ANYCUBIC 3D Printer Resin, 405nm SLA UV-Curing Resin with High Precision and Quick Curing & Excellent Fluidity for LCD 3D Printing (Grey, 1kg)

Have printed 100s if not 1000s of models with the Basic Anycubic Grey, and will say this. It works really well with the Anycubic printers I own, I dont use other brands and honestly would stick with the printer brand-to-brand for resins etc. as I dont like mixing brands. Anycubic has a wide variety of colors, and types of resin including castable, water-washable, plant-based, DLP Craftsman, craftsman, basic and tough (like a rubber type of plastic). Each has its own unique abilities properties and SETTINGS. Please be sure and check the Anycubic site for details on each resin, and printer for the best settings.

I find this resin is excellent for miniature details. I also find it pretty durable and cleans nicely. I usually cut off the supports before curing since the contact points are still slightly rubbery and softer and it usually comes out with a cleaner surface. Using 8 second per layer and 60 seconds for the bottom layers seems to work perfectly on my Photon. I rarely have issues with failed prints and in all cases I messed up adding the supports where needed and once adjusted the pieces print great. Adhesion to build plate is no problem. I am also amazed at how small some of the details are that it can print provided it is supported. When cured it has a great surface for painting as well. The pictures above are of 1/72 scale Mandalorian , Razor Crest and Droideka printed on the Photon. You can see how fine the cables on the Droideka are.

Just got an SLA printer last week so I’m very new to this. I’ve been using an FDM printer for 2-3 years though so I’m no stranger to the general process. The other resin I have is the Anycubic grey standard resin. I mostly print minis for tabletop games. The grey resin CAN produce really impressive minis however it’s very brittle. I’m reading that there are multiple “flavors” of resin out there with different physical properties (as with the different types of FDM filaments). My first print with this translucent green resin was the dinosaur skull. Unfortunately, at some point the top half of the skull, the way cooler part, fell off the supports. I realize there are many possible contributing factors so I’m not really knocking the resin itself but that was disappointing. I’m also irritated when people talk about the “low odor” of these different resins. Both I’ve tried so far are extremely smelly. I leave a window open right next to my printer and it’s still pretty powerful. If you’re interested in SLA printing for minis you basically have to print a gelatinous cube with this stuff. Super excited for that. I’m also going to try the Anycubic plant based resin. I read that’s good for minis. Overall the green is good but admittedly I don’t have a huge pool of experience to compare to yet.

Projects come out well & detailed. I have only painted one of the projects so far & it seems to take the paint well (used miniature model paints).

I did not actually use this for 3D printing. Instead, I used this to make potion of poison for each person in my D&D group. As it was a full party of 7, I wanted something affordable, but also personal enough to be from both me and my character (obviously a rogue, yes, because what other class would think its totally acceptable to give poison as a Christmas present?). But these potions are $16 each of I buy them. Enter this amazing printer resin. I simply poured this into little pots (found here:Glass Favor Jars With Cork Lids https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073VHVMF2?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share), put in some pretty d6s (used these:Chessex Dice d6 Sets: Vortex Green with Gold - 12mm Six Sided Die (36) Block of Dice https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B0011WJB8S/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_i_vVJvEbX3KHCZP), and voila! Beautiful potions at almost half the cost. Things to note however: it does smell, use this outside, or somewhere with good ventilation. And too much direct sunlight will make large prominent bubbles, so if youd like to avoid that, then keep it in the shade, and cure it over a number of days. The color is absolutely gorgeous however, pours easily, and at the time of my purchase, was the cheapest option. Unfortunately I didnt take a picture of my finished products, but I am including a mid process picture just for an idea of how it looked.

this stuff is great if your looking to get started and want something inexpensive. The odor of this is low if you ask me personally but still take the precautions with mask and gloves needed when handling this. I have no issues with this and for as much as i print a bottle will last me for months. Note though that even this is resin. The cured material is brittle the thinner you try to print SO JUST KEEP THAT IN MIND!! But other then that i have no complaints with this

This product is extremely forgiving. Dialing in the settings is very easy. Be careful not to clean your prints too long in alcohol or brittleness will be an issue. Also, be careful not to over cure your print. Anything more than 4 mins will create a brittle print

The last resins that I bought were defective, the curing failed in more than 8 prints on 2 different printers and changing parameters, when trying other resins it prints well. I contacted the seller and he supported me at all times, finally changed the defective resins, it is important to clarify that only 2 of more than 15 resins that I have bought came out with this defect. recommended 100%

Dial the resin in and make sure its calibrated. Its honestly as good as any other resin in my opinion. it doesnt stand out and thats in my opinion a good thing. Anyways if you want to know if its good or not its I can say its good.
