Resin Printer Area update

Hi All, just a quick update with a few new bits in the resin area.

There is a new high power UV torch in the area. Pease make sure wear UV filtering glasses when using this and do no shine it at anyone. Please at the end of your printing session if you are able to set the iso tank to a 2 minute wash cycle and use the torch to cure the resin with the tank lid off. This seems very effective at keeping the iso clean.

The resin printer is now sitting on a silicone mat, this has a lip all around to catch any spills, (which can be cured with the new torch.) Both the printer and the wash station now sit nicely directly below the extractor, please make sure they are kept here for the best extraction.

All of the consumables and tools for the resin printer have been moved to the shelves opposite. There are several large waste ISO bottles on the shelves. The stuff that looks quite clear is extra to go back in the wash tank. the sludgy stuff is all saturated and will need disposal. There is also a hand pump in the right hand box on the bottom shelf. This can be used to siphon off good iso from the tank before putting the sludge in the saturated iso tank.

We are looking into some other solutions for the areas shortly Any questions or if anyone want a refresher, give us a shout.
