Good day everyone. Been into the hobby since around 2014. I own 3 FDM printers currently.

Started on a Ecker Tech reprap kit.

Got a Wanhao D3, modified the hell outta it.

Latest as of a few years ago is a Ender 5Plus, have a CoreXY kit on there, swapped the board to a 32bit BTT, and added a microswiss extrusion assembly.

The FDMs have done me well over the years, and I’ve highly enjoyed tinkering around with them. But now I have the itch for something new and fresh. I’m thinking of dipping my toes into the resin printer market, and am looking for some reccomdations and experiences of fellow 3D printer enthusiasts.

I’d like to keep it around $2000 CAD (roughly 1500 USD, ouch CAD lol). I’m no stranger to tinkering and modifying. Have a shop with plenty of space, ventilation, and what not.

If you have any suggestions on a new FDM printer I’m all ears! (Maybe somthing multi-filament compatible?) So feel free to suggest some as well.

Thanks in advanced!

    Was it a closed hollow model without drainage holes? I think some cured resins will actualy weaken if they are in extended contact with their uncured counterpart.

      I thought it was a solid model and the inner sections didn’t fully cute. Can’t remember though. There were no drainage holes, I know that much.
