@@ligametis You want to have it in a dedicated workstation and Keep it away from “living” spaces… Make sure you have adequate airflow and clean air ventilating through the space. You could do this with an open garage recycling the air with fans or with a dedicated ventilation system that removes the air from the workspace. DO NOT try and print in your room, the smell alone from the resin and isopropyl gases will overwhelm the space. There are a lot of useful videos on YT that cover airflow safety for printing setups… Grow tents with ventilation are great if you are limited on space. Some machines also have a hole in the back of the cover to run a ventilation hose straight outdoors. Do your own research though and decide what is best for you… A big thing I have learned with resin printing is that it helps to plan 5 steps ahead to keep yourself safe and organized and to lessen the chance of mistakes. Hope this helps, Thanks for the comment!

For general safety this is a fantastic video and I will be sharing this with people that I get into 3d printing. But I do want to add the need for a dedicated space and ventilation (dont print in your bed room please people). But you can actually also go further and reduce the fumes/toxins you release by a significant amount if you use a grow tent and in line fan set up. A grow tent can be bought for cheaper than a dedicated resin printer enclosure and you can get really big ones. Mine is about 4 ft wide 5ft tall and 2 ft wide. I have found a table that fits inside of it to give me more usable room. So I have 3 printers on the floor and another printer on the table where I also keep my cleaning and curing station (with enough left over room to comfortably remove supports/anything else I might need to do). This makes it so that the contaminated area is just within that grow tent and nothing nasty ever leaves it. I have 2 in line fans. One that runs 24/7 that's used to create negative pressure and a second one I activate when I have the door open that's situated over the wash station to catch any IPA fumes. I have run tests with several air quality meters and have found this set up stops >99% of VoCs from spreading beyond the grow tent. Note: If you dont use the printer for a while (like a month) I'd just spend 20mins to an hour with the fan running just to clear out any out gassing.

@@wakkru Strongly consider getting a $40 grow tent to house the printer and a $30 fan with some tubing to properly ventilate. Bedroom and kitchen printing is yikes! But seriously for the cost of 2-3 bottles of resin you can increase your safety by orders of magnitude.

hi, really good video! since this is the internet i'd obviously like to add my own knowledge/opinion! - you need to add particle filters to you respirator (a little FFP2 cloth that goes on top), otherwise you shouldnt use it for sanding - "wash your hands" with the thicker gloves on using IPA, (thin gloves only last ~10minuites with IPA contact, check permeation data if available) - toilet paper is already in small pieces and available in extra soft

@TheZahnputz
@TheZahnputz 11 днів тому
​@@ResinForge i use thicker nitril gloves because the thin ones allow the IPA solvent to permeate relatively quickly. To prevent Resin curing on them over time, i give them a quick wash with IPA after using them and wipe them dry with a old rag (Like washing your hands, Just with the gloves still on your hands)
@ResinForge
@ResinForge 11 днів тому
@@TheZahnputz Oohh got it… I tried a thicker glove for “re-use” and wasn’t a fan. Now I just use the nitrile gloves and throw them away after. I usually never have them on for more than a few minutes depending on what I am doing. Thanks for the tip!

get a flexible build plate, then your prints just pop off with a snap. Also a wash&care machine is a game changer, completely change the workflow in an amazing way.

I am tempted to try one but I usually print very large/heavy prints (usually maxing out the y-axis) and have read of some failure points on prints at higher weights using flex plates. Completely agree with you on the wash and cure station! It makes the process much more streamlined. Thank you for the comment, I really appreciate it!

90% or higher IPA becomes something like 70% pretty rapidly unless you store it in a very airtight container, it absorbs water from the air very readily. Dont' waste money on it if you aren't going to store it in a way that keeps it high concentration.

I purchased a wham bam flex plate and love it.just peel off and bend.prints pop off.i only print with water washables.the wify keeps an eye on my hobby spending and water is cheaper than ipa so i went with that option.i also print large items.not into minis.

It works amazing! Another tip with the gel is to buy it in the plastic clear bottle form… I have used the super glue gel in the little tubes and they weirdly always try and push glue out whenever the cap is off, even when you set it down the glue will still drip out. (Hope that makes sense) I have heard nothing but good things about flex plates but have never purchased one… Maybe when I get a new machine I will get one and try it out 😁 Gotta keep the cost down where we can!

to add onto your spatula section, it may seem super simple and obvious but we you try and use your tool to pull up the purge sheet from the vat go for the bottom right corner do not try and pick at long edges your spatula will slip and you sling resin all over you machine. hold your spatula upright and feel along the edge til you find the corner.

Get cellulose lint free wipes. A single pack of 300 is about $18 and I've used less than half of them after 2 years. They are perfect for cleaning a screen or a FEP because they dont leave behind fibers and they are soft enough to not scratch up the FEP/screen. Dont use them for general cleaning though. Also to keep your self safe during sanding you need to put in those n95 covers over the 3m mask's filters. The charcoal of the filter isn't rated for dust particles. Also for accelerant for super glue - use baking soda. It strengthens the glue and gives it some volume. Just dont mix them before you apply the glue since the soda will cause the glue to set instantly. Its a great alternative to super glue gel.
@ResinForge
@ResinForge 26 днів тому
Great tips! Everyone always says to use micro fibers when cleaning your FEP but I had that EXACT issue with it leaving fibers behind so I switched to using an old T-shirt that I cut up into squares… The cellulose wipes are probably a better option 😆 Thanks for such an informative comment, I really appreciate it!

can u pls make a video about curing? How long does the statue needs to be cured under UV light. Coz I have seen in some videos where they say, Too much curing can lead to resin being brittle.
@ResinForge
@ResinForge Місяць тому
Yes I should have one out in the next few weeks! Too much UV exposure can make your prints overly hard and brittle. Curing all depends on size and resin color and how strong your UV light source is. Are you using a curing station or a homemade setup? These are the average curing times I usually use with a curing station: 3-5 minutes on very small prints 6-8 minutes on small-medium size prints 10+ minutes on very large pieces Lighter and clear resins will cure faster than darker resin Hope this helped a bit for now!

@ResinForge
@ResinForge 5 днів тому
It can be kind of tricky… I leave the release film on that comes with the screen protector and just pull back a tiny bit from underneath on one side. Press the side where the release film is peeled back and then smooth it out in sections with a credit card, if there is bubbles you can lift it back a bit and smooth it out again. Work in small sections slowly peeling back the release film from underneath as you smooth it out with the card. It’s kind of hard to explain in a message haha but this is what has worked best for me, once I receive a new machine or need to replace mine again I will make a video on it!

I want to use other slicers but i was having the usb problems. And since I’ve been at least learning how my printer works I didn’t care until I heard from anyone about this.

@@Lungshot420 I was not the biggest fan of Photon Workshop and I don't have any experience with the remote print features... When you use Chitubox are you using a default profile for the M5s Pro? When you slice in Chitubox for the m5s the file needs to convert format from a STL or 3d Object File to a (.pm5s) Program PhotonWorkShop file for the printer to recognize it. It takes a while but I would rather wait than use Photon Workshop. The first time I sliced a file for the m5s in Chitubox I thought my computer froze cause the file conversion takes so long but you just have to wait it out.. Hope this helps a bit for now! I will keep poking around today to see if I can give you some more info
