Reddit mentions of ELEGOO Mars UV Photocuring LCD 3D Printer with 3.5'' Smart Touch Color Screen Off-line Print 4.53in(L) x 2.56in(W) x 5.9in(H) Printing Size Black Version

You can buy the Elgoo Mars DLP printer on Amazon for $280. It’s build size is a little small but it’s an amazing printer. I’d say that it would be amazing for key caps.

On a budget, there are three great choices for Mini Printing:

Anycubic Photon (not Photon S)

Elegoo Mars

Epax X1

Angus did say in his video on the Elegoo Mars that they are going to release a new version in the next few weeks. So, the current one may go even lower in price.

Check the forms here for info on each printer.

ETA: These are all DLP printers and the screens will need to be replaced every so often. Also, if you want the best quality minis, you would have to go to a true SLA. But there are no budget true SLA printers. They start with the Peopoly Moai at about $1,300.

DLP vs SLA

There was a resin printer reviewed on YouTube that’s like 250 it got good remarks from them and others online strongly debating my self. The resin is like 40 a bottle.

Here you go! ELEGOO Mars UV Photocuring LCD 3D... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07K2ZHMRF?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Yeah. If you look at the comment review by Scott Presbrey here https://www.amazon.com/ELEGOO-Photocuring-Printer-Off-line-Printing/dp/B07K2ZHMRF/ref=sr_1_3?keywords=resin+printer&qid=1564672532&s=gateway&sr=8-3#customerReviews

he says:

" I had to return first 2 units. First one had an issue where the rising and lowering metal plate would not detach from FEP during first several layers. SOLUTION: add a piece of painters tape to corner of LCD screen, under FEP film, but do not cover active pixel area! (Issue is a vacuum is created that cannot detach)...."

Amazon. Some have gotten one for $250. I just bought one the other day for $260. They are selling out every time they restock within minutes. But as of this exact moment, they are in stock. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/ol/B07K2ZHMRF/P_dp_buy_opt?

If you're going to use it for minis and terrain, things that are small but highly detailed, you should look at resin printers. They used to be very expensive, but the cost has dropped dramatically recently.

One of my players recently bought this one just for printing stuff for our game. Price isn't bad ($260) and the quality of the prints is fantastic.

I'm looking for a decent starter printer and found what looks like a good resin one and was wanting to get the communities input.

Hi all,

In the UK and wanted to get a resin printer, budget under £500.

​

I see in the USA some people are going crazy over this:ELEGOO Mars UV Photocuring LCD 3D Printer

Uncle Jesse on youtube seems to love it!

​

This deal has now ended and the printer is sold out on Amazon.com

​

So the main website is selling it, but obviously, that would be from the USA and I would need to pay tax and shipping to the UK.

​

So, seeing as I am in the UK I was looking for something over here I could purchase.

I was looking at the ANYCUBIC Photon S 3D Printer

​

Does anyone here know:

1. if this is a good alternative to the ELEGOO?
   
2. if not is there a good alternative?
   
   ​
   
   Thank you so much for your time
