So  I was trolling around on facebook marketplace, as you do, and I noticed that Davinci brand printers are available, some of them brand new in box in the $100 range...  I've spent way more on much dumber stuff, any reason not to get them?


There's also some Elgoo brand resin printers for the same price.   I know the difference a bit between FLA and Resin, although I want to play with both some day... 


Either way, are Davinci or Elgoo brand printers anything to be scared of, and can I lose for a c-note?

Go for it with the elgoo. I've been following their resin printers for a while. They got a big one, the Saturn, running around $350 now since the new version came out.

From what I've seen they're fairly reliable rigs that punch above their price point. 

They also have very cheap cleaning/curing rigs for the resin printers.

Do the resin containers look like this?

Yeah!  It seemed cheaper than other resin for some reason.....

This is an example of what's in the area:

Apparently egloo sells used printers really cheap, too:

For under 3 bills, I could have a resin printer, cleaning/curing station and sla printer?  Seems like a trap..

Good to hear..  I didn't realize they were so cheap.  That's dangerous!
