By the way, it is possible to use the ethernet port: https://www.elegoomars.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=15

2019-08-14 20:50:52 +0000 UTCThe pixels seem to be 47µm x 47µm which is a lot better than what you'd need for PCBs! Personally I have completely stopped etching my own PCBs tho, because of the unbeatable Chinese prices, even for prototypes ... but now that you mention it, that would be a very cool thing to try on that printer!

2019-07-17 18:06:57 +0000 UTCIs it at all worth to expose pcb:s with this setup or would the resolution of the LCD be to limiting?

If you get too often or too much resin on your fingers, especially when dissolved in IPA you can get serious health issues. Support is sometimes hard to get right and if it fails you can end up with a lot of fine debris in your resin - which sometimes is so bad that it justifies dumping the entire vat. Even successful supports will leave tiny spots on the print after breaking off. But as I said in the video, if you need to print these small and precise parts, there has never been a better way to start. And when you get it all right, it's very fulfilling.

But seriously now, how much of a headache is it with these printers? I mean in terms of getting the resin then cleaning up after a print ?

2019-07-16 22:21:58 +0000 UTCWe have a formlabs machine at work that will do very fine threads and tiny medical stuff just fine actually, the biggest inaccuracies using the machine come from improper washing of parts. They're great machines, and I actually prefer it to our Stratasys SLS machine

2019-07-16 21:29:06 +0000 UTCwell, the smell is not quite as bad as some people say, but the combination of noise and IPA cleaning really makes a separate room desirable ... I for one have sacrificed my kitchen :) If you ever need anything printed, send an stl file. All machines are standing still at the moment
