Finally! Formlabs Resin for Hobbyist Printers – But Is It Any Good? | Formlabs Creator Series Review

Formlabs has released their Creator Series of resin. Formlabs is known for their high-end resin and powder printers. They are also well known for being walled-gardens. Their printers, their resin, their way. But now they've put their material scientists and engineers to the test to design the Creator Series of resins, resins for the rest of us. I put the Creator Tough and Creator Super Clear resins to the test, and see if they are worth giving it a try yourself. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 👀 See more information about the Formlabs Creator Series Resins (Affiliate Links): Creator Tough (grey): https://amzn.to/3QGTAFN Creator Super Clear: https://amzn.to/4kfAtjT --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Find print settings, safety data sheet, technical printing details, and more on Formlab's own pages: https://creator.formlabs.com/ Formlab's blog post about ACMO and safety concerns: https://creator.formlabs.com/blogs/home-page/safety-concerns-with-low-cost-3d-printing-resins-and-acmo --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Create a free profile at https://www.3dprintlog.com today, and start recording all your print settings and filament usage! --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 👀 See my recommended printers, filament, and accessories on my Amazon Idea Lists!
