As 3D printing enthusiasts continue to explore the boundaries of resin printing, adapting to environmental conditions becomes crucial for achieving optimal results. In this article, we will delve into the specifics of resin printing using a unique mixture: a 60/40 blend of Phrozen's  Aqua 8K Gray and Onyx Impact Plus. Our focus will be on adjusting the printing settings for optimal performance in rooms with temperatures below 10 degrees Celsius. ▲ Luther's Print Using the "Cold Setting". / Luther Caudle Understanding the Resin Mixture:      The combination of Phrozen's Aqua 8K Gray and Onyx Impact Plus creates a resin blend that offers a balance of properties, including excellent detail resolution and enhanced impact resistance. However, like any resin, its behaviour can be influenced by environmental factors, particularly temperature. Challenges in Colder Temperatures:      Lower room temperatures...

In the world of resin 3D printing, there is an ongoing debate about whether it is better to print directly on the build plate or use supports. This topic recently sparked a lively discussion in our Facebook group and subreddit, with members sharing their experiences, preferences, and concerns. In this article, we will delve into the different perspectives presented in the conversation and explore the pros and cons of printing directly on the build plate.  ▲ Sometimes people need to print stuff directly on the build plate for various reason. Credit. The Importance of Model Orientation:      One key point is that, the ideal orientation for printing a model is not always the one allowed by printing flat on the bed. Depending on the complexity and geometry of the model, it may be more efficient to use supports to achieve the desired outcome. This is particularly true when dealing with intricate designs or models with overhangs. ▲ Proper orientation and good supports can ...

Last time, we've introduced a stray dog named Peachy, which had her fortune to have one of the volunteer Wong, from the local stray rescue and adoption group in Hualian, Taiwan, to made a 3D printed prosthetic for her congenital amputation, who is also a member of Phrozen's Taiwanese group on Facebook.     After 3 months, Peachy has become 6 months old and has already adopt to the prosthetic Wong has made for her. And she has also become heavier, more stronger then before, which means Wong have to adjust the design of the tailored prosthetic to better fit her current state.      Wong has also tried out some new material making the prosthetic. Despite other kinds of resin has stronger, more durable result compared to the Phrozen Rock-Black Stiff he's originally used, Rock-Black for its easy to print, high dimensional accuracy, is still the choice for him to do the fast proto...

Sui-Wah Wong, a member of Phrozen's community on a Taiwanese Facebook group, recently showcased his creation of a prosthetic for a dog with disabilities. ▲ The short video Wong has been shared on Facebook.      Wong is a devoted animal lover, a owner of a vintage film-camera repair workshop. He's also an active volunteer with a local stray rescue and adoption group called " 我們的動物緣 ", meaning "our serendipity with animals", situated in Ji'an, Hualian, Taiwan. Given his background in CAD and 3D printing from his camera repair business—where he crafts rare parts for classic film cameras—he found himself motivated to start exploring designing and 3D printing prosthetics for animals with disabilities. ▲ Wong's design of prosthetic for a dog with disabilities.      Despite his familiarity with CAD and 3D printing, the realm of designing assi...
