  1. Today's project, something I've been trying to get to for months.

    Step 1: Go way-too-deep on historical fire hydrant design research.
    Step 2: Put way too much detail into a 3d model. Then think, why not make two different variants? Wind up with a two-nozzle 90º hydrant, and a second version with a third larger pumper nozzle too. (Because now I know the difference between hose nozzles and pump truck nozzles.)
    Step 3: Make smol on the resin printer.

  2. Thanks for all the answers so far! There's a diversity of recommendation so I wonder if people have a favourite slicing program, in my case it's for #ResinPrinting (I don't know if it makes a difference), usually for very small items, with a Phrozen Mini 8K.

    (Edit: sorry, I had to edit the poll after 12 votes because I realised OrcaSlicer did not work for resin printing so I removed it.. please vote again if you were in those 12!)

  3. I have a couple of hundred ml of resin left I'd really like to use up. Anyone got some suggestions for fun or interesting things to print on a resin printer ?

  4. I wish 3d printer resin came in 500ml bottles. I don't print enough to use a whole kg before it goes off...

  5. Love how this 1:24 scale grizzly with salmon came out. Printed for a customer.

  6. À gauche, Melinoë de Hades 2. Modèle 3d de Bulkamancer.

    À droite... Aussi. Modèle 3d de h3LL Creator.

    Deux commandes différentes pour deux modèles différents à quelques jours d'écart.

  7. My resin printer is alive again! :blobfoxthinkanime:
    I even found half a bottle of resin from long ago and put it to use on a test print. Let's see what happens when you take a Photon Mono 2 out of hibernation

  8. My first successful print with the resin printer! A HeroForge mini that my wife made for our DnD campaign. I think it came out really nicely!

  9. MyMiniFactory is raising funds for a new open-source, AI-free resin slicer. There's a ton of options for FDM printers, but the landscape of resin slicers is still pretty thin, and with Lychee getting more bloated and a $100/year subscription, a new community built option would be a huge benefit.

    Take a look at the campaign if you can throw in a few bucks:

  10. I used to price resin miniatures by hand: open slicer, load STL, slice, read resin usage, copy into a spreadsheet.

    While learning Python, I wondered if a tiny dense neural network could become my 3D printing cost calculator instead. So I scripted PrusaSlicer and UVtools, built a dataset from thousands of slices, and trained artist-specific models.

    Now a quiet bit of business automation with AI predicts how much resin to use for each model in seconds—and I get my evenings back.
