As someone who’s been dabbling in DIY electronics, model-making, and even small-scale product design for years, I’ve seen a lot of tech come and go. But nothing has sparked my creativity quite like the emergence of 3D printing—especially resin-based printing. Whether you’re a hobbyist looking to create miniatures with microscopic detail or a small business owner prototyping your next product, the 3D resin printer might just be the tool you never knew you needed.
In this post, I’ll break down why resin 3D printing stands out from traditional filament printing, explore some use cases, and share a few things I wish I’d known before jumping in.
