Formlabs Form 2 Printer is on it's way!

The Form 2 SLA printer was approved and just ordered:

Barneclese Nerdgasm did a very good video about the usage of this printer. I think this video will answer a lot of your questions:

So the plan is that in order to use the printer, members would need to purchase their own tanks (the orange thing with the wiper) which will be around $60. For now we will use the clear resin, and charge a standard rate based off milliliter (mL) of resin used and you will be able to buy your own resin cartridge ($150-300/liter). I will be arranging a one-on-one video session with Formlabs for training with the volunteer trainers and we will get more specialized training for this machine than the PolyPrinters.

It’s very expensive but you will be able to get amazing details compared to FDM (the polyprinters). I also requested a sample of their castable resin ring.
