elegant solution to this problem. You just need a light dependent resistor (LDR), I used a GL5528, and a male 2.5mm aux jack headphone cable. The one I bought was a 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter cable, I just lopped off the the 3.5mm end. The 2.5mm jack is a Tip/Ring/Sleeve style conector or TRS for short, and what you need to do is wire the two leads from the LDR to the Tip and Sleeve of the 2.5mm jack. A multimeter although not necessary really helps a lot here to probe the wires and figure out which ones are for the Tip and Sleeve, and also to check that your LDR is working correctly (resistance should be high in low light, and drop way down when exposed to light).

I connected it to the 2.5mm input on my Canon DSLR and it worked straight away, snapping a shot every time it detected a change in brightness. I then pointed the LDR at my Photon S LCD and ran a number of detection tests and each time it took a photo straight away. Now I just need to find a place to mount it inside the printer.

What a great idea, keep it simple, looks like it would last forever

[marsgizmo]

well done, love the simple idea! 👏😎 (I was complicating mine way too much with accelerometers 😅)

[ffighters]

I love it! Glad you showed it off by using a Rebel level camera also, something most people can afford to get. I don't currently have a resin printer but may just pick one of these up anyways for when I do eventually buy one. Awesome looking time lapse by the way.

[hodgesmt]

Wow, such an amazing and "Why didn't I think of that!" Idea. Great Job. I don't currently resin print, but I will definitely get one when I start! And this makes me want to start.

[kylekimbro]

Just ordered one. Can’t wait to give it a shot thank you.

[DJapan]

My Resinlapse cable just arrived, can't wait to try it out!

[davidannett]

wow dude, wicked simple trigger! the results really are slick man damn

[KickassDPrints]

I think it's time I get my hands on a resin printer!
