OK, so I took the dive. I bought an Elegoo Mars 5 Ultra resin printer. I am loving it!!! This thing is awesome. And the ease of use is incredible. I was printing within an hour of setting it up. Would have been sooner but had issues getting the newest Chitubox version downloaded.

I joined a 3D page on FB and have rapidly realized I am NOT enthused about trying an FDM type printer. Dear Lord. Its like you have to do 48 calibrations and sacrifice 10 virgins to get a decent print out of those things. Every problem posted has 32 different answers and all of them COULD be the issue. Although I have been looking at Elegoos Neptune 4 Max. That one seems to be pretty good and does a lot of auto calibrating. So thats something Im pondering.

Here are some of the things Ive printed up already. Stacking up the future projects. As if I dont have enough model kits to keep me going until my last breath.

Donatello as the Last Ronin. In the comics its Michelangelo, but this model has it as Donnie, and I LIKE it! I still have o print the base, but his hands and the rest of the stuff are printed, just not pictured.

Dragon skull, then Tiamat then a cobalt dragon.
