Er, yes I do mind... but a generic likeness would be fine.Would you mind if I used your face? love the beard!
Ventilation installed. Have to put glass into the cabinet doors...run LED lights. Fingers crossed, run first test print this weekend.....
A bit more set up tomorrow morning and will try printing in the afternoon. Here is my set up.
Bought a cabinet last year on Facebook Marketplace for $10. Had a use for it and then went in another direction. When I started thinking about the 3D printer I decided I could use it for that with ventilation on top going out a window.
Station 1 - Elegoo Mars 4 resin printer
Station 2 - Elegoo Mercury XS cure and first wash station
Station 3 - Elegoo Mercury 2 final wash station
Overall cabinet with extraction/duct work located on top with exhaust out the window. System uses a 6” diameter Infinity exhaust fan with Infinity controller (can control up to 4 fans - plans to set up small acrylic paint booth adjacent to 3D printing station with another Infinity fan tied to integrated controls). Infinity controller has thermometer input that is set up in the printing station

Oh ..c'mon Pug ,,,you have a great face..who else can hide a fully rigged sloop in their beard? Get a few royalties off your mug!Er, yes I do mind... but a generic likeness would be fine.
I'm in for 1/64 and 1/48..I'm with Pug ..grizzle up those Hollywood faces!
First test print in the printer. Making a “rook”, standard test print for Elegoo. There is nothing fast about this process. I see why people might have multiple printers, this rook which is only 1.5” tall is taking the better part of 4 hours!
much better!!
Please let us know when you are offering figures.
So far I have printed the rook and then had some operator issues and finally got a 1/72 grizzled old salt of a cook printed. Right now it’s printing a 1/12 scale 12 yo boy sitting with a tiller in his hand…will post later. What are you after?
generally 1/64 and 1/48 figures for Confederacy, Victory and Winchelsea. Also, 1/30 scale for the Royal Caroline
Is the Royal Caroline by ZHL?
