- Over 5 hours to print... - Layer thickness 0.1 mm - Curing time 8s - around 650 layers - Result is very hard plastic - Object is halo, wall thickness 2mm - I will start using white dyes... easy to paint later...
Hi, could you post a list of printer components and where to buy them? And especially what is the resin and where to buy it. I've been following the discussion on yahoo group but it would be great if you could make create and overview. I hope is not too much to ask. best regards, dacian
Well done. I am tinkering on something similar. I am trying to use a LED based DLP. So I will have a much smaller area due to the resolution and the little energy that thing pumps out. If you have problems with the PTFE coating you can try a trick that I am telling my students. You can spin coat PTFE in its aqueous form on glass using a big PC fan. And In this PDF you can find the parameters ( http://light.eecs.berkeley.edu:8080/SHARP07/SHARP07-Elizabeth%20Purdy.pdf ) But again I am impressed. Would it be possible that you elaborate also on the dry you used that will help me a lot. Regards Jens
I have been dreaming about having a 3D Printer at home for many years, but the ones with good quality are not affordable and the low costs just deliver poor quality. Sounds crazy but I decided to build a high resolution 3D Printer by myself at home (people actually said that I was crazy and this was impossible). The funny thing I never saw this type of machines in real life, and still haven’t seen one besides the one I built.
Now that I succeed building the first prototype, the target is to bring this low cost 3D Printer to every home, so we are developing the first affordable one with high resolution.
I hope you enjoy our blog, follow us and you can have this printer in your home soon.

Hi Dacian,
ReplyDeleteYes, I am planning to do that... I will show all steps to build...
The resin is from Dymax, you can find the link in previous post. I will post it again soon.
Cheers,
