I’m quite new to resin printing and I was wondering if one was able to post-cure their prints with he printer’s built in “cleaning” function. I mean, it’s a pretty powerful UV light, right there. Does this damage the LCD more than usual? I was thinking of just “roasting” prints to cure them. If anyone tried it before, do share.
The easiest turn table is a microwave oven’s motor for a low speed, mains powered device. You can likely find one on the curb for free depending on where you live.
I haven’t tried with resin, but when I’m using photoresist to etch my own circuit boards, I use the sun because It is effortlessly fast. However I also have a fingernail polish curing stand. These are a cheap option for a decent UV curing lamp. If you use the Sun be sure it is a completely clear day at around solar noon if consistency matters. Even light clouds can cause weird refractive inconsistencies in my experience.
The screens generally have a short life in resin printers. I wouldn’t use it for this.
Just feel like this needs to be said, if you have any intention of opening up a microwave oven, know that just touching certain parts can kill you even if it’s been off for a while
