👀 WHO AM I ?!
After graduating from Engineering school I pursued a quick professional football career in the Canadian Football League. I retied from the CFL after just two years to focus on business development and investing. I currently own and operate an engineering design and 3D printing company and a few other businesses that are discussed on this channel !

OK video, but your free model site just takes a person email and doesn't send the link for the download. So that's pretty sketchy feeling.

This is super inspiring, cool that the printer is so cheap. Hard to believe it prints via screen exposure. Almost an extension to photography.

Awesome video! Was looking for something short and concise that included the major steps for beginners and this was perfect! Thanks for sharing your expertise with us.

I am so glad I'm watching this before purchasing one

Brand new to 3d printing and you simplified a lot for me!

Thank you, I was already familiar with FDM printing but I had only a vague clue how resin printers worked, this was a great introduction on the subject.

You should not put the printer next to a window if the temperature outside differs alot from indoor temperature. And usually most gases is produced while curing.

Great video. The link for free file no longer works... :(

Wow finally a super good video to give me some real and informed basics.
Thank you very much

I am very new at 3D printing and if you can, it would be very helpful if you could put out a video of how to support your design! 😊

when cleaning, do we use only isopropyl alcohol, or can we add something to the mix because i dont have much isopropyl alcohol and i dont want to waste the whole bottle on the first print

[jpempek]

Love the video and I basically got the exact setup based on your recommendations. Things are going really well, but I was curious which glue you use for resin. Often I have difficulty using my usual gorilla super glue.

[salemhunter]

What do you do with the dirty alcohol? Can you reuse it or do you have to dump it somewhere and buy more? If you have to dump it, how/where?

Hello! What tools would you use to do engravings in PLA after the print is done?

[johncook_modelwerks]

Question: I have a new Elegoo Saturn 12K printer and for small jobs, or jobs placed in the center of the plate, all is good. I've even run two exposure test prints that came out great. What I would like to do is place multiple parts on the plate at once, to save time on large multi-part projects. BUT, these seem to fail most of the time. Is it best practice to do one part at a time, in the center or is there a good way to do multiple parts at once? Thanks.

good video good & clear infokeep up the good work

[thomasvalerio]

What superglue and activator were used, I'm not seeing anything linked?

[xarly]

hello can you share your configuration of supports and lychee please, you can export, I have tried many times and they usually leave a lot of marks.

[chucklamb]

How do you get all those small parts to fit during assembly, with no gaps?

[fletch]

My resin parts just won't line up seamlessly always a big separation I've used the cones of calibration dialled in perfectly yet NONE of my pieces meet together 😢 yes I'm brand new to resin printers only owned fdms, where am i going wrong is they test prints somewhere that help line ups?
