For folks looking for a “cheap” but quality resin 3D printer you might want to consider the Proxima for $159 amzn.to/3wngwPz (affiliate link) I bought one to compare and will be doing a video soon.
I got a Longer Orange 30 new for $99 CAD (~$80 USD). Slightly smaller volume than my old Photon S but prints just as well, albeit a much more basic UI, a fiddlier levelling mechanism, and a cover you have to self assemble. Very strong recommendation for bargain basement 3D printing.
It can print a single 28-32mm mini at a time... These guys definitely know what people interested in budget SLA printers are intending to use them for. I hope this takes off and sees a lot of community support.
Yeah holy $&@? This is perfect timing for me. Was literally asking about two days ago on Reddit on getting into 3D printing do fo a lot of my Kickstarter stuff for dnd books comes with stls to backers. So was looking around for what’s a good printer that adorable and decent for new users.
The small size of this is so appealing to someone who doesn't have a garage or workshop. I could put a silicone mat in a tray and fully contain all the mess of printing, washing and curing.
@@peanutbutter3578 2 years late but THIS. Printing resin, or most resin in general, is not to be underestimated. People have used resin printers without air filtering and ventilation in their living quarters and have regret it quickly. Its very toxic, its an irritant and can even be corrosive in some cases. Also, and i found out the hard way, the headaches this stuff can cause are the worst i have ever experienced. Id say it can easily become 60-70% worse than a really bad migraine. Depends on how your body reacts to resin fumes tho. Even if you have a resin printer with an active charcoal air filter system, you may still show reactions and effects of resin fumes.
Friend of mine had the perfect analogy for this thing. It's like an electric egg cooker for a single egg. Perfectly functional if all you need is single eggs every time, but very limiting if you need to go beyond that.
I've actually been wanting something like this. For printing tiny detailed models occasionally without having to use up loads of space or deal with big containers of messy chemicals.
@@ravener96 True. This can be a novelty but Anycubic has sales ALL the time. We already own a Mono X and Mono X4k but they had a sale + coupon for the Mono SQ for $109. This little printer is cute and really can have SOME value to anyone who just wants to do minis here or there and not really care about a super quality machine to manage/upkeep but I feel like if I were to dive into 3D printing I wouldn't half ass it with something like this, honestly when for just a little more I can get a much nicer machine with manufacturer support.
The only issue that I see with this is any miniature that is a weird size. Like he shows a single mini there, but if you had a mini with a polearm, or that was really spread out or something, it would really be limiting. 4.5 x 3.5 cm is really tight.
Since this printer isnt always available you might want to choose the photon zero instead. It has the smallest resin tank of all regular printers. Hence me buying it used for 80€.

@@Steph.98114 True, but if a DMs budget is around 100$, they might be best served to pick up Reaper Bones miniatures for that money, they should get a decent number of those. As DM myself, I hardly ever print just 1 mini - usually it is an entire encounter or player party, for which I would recomment at least something the size of a Mars 2
This looks like a great stepping stone for open source; sort of like the E-Z-Bake oven of SLA printers. I hope that they continue to develop the concept into bigger and higher resolution options.
I can see this thing used for single miniatures without committing a large amount of resin in a large vat. For someone in a condo that has limited air venting, this tiny resin printer would be great. I would pick one up to print one off small model parts.
This seems pretty interesting for small casting projects. Small jewelry could easily be printed on this and then cast in metal. The low resolution doesn’t really matter, as there will be some sanding and polishing anyway
This would be perfect for someone looking to print a mini or 2 every couple days. Especially if the price comes down a bit. And honestly I am thinking about getting one to see if I like resin instead of getting a full elgoo or somthing like that
Yeah this was instantly the first/best use case that came to my mind. This thing is perfect for printing minis for D&D (like Starganderfish said). Only part that sort of was disappointing was the part about it being slow. It would be cool to get a new player to your game and in about 15 minutes have their new character's mini printed out but still it seems fast enough. Still, speed aside, having to use (and later clean up) so little resin is a huge bonus. Sometimes I hate having to handle a lot of resin on my Photon just to print out a tiny mini and it's not even a big printer.
@@Starganderfish This doesn't seem to have a mono screen, so even with the kind of horrible z-step by todays standards (min 0,05mm Z layers) it would take a whole lot of time to print off a single mini. Probably around 6-8 hours with a 0,05 mm layer height. With a mono screen it would be around 2-3 hours, but I still wouldn't call it fast. Also the thing with resin printers is that the only thing that adds time is the z axis. So you're basically sacrificing the only dimensions that don't add print time when opting for a smaller build plate. It's a fun "DIY" style demonstration kit for sure, but the price and execution makes it impractical for pretty much any real world use case.
It looks like all you need to do is make a PCB with a larger screen and the build volume can increase. It would be interesting to play around with this open source printer.
You'd probably need to modify the firmware to account for a higher screen resolution or you'd end up with blocky prints, but yes, that was my thinking as well.
@@StarkRG Shouldn't be a problem if the software is open. I haven't delved into the project, so I don't know if it is. Microcontroller coding is pretty straightforward.
In any event, a resin printer that is as compact as this one deserves a huge amount of credit. I never thought of combining a PCB with a display and that serve as the base. These types of printers, with the help of out of the box thinkers like ones from this development makes me very excited for things to come. Advances are happening so fast.
I think you've nailed the best use-case for this: demonstration and teaching. It's so low-stakes! That banding looks like there's no antialiasing, which is probably due to the weird format conversion. Also, I think there is a way you could get a flex plate on there without losing much if any build height... It would require a milling machine. Shave 0.4mm off the build plate, clear out some pockets for magnets. Pocket depth might be a problem.
This seems to be the equivalent of those toy EasyThreed FDM printers. A friend of mine bought one for about USD60. At least, it's an appropriate price, since it's about a third of what you'd pay for an Ender 3.
"What is this? A 3D Printer for ants? How can we expect to teach children how to 3D print, if they can't even fit their files inside the build volume?"
Kinda smart design, even uses the PCB board as a structural element. Love that tiny linear rail. I would have not though that 320x240 resolution is enough for resin printing.
To be honest, at the size of the prints being done on that printer, the pixels per inch is probably similar to that of a larger but higher resolution printer.
My boyfriend figured out his Christmas present i had been planning for months so i have been stressed about coming up with a new idea, you came out with this at a perfect time because this is perfect for him, he has next to no space for a 3D printer but would love one for making gas tanks and stuff for his models, just tiny bits that usually cost an arm and a leg to buy but make a world of different for models
It's neat but the price point is very off-putting considering you can pick up a brand new OG Photon for around $30 more. Even less if you go with a used one. It is neat tho, but the biggest value here seems to be the novelty of having a micro printer to show your friends.
what an effing time, man this is so cool. a little build project, customizable, and tiny desksized I can practice sculpting skulls for a tiny skull pile, and keep this on my desk ( and my earliest work will be buried under my best lol ) my entire workflow doesnt even have to leave the desk ffs and the most I could spill is what, a half cup of resin?
I wouldn't keep an SLA printer in a living space. The toxicity and allergenic potential of UV-curable resins are really understated in the 3D printing community.
This is one of those "but why" machines in my opinion. Like, a "standard" sized 6" display printer doesn't take up too much room and has a substantially larger build area. Considering you can find them for both much cheaper than this (I mean, the Voxelab Polaris was on sale.for $99 yesterday), I'm not really sure who I'd recommend this to
It's not always about money and size (said no girl ever) ;-) Jokes aside: I am fine with my FDM printer but sometimes I have small parts which are very hard to print. I never liked the idea of getting a second printer and so this one is the perfect alternative for me. It's open source and easy to repair, modify, extend, etc. I might even power it with a battery so I can put it anywhere without "blocking my workspace" due to the fumes.
@@falias4 I mean, I understand why you'd get a resin printer, as I have both resin and FDM, as the resin printers produce much finer details. I just feel like this is pushing the "it's so small it's unusable" limit. Like, I have a Voxelab Polaris (similar to the mars), and it's build area is significantly larger than this, yet, I still run into it not being big enought to print a lot of things that I'd like to print
It's really only a few $ in key parts. I might just build one, not buy their kit, just make just about every part myself. Like etch the PCB myself, cut my own bed, 3D print a bunch of bits, figure out the bits that are made in a certain way and make them differently, maybe even take it as an inspiration and design one myself.
This sounds perfect for someone doing resin minis. If i'm printing for personal use, i think i'd rather have 1 or 2 of these than a single larger resin printer that cost 5x as much. My reasoning is, while printing one D&D mini, i could start another on another printer. If i'm using a larger printer, i'd have to wait until that one is done, or get all of the mini models ready to print all at once. Now if i was printing multiples at once, i'd definitely want a larger printer. Then i could print 8 or 10 of the same mini at the same time. Or a bunch of different minis all at once. But for someone that just wants to print their own D&D mini, this sounds great.
It's astounding how much things can change in a short amount of time. Just 8 months after this video's release, Anycubic started selling off their remaining stock of Photon Mono Sqs for just $99 (with coupon code). In 8 months, we've gone from $99 getting you this dodgy little printer to a proper, 50 micron resolution mono-screen printer with a build volume larger than an Elegoo Mars. Absolutely wild.
I just ordered this little 3D printer. I'm going to use it next to my Peopoly Phenom L. I know you can get a better resin printer for around the same amount of money. I have the Voxelab Proxima and it's about as good as you're going to get for the price. That being said I feel $99 is a small price to pay to support open source development. Thank you for another outstanding video Uncle Jessy.
2 years later my 2k 160mm high Creality Halot One was $99 free shipping no tax on walmart ... and it wasnt even black friday. but it was mislabeled "cacagoo halot one" but was brand new, worked perfect and i got the uv station for $32 on dollar hog used :D worked perfect just had some clicking noise that i fixed with spare bearing that came with it, previous owner just lazy. with money i saved i got a 3 for 2 deal on anycubic HIGH CLEAR 3 kg for $80 :D i have so many clear x wings and TOY glocks on my table.
as many have pointed out, it would be perfect for miniatures for various games. Takes up no space at all basically (so limited cleanup and easy to store away when it's not in use), it's super affordable so even for someone looking to just print minis from time to time it makes sense and you usually don't need 20 minis of something very fast, you need like a few here and there (at least for d&d like I would use it for).
Well, you got conned into advertising for them. I figured I'd buy one just to try it out... except that in roughly one month's time, the price has been increased by 50%. It is now a $149 printer. So.... I went with the black friday deals on a Photon S for $40 more. Then there's the issue of $18 shipping vs. free shipping as well, so the Photon was actually only $22 more. EDIT: My mistake. The Photon S is actually only FOUR DOLLARS more. The Lite3DP currently doesn't include a power supply, which they sell separately for another $18. This tiny thing costs $189 all in. Definitely not worth it when many larger resin printers, with UV protective enclosures, cost roughly the same.
As someone who has lived in a house their entire lives with at least 2 or 3 PCs in it, it's mind-blowing to think that there are still people without 1
Sadly, this printer seems to be no longer available, at least at the link provided. It looks like they only manufactured about 500 and they're gone. Beyond that though, I think you keep forgetting that not everyone has an interest in printing busts or cosplay helmets. This would be a perfectly serviceable machine for 99% of the scale model building world. Engine components, ejection seats, munitions, wheels, cockpit details, etc... This seems tailor made for diorama components such as boxes, crates, barrels, or jerrycans in 1:35 scale. N or HO scale model trains have so many scenery parts that this could create. Honestly, I can think of so many things that would print perfectly well on a little machine like this, and none of them involve Joker busts. I think there's an amazingly large market for a small printer like this, so it's a shame that it appears to be sold out.
"This box is bigger than the smaller boxes within it." Yes. That's how containers work. Nevertheless I gotta get me one of these when I move into my studio.
This thing must come from the "it HAS to be Arduino" school of design. Featuring the worst available SPI interface for both SD card and display controller and an expensive single source 8-bit MCU (that doesn't have the memory to do decompression) to run all the logic... the firmware doesn't even bother with loading the next frame while running the Z axis motors ("printname" is the image loading function, of course). And the schematic is flashy but nigh illegible (uses net names all over, but not consistent names for the same net). Much could be improved.
Yup, I agree. I hope this is just a first barely-put-together version and they will release an upgraded version in the future. If they changed to literally any 32 bit MCU (heck, if they wanted to keep the thing easy to hack, a Raspberry Pi Pico would work) and a better LCD this might actually become half-decent.
@Enrico Conca The RP2040 would be pretty good, though e.g. ESP32 may be an even better fit, with native SD, Wi-fi and display output (it's a mode of their I²S block). For their current thing, parallel motor control and RLE bitmaps would help.
This would be amazing at a slightly lower price point, I don't know if that's possible. I would love to pick this up but hard to justify spending $100 on something so impractical. Would definitely be a neat desk prop type of thing, print a mini every now and then for giggles.
But the resin remains equally toxic, so printing a mini every now and then on a desk prop doesn't sound that smart ... I agree with the other comments: with first gen non-mono SLA printers being available for the same (or lower) price and having actual replacement parts and include a spatula and come assembled, why bother with this?
I collect 1/12 scale action figures and Transformers, which seems to be different than intended kind of customer for this, but that joker bust looks pretty good and seems to be around 1/10 scale. I'd like to be able to make my own specific custom parts without having to commission someone for each one, and this looks like a good size for my limited living space.
I was just thinking about a use case for this regarding Transformers. I don’t know if you know about Hightail Creations, but he does 3D printed figures using a full size resin printer to avoid print lines. The downside being that resin prints aren’t strong enough for any of the joints you’d usually find on a figure, leading him to have to do more pinned joints. I could see a use case where you use a PLA printer for joints and basically the structure of a figure and then a little Resin printer for outer armor pieces. Might need something a little bigger if you wanna do anything bigger than a Deluxe though.
@@JacobHillSBD yeah, I don't see this printer making anything big enough to scale with sizes larger than a deluxe class (except for tiny accessories and decorative parts)
Where is everyone getting these resin printers for the prices they are quoting? The Lite3DP is not $99, it's $125 USD. Then I keep reading comments like, "this thing is too expensive, I got my much bigger Hoobaloo 6.3 or whatever for $99 on Amazon," but when I look at the prices, they are $189 and up.
THANK YOU 👌 For your question for who is this good for, let me explain why it fits my needs absolutely perfectly : Im in automotive and specialized in electronics repairs.. Almost every time i have a bigger job to do, there a at least 2 connectors to replace.. So because i can't get them "new" from the manufacturer i spend 2-3 days checking out the junkyards to find what i need.. So maybe 2-3 years ago i started fdm 3d printing and could get managed to print some bigger connectors with an 0.1 nozzle.. An "normal" sized resin printer is just a "a waste of space" because i really only need it to print connectors. So to 3d model one takes me around 20min and then i could print them and get the job way much quicker done, thats why this awesome tiny guy is perfect for me 👌😁
Went to look into buying one to play with, but they seem to be off sale. I really love the size of this machine. Perfect for board game parts, tabletop minis, diecast or model railroad mods. I am really hurting for space. This is a printer I can definitely find a space to operate! Plus it’s just neat!
Im debating this as my first resin printer. Im going to be iterating small parts and is so convenient to deal with small a vat. now that I'm looking at the design I'm wondering if they would eventually make replacement screens?
I'm surprised at how well it printed! How loud is it? With it being so small, I wonder if it it's also fairly quiet. This would be a fun printer, that you can take to a friends house, or to conventions. Have you ever tried printing dice? Like D6's, D12's, and D20's? I wonder how well 3D printers would print them, especially something this small. Would be kinda cool to take this somewhere, and make a D5 or D7 die, as those seem to be the least popular, thus you never have enough of them.
@@mudawott i was just watching a few of his dice making videos like 30 minutes ago! Just found his channel, so I haven't seen that video yet. But I'll look for it!
You know, for someone that just wants to print miniatures this is probably an ok buy to test out resin printer. If it is for them then they buy a bigger printer. If this is made well it would be a good introductory. Small FDM printers are kinda useless but a resin printer is for small high detail parts.
So I want to be able to print more detailed minis for DnD and I know resin printing can do that better. However, I live in an apartment so I don't really have proper ventilation. Would something like this be a good resin printer to have or is there other resin printers that are slightly bigger that don't need a ton of ventilation? I would only really be using it for standard sized minis.
As tiny as it is you could probably build an air evacuation system with the shipping box, some duct tape, a small amount of flex duct and a small fan to manage fumes
There are MANY times we end up having to print out a single ring/pendant to jewelers prior to final printing out a set for investment and casting. It is very suitable in wasting a minimal amount of resin; capable of making a much lesser mess... obligate much less usage of alcohol... Thus: have me a lot less annoyed at the client when they say "I have to see with it in my hands.. I do not understand it when on the screen" (though in their defense: they do pay the difference) I am surely having one to order. Thank you so much for the review2ish share of your fiddling with it. I would have never gone for it due to my expectations for the price alone! Note: I double that it is basically a GREAT thing to carry around with you to conventions and so forth... .Even the bare-bones format it comes in allows you ability to build a case around it custom to you and/or your company/stand/team/booth.
I'd kind of like to play around with one, but the slicing is and issue as well as the re-levelling each time. You do wonder whether it would be better run from USB-C or something, I'd have thought that should be possible.
Looks awesome and perfect for all I would want it for...printing miniatures. Sadly, they don't have that anymore and are pushing a $299 second generation one.
I just checked…it’s 125 now, plus 15 for the power supply, and 8 bucks shipping. I really wanted this because of its small size and simplicity, but at that price it makes more sense to buy the proxima
looks like more of a novelty item then a useful printer when you can get a voxelab proxima for like 30-40 dollars more with a significantly larger build plate and it prints amazing.
army men (yes the toy figures kids love), mini D&D figures, small accents to add to furniture (such as a decorative mold detail seen on furniture)... I can see this being beneficial as a crafter for small details I would want to add to projects when I'm working on something.
Been looking at resin printers for making lost wax (lost resin?) casts for jewelry. This seems pretty much perfect as that's about the size I'd be printing.
I think this is great for someone who lives in a small apartment. I don't have a dedicated space to do much, and would often have to temporarily convert my dining table for painting or building miniatures.
I have an ender 3 pro and this printer. I use the Lite3dP for stuff like DnD characters or just small stuff/characters that i need. The Ender 3 pro is perfect for bigger projects that I can use for airsoft or around the house
Someone sent you a GPD Pocket laptop? That’s like an $800 laptop. You could be crazy portable with that. Pocket laptop and a pocket printer. Find us a pocket FDM printer now
Yeah, unless you want completely open source and require a super tiny build volume… it’s an extremely small use case of why someone would buy this over other low cost printer option s
I believe this printer would be a godsend to those that only want to do miniature figures. I'm an H-O scale model railroader and this will be great to print figures in various poses once they were converted from Poser or Daz 3D Studio. This also would apply to small scale detail parts. No need to buy a huge printer for such things when this printer could sit on one end of your workbench without taking up a lot of room. thank you for letting me know about this printer, as I will be looking into purchasing one for my modelling needs.
OH MYLANTA that thing is SO CUTE! I both love and hate it, but a really interesting video nonetheless! Crazy that it uses the standard LCD and the UV light as also the menu system, but innovative considering how light the vat is. Excited you got anything to print on it, nice work!
@@UncleJessy Have to give credit where it is due though! Gosh! Loved the B-roll of where it was on the build plate of the mono X ha ha! Really puts size into perspective!
I got my 1st Resin Printer for $100 when Microcenter was having a sale/coupon on the Creality Ender 3 pro and the Creality LD-002R I believe? I got the Ld-002r resin printer and Resin printing is awesome. So much details in a resin print.
I've got a Photon S; I'd get this for my son, whom is also just getting into tabletop gaming. Teach him from the ground up in it's entirety, including the card management and file conversions. Good vid, thnx.
Useful video. I just stumbled upon this thing, and it reminds me of the first (similarly tiny) FDM printer I built, which was later turned into a failed attempt at a top-down SLA printer. This project is entirely open-source, so adapting what I already have to it makes it more like a $10 project for me, and it's neat to see that it might actually get meaningful results.
Definitely interested in how small formfactor printers like this will evolve, I would like to own a resin printer for the occasional more detailed things my fdm is just not up for the task for, but something small like this that I could easily make a full enclosure for and shove in a corner would be amazing.
Finally got around to building this tiny printer after backing it on Crowd Supply. Out of the 5 resin printers I own it is the first that printed perfectly first time! Thoroughly recommended.
This would be such a great experimental platform, a little too expensive and at $79 it would be awesome to be like "can I add fine coffee to resin and print" cause if it breaks it is open source + cheap
I think this was made for the mini community (Warhammer, DND, etc). Which is great. I can also see this being useful for people making rings (For making molds).
looks like it has been mentioned before but this looks like it might be a good option for D&D players. Make your Custom mini and print it all during your session zero. it looks small enough to travel with so take it to conventions or to the local game store to print your party minis as you play the session.
For folks looking for a “cheap” but quality resin 3D printer you might want to consider the Proxima for $159

As DM myself, I hardly ever print just 1 mini - usually it is an entire encounter or player party, for which I would recomment at least something the size of a Mars 2
Yea or a turbo on model cars like me 💪
I got a photon s on sale for that price though so given the small volume I don't think it's worth it.
Honestly it's best use would be for reprinting the little bits that didn't come out right the first time on the big printer
This looks like a great stepping stone for open source; sort of like the E-Z-Bake oven of SLA printers. I hope that they continue to develop the concept into bigger and higher resolution options.
Ah yes all of the open source ovens that came after the E-Z Bake....
@@jerrywhidby. Don't be an ass...I would expect any rational adult to understand what I was saying.
why did this not show up on my feed earlier!! i need one now!!
Cool to see you over here.
Let me know if you grab one!
I can see this thing used for single miniatures without committing a large amount of resin in a large vat. For someone in a condo that has limited air venting, this tiny resin printer would be great.
I would pick one up to print one off small model parts.
It doesn't have a hood so if anything, this would smell up your room more than a proper printer you can get for the same price or even less.
@@AKKK1182 well, how hard is it to diy a hood for something this size?
@@evannarendraangragani7508 For a 100 bucks you shouldn't have to worry about a DIY hood.
@@AKKK1182 how is a hundred expensive for this?
@@lucaskp16 because for a 100 bucks you can get a proper last gen printer.
Just bought the Voxelab Proxima 6.0 for $99 on the Amazon deal yesterday, can't wait to get it! My first resin printer!
This seems pretty interesting for small casting projects.
Small jewelry could easily be printed on this and then cast in metal.
The low resolution doesn’t really matter, as there will be some sanding and polishing anyway
This would be perfect for someone looking to print a mini or 2 every couple days. Especially if the price comes down a bit. And honestly I am thinking about getting one to see if I like resin instead of getting a full elgoo or somthing like that
Imagine playing a D&D game and you pull this little printer out of your bag and print up your characters mini. It’s just… fun.
Yeah this was instantly the first/best use case that came to my mind. This thing is perfect for printing minis for D&D (like Starganderfish said). Only part that sort of was disappointing was the part about it being slow. It would be cool to get a new player to your game and in about 15 minutes have their new character's mini printed out but still it seems fast enough. Still, speed aside, having to use (and later clean up) so little resin is a huge bonus. Sometimes I hate having to handle a lot of resin on my Photon just to print out a tiny mini and it's not even a big printer.
@@Starganderfish hey guys let’s have a few drinks while I print off a new character 😂
It does have some interesting possibilities
@@Starganderfish This doesn't seem to have a mono screen, so even with the kind of horrible z-step by todays standards (min 0,05mm Z layers) it would take a whole lot of time to print off a single mini. Probably around 6-8 hours with a 0,05 mm layer height. With a mono screen it would be around 2-3 hours, but I still wouldn't call it fast.
Also the thing with resin printers is that the only thing that adds time is the z axis. So you're basically sacrificing the only dimensions that don't add print time when opting for a smaller build plate.
It's a fun "DIY" style demonstration kit for sure, but the price and execution makes it impractical for pretty much any real world use case.
It looks like all you need to do is make a PCB with a larger screen and the build volume can increase. It would be interesting to play around with this open source printer.
You'd probably need to modify the firmware to account for a higher screen resolution or you'd end up with blocky prints, but yes, that was my thinking as well.
@@StarkRG Shouldn't be a problem if the software is open. I haven't delved into the project, so I don't know if it is. Microcontroller coding is pretty straightforward.
In any event, a resin printer that is as compact as this one deserves a huge amount of credit. I never thought of combining a PCB with a display and that serve as the base. These types of printers, with the help of out of the box thinkers like ones from this development makes me very excited for things to come. Advances are happening so fast.
I think you've nailed the best use-case for this: demonstration and teaching. It's so low-stakes! That banding looks like there's no antialiasing, which is probably due to the weird format conversion. Also, I think there is a way you could get a flex plate on there without losing much if any build height... It would require a milling machine. Shave 0.4mm off the build plate, clear out some pockets for magnets. Pocket depth might be a problem.
This seems to be the equivalent of those toy EasyThreed FDM printers. A friend of mine bought one for about USD60. At least, it's an appropriate price, since it's about a third of what you'd pay for an Ender 3.
"What is this? A 3D Printer for ants? How can we expect to teach children how to 3D print, if they can't even fit their files inside the build volume?"
Kinda smart design, even uses the PCB board as a structural element. Love that tiny linear rail. I would have not though that 320x240 resolution is enough for resin printing.
To be honest, at the size of the prints being done on that printer, the pixels per inch is probably similar to that of a larger but higher resolution printer.
My boyfriend figured out his Christmas present i had been planning for months so i have been stressed about coming up with a new idea, you came out with this at a perfect time because this is perfect for him, he has next to no space for a 3D printer but would love one for making gas tanks and stuff for his models, just tiny bits that usually cost an arm and a leg to buy but make a world of different for models
This is ADORABLE 🥰 …and expensive.
$150 can buy an excellent resin printer now 🤷♂️
Lovely video Uncle Jessy!
Agreed. You’re much better off spending $150 on a larger, better printing machine. But a cool concept for some folks out there
This is wonderful! A lot of people use resin for tiny little prints like dnd miniatures and such, I think it would honestly be perfect at that size
It's neat but the price point is very off-putting considering you can pick up a brand new OG Photon for around $30 more. Even less if you go with a used one. It is neat tho, but the biggest value here seems to be the novelty of having a micro printer to show your friends.
This is honestly perfect for doing what I want which is printing game mini's, glad I caught this vid, the printer is seriously impressive!
Not sure if this printer will have a spot in the market beyond the novelty, but I love some of the innovations in this tiny resin printer.
I'm really impressed by their clever design decisions, using the exposure LCD as your interface LCD is a really clever price saver!
Just purchased one, I have been wanting to play with resin printing and this looks like a great start
what an effing time, man this is so cool.
a little build project, customizable, and tiny desksized
I can practice sculpting skulls for a tiny skull pile, and keep this on my desk
( and my earliest work will be buried under my best lol )
my entire workflow doesnt even have to leave the desk ffs
and the most I could spill is what, a half cup of resin?
It’s pretty damn wild. And I would say just a few ounces not even a half a cup 😂
I wouldn't keep an SLA printer in a living space. The toxicity and allergenic potential of UV-curable resins are really understated in the 3D printing community.
This is one of those "but why" machines in my opinion. Like, a "standard" sized 6" display printer doesn't take up too much room and has a substantially larger build area. Considering you can find them for both much cheaper than this (I mean, the Voxelab Polaris was on sale.for $99 yesterday), I'm not really sure who I'd recommend this to
It's not always about money and size (said no girl ever) ;-)
Jokes aside: I am fine with my FDM printer but sometimes I have small parts which are very hard to print. I never liked the idea of getting a second printer and so this one is the perfect alternative for me.
It's open source and easy to repair, modify, extend, etc.
I might even power it with a battery so I can put it anywhere without "blocking my workspace" due to the fumes.
@@falias4 I mean, I understand why you'd get a resin printer, as I have both resin and FDM, as the resin printers produce much finer details. I just feel like this is pushing the "it's so small it's unusable" limit. Like, I have a Voxelab Polaris (similar to the mars), and it's build area is significantly larger than this, yet, I still run into it not being big enought to print a lot of things that I'd like to print
It's really only a few $ in key parts. I might just build one, not buy their kit, just make just about every part myself. Like etch the PCB myself, cut my own bed, 3D print a bunch of bits, figure out the bits that are made in a certain way and make them differently, maybe even take it as an inspiration and design one myself.
It’s so freaking cute haha. For its size it is impressive that it can produce good looking prints.
This sounds perfect for someone doing resin minis. If i'm printing for personal use, i think i'd rather have 1 or 2 of these than a single larger resin printer that cost 5x as much.
My reasoning is, while printing one D&D mini, i could start another on another printer. If i'm using a larger printer, i'd have to wait until that one is done, or get all of the mini models ready to print all at once.
Now if i was printing multiples at once, i'd definitely want a larger printer. Then i could print 8 or 10 of the same mini at the same time. Or a bunch of different minis all at once. But for someone that just wants to print their own D&D mini, this sounds great.
It's astounding how much things can change in a short amount of time. Just 8 months after this video's release, Anycubic started selling off their remaining stock of Photon Mono Sqs for just $99 (with coupon code). In 8 months, we've gone from $99 getting you this dodgy little printer to a proper, 50 micron resolution mono-screen printer with a build volume larger than an Elegoo Mars. Absolutely wild.
Have a link?
I just ordered this little 3D printer. I'm going to use it next to my Peopoly Phenom L. I know you can get a better resin printer for around the same amount of money. I have the Voxelab Proxima and it's about as good as you're going to get for the price. That being said I feel $99 is a small price to pay to support open source development. Thank you for another outstanding video Uncle Jessy.
Lol. Two years later and the Lite3DP Gen 2 is now $300. Way to go 😅
thats perfect for small volume colour mixing experiments. i made a smaller vat and plate for my mars to do the same thing. saves on wasted resin
This is so great for electronics work because usually you need small parts with very fine detail
Photon zero was the same price. But for $115 you can get a decent bottle of resin. It's the printer I started on
2 years later my 2k 160mm high Creality Halot One was $99 free shipping no tax on walmart ... and it wasnt even black friday. but it was mislabeled "cacagoo halot one" but was brand new, worked perfect and i got the uv station for $32 on dollar hog used :D worked perfect just had some clicking noise that i fixed with spare bearing that came with it, previous owner just lazy. with money i saved i got a 3 for 2 deal on anycubic HIGH CLEAR 3 kg for $80 :D i have so many clear x wings and TOY glocks on my table.
I want one, imagine having a few making dnd minis… and it’s in kits… I LOVE KITS
as many have pointed out, it would be perfect for miniatures for various games. Takes up no space at all basically (so limited cleanup and easy to store away when it's not in use), it's super affordable so even for someone looking to just print minis from time to time it makes sense and you usually don't need 20 minis of something very fast, you need like a few here and there (at least for d&d like I would use it for).
When can we expect the Wham Bam flex plate for this system!? XD
Hahaha adding that one would remove 20% of the build height 😂
Well, you got conned into advertising for them. I figured I'd buy one just to try it out... except that in roughly one month's time, the price has been increased by 50%. It is now a $149 printer. So.... I went with the black friday deals on a Photon S for $40 more. Then there's the issue of $18 shipping vs. free shipping as well, so the Photon was actually only $22 more.
EDIT: My mistake. The Photon S is actually only FOUR DOLLARS more. The Lite3DP currently doesn't include a power supply, which they sell separately for another $18. This tiny thing costs $189 all in. Definitely not worth it when many larger resin printers, with UV protective enclosures, cost roughly the same.
First thing I'd do is extend the z hight and see how tall I can reasonably print hollow items with it's vat and motor.
As someone who has lived in a house their entire lives with at least 2 or 3 PCs in it, it's mind-blowing to think that there are still people without 1
Sadly, this printer seems to be no longer available, at least at the link provided. It looks like they only manufactured about 500 and they're gone.
Beyond that though, I think you keep forgetting that not everyone has an interest in printing busts or cosplay helmets. This would be a perfectly serviceable machine for 99% of the scale model building world. Engine components, ejection seats, munitions, wheels, cockpit details, etc... This seems tailor made for diorama components such as boxes, crates, barrels, or jerrycans in 1:35 scale. N or HO scale model trains have so many scenery parts that this could create. Honestly, I can think of so many things that would print perfectly well on a little machine like this, and none of them involve Joker busts. I think there's an amazingly large market for a small printer like this, so it's a shame that it appears to be sold out.
I could finally print my own lego piece to complete my Death Star set 🥲
"This box is bigger than the smaller boxes within it."
Yes. That's how containers work.
Nevertheless I gotta get me one of these when I move into my studio.
This thing must come from the "it HAS to be Arduino" school of design. Featuring the worst available SPI interface for both SD card and display controller and an expensive single source 8-bit MCU (that doesn't have the memory to do decompression) to run all the logic... the firmware doesn't even bother with loading the next frame while running the Z axis motors ("printname" is the image loading function, of course). And the schematic is flashy but nigh illegible (uses net names all over, but not consistent names for the same net). Much could be improved.
Yup, I agree. I hope this is just a first barely-put-together version and they will release an upgraded version in the future. If they changed to literally any 32 bit MCU (heck, if they wanted to keep the thing easy to hack, a Raspberry Pi Pico would work) and a better LCD this might actually become half-decent.
@Enrico Conca The RP2040 would be pretty good, though e.g. ESP32 may be an even better fit, with native SD, Wi-fi and display output (it's a mode of their I²S block). For their current thing, parallel motor control and RLE bitmaps would help.
That is adorable, so tiny. Love how you showed the size by putting it in the other printers.
This would be amazing at a slightly lower price point, I don't know if that's possible. I would love to pick this up but hard to justify spending $100 on something so impractical. Would definitely be a neat desk prop type of thing, print a mini every now and then for giggles.
But the resin remains equally toxic, so printing a mini every now and then on a desk prop doesn't sound that smart ... I agree with the other comments: with first gen non-mono SLA printers being available for the same (or lower) price and having actual replacement parts and include a spatula and come assembled, why bother with this?
@@MisterkeTube only have 1 cubic foot of space to print in? people who live in refrigerator boxes? 🤣🤣🤣
Considering the Photon Zero is the same price, I agree. It's just not a lot of machine for the money
At least it was released. Remember the resin peachy printer failure
I collect 1/12 scale action figures and Transformers, which seems to be different than intended kind of customer for this, but that joker bust looks pretty good and seems to be around 1/10 scale. I'd like to be able to make my own specific custom parts without having to commission someone for each one, and this looks like a good size for my limited living space.
I was just thinking about a use case for this regarding Transformers. I don’t know if you know about Hightail Creations, but he does 3D printed figures using a full size resin printer to avoid print lines. The downside being that resin prints aren’t strong enough for any of the joints you’d usually find on a figure, leading him to have to do more pinned joints. I could see a use case where you use a PLA printer for joints and basically the structure of a figure and then a little Resin printer for outer armor pieces. Might need something a little bigger if you wanna do anything bigger than a Deluxe though.
@@JacobHillSBD yeah, I don't see this printer making anything big enough to scale with sizes larger than a deluxe class (except for tiny accessories and decorative parts)
Where is everyone getting these resin printers for the prices they are quoting? The Lite3DP is not $99, it's $125 USD. Then I keep reading comments like, "this thing is too expensive, I got my much bigger Hoobaloo 6.3 or whatever for $99 on Amazon," but when I look at the prices, they are $189 and up.
I could support this if it was like $60. You can buy bigger and higher quality printers for just a bit more money.
That resin pour into something so small was super clean! I always end up with resin dropping down the side of the bottle 🤣
Haha I usually end up with resin all down the sides of my bottles as well
THANK YOU 👌
For your question for who is this good for, let me explain why it fits my needs absolutely perfectly :
Im in automotive and specialized in electronics repairs.. Almost every time i have a bigger job to do, there a at least 2 connectors to replace.. So because i can't get them "new" from the manufacturer i spend 2-3 days checking out the junkyards to find what i need.. So maybe 2-3 years ago i started fdm 3d printing and could get managed to print some bigger connectors with an 0.1 nozzle.. An "normal" sized resin printer is just a "a waste of space" because i really only need it to print connectors. So to 3d model one takes me around 20min and then i could print them and get the job way much quicker done, thats why this awesome tiny guy is perfect for me 👌😁
You forgot to mention that since it is an open source, it is not using a Chitu board.
Went to look into buying one to play with, but they seem to be off sale.
I really love the size of this machine. Perfect for board game parts, tabletop minis, diecast or model railroad mods. I am really hurting for space. This is a printer I can definitely find a space to operate! Plus it’s just neat!
Im debating this as my first resin printer. Im going to be iterating small parts and is so convenient to deal with small a vat. now that I'm looking at the design I'm wondering if they would eventually make replacement screens?
Thank goodness one of the big guys covered this. I was worried my amateur self was going to have to make a terrible video
I'm surprised at how well it printed! How loud is it? With it being so small, I wonder if it it's also fairly quiet.
This would be a fun printer, that you can take to a friends house, or to conventions.
Have you ever tried printing dice? Like D6's, D12's, and D20's? I wonder how well 3D printers would print them, especially something this small. Would be kinda cool to take this somewhere, and make a D5 or D7 die, as those seem to be the least popular, thus you never have enough of them.
Extremely quiet. Yeah I will be bringing it with me to the Rochester Makerfaire
Rybonator has a video on printing dice
@@mudawott i was just watching a few of his dice making videos like 30 minutes ago! Just found his channel, so I haven't seen that video yet. But I'll look for it!
@@Fearmylogic Its a good tutorial. I figure out how to make some dice masters from it.
You know, for someone that just wants to print miniatures this is probably an ok buy to test out resin printer. If it is for them then they buy a bigger printer. If this is made well it would be a good introductory. Small FDM printers are kinda useless but a resin printer is for small high detail parts.
So I want to be able to print more detailed minis for DnD and I know resin printing can do that better. However, I live in an apartment so I don't really have proper ventilation. Would something like this be a good resin printer to have or is there other resin printers that are slightly bigger that don't need a ton of ventilation? I would only really be using it for standard sized minis.
As tiny as it is you could probably build an air evacuation system with the shipping box, some duct tape, a small amount of flex duct and a small fan to manage fumes
There are MANY times we end up having to print out a single ring/pendant to jewelers prior to final printing out a set for investment and casting.
It is very suitable in wasting a minimal amount of resin; capable of making a much lesser mess... obligate much less usage of alcohol...
Thus: have me a lot less annoyed at the client when they say "I have to see with it in my hands.. I do not understand it when on the screen" (though in their defense: they do pay the difference)
I am surely having one to order.
Thank you so much for the review2ish share of your fiddling with it. I would have never gone for it due to my expectations for the price alone!
Note: I double that it is basically a GREAT thing to carry around with you to conventions and so forth... .Even the bare-bones format it comes in allows you ability to build a case around it custom to you and/or your company/stand/team/booth.
I'd kind of like to play around with one, but the slicing is and issue as well as the re-levelling each time. You do wonder whether it would be better run from USB-C or something, I'd have thought that should be possible.
Looks awesome and perfect for all I would want it for...printing miniatures. Sadly, they don't have that anymore and are pushing a $299 second generation one.
Thanks you so much for support my patreon 🙇♂️🙇♂️🙇♂️🙇♂️
The man himself! Get ready to see some more prints… much larger than this in some other videos 🤘😬
🤟🤟🤟🔥🔥🔥I really want to see it 🤩🤩
I just checked…it’s 125 now, plus 15 for the power supply, and 8 bucks shipping.
I really wanted this because of its small size and simplicity, but at that price it makes more sense to buy the proxima
looks like more of a novelty item then a useful printer when you can get a voxelab proxima for like 30-40 dollars more with a significantly larger build plate and it prints amazing.
army men (yes the toy figures kids love), mini D&D figures, small accents to add to furniture (such as a decorative mold detail seen on furniture)... I can see this being beneficial as a crafter for small details I would want to add to projects when I'm working on something.
They have literally more than tripled the price to $299... Talk about greed and stupidity.
Been looking at resin printers for making lost wax (lost resin?) casts for jewelry. This seems pretty much perfect as that's about the size I'd be printing.
$265. Why buy this? They lost the plot.
No kidding, seemed like a cute novelty which I can see 99$ being fair but 299$ (now) is insane
I think this is great for someone who lives in a small apartment. I don't have a dedicated space to do much, and would often have to temporarily convert my dining table for painting or building miniatures.
Sooooo cute! And such a space saver for someone that wants to just do small minis.
Yeah could be a potentially great option for people that just want to print individual minis and save a ton of space
I mean... For $99 to have a solid miniature figure printer or small parts in general? Badass!
haha, this one is so tiny 😅
Hello there bud
This one is awesome
But you too man
Love your channel ❤️
I have an ender 3 pro and this printer. I use the Lite3dP for stuff like DnD characters or just small stuff/characters that i need. The Ender 3 pro is perfect for bigger projects that I can use for airsoft or around the house
Someone sent you a GPD Pocket laptop? That’s like an $800 laptop. You could be crazy portable with that. Pocket laptop and a pocket printer.
Find us a pocket FDM printer now
For anyone having the same question as me: The screen resolution isn't mentioned anywhere, but they advertise the 'XY resolution' at 0,14 mm.
I don't see why somebody would spend $99 on this, I see this as more of a a novelty when you can get a Anycubic Zero printer for $99.
Yeah, unless you want completely open source and require a super tiny build volume… it’s an extremely small use case of why someone would buy this over other low cost printer option s
@@UncleJessy I mean don't get me wrong I was really surprised that thing actually printed and the quality of it! Lol.
Thank you for finding a great Christmas gift happy holidays🎅
I believe this printer would be a godsend to those that only want to do miniature figures. I'm an H-O scale model railroader and this will be great to print figures in various poses once they were converted from Poser or Daz 3D Studio. This also would apply to small scale detail parts. No need to buy a huge printer for such things when this printer could sit on one end of your workbench without taking up a lot of room.
thank you for letting me know about this printer, as I will be looking into purchasing one for my modelling needs.
i thought it would be the Ender 3 Pro you can get for just $99 with a coupon only for new customers
yes i wrote a sponsored message
OH MYLANTA that thing is SO CUTE! I both love and hate it, but a really interesting video nonetheless! Crazy that it uses the standard LCD and the UV light as also the menu system, but innovative considering how light the vat is. Excited you got anything to print on it, nice work!
Yeah I was honestly surprised it was actually printing!
@@UncleJessy Have to give credit where it is due though! Gosh! Loved the B-roll of where it was on the build plate of the mono X ha ha! Really puts size into perspective!
I got my 1st Resin Printer for $100 when Microcenter was having a sale/coupon on the Creality Ender 3 pro and the Creality LD-002R I believe? I got the Ld-002r resin printer and Resin printing is awesome. So much details in a resin print.
I’m interested in it for making jewelry. Like rings, ear rings and necklace pendants for casting.
I've got a Photon S; I'd get this for my son, whom is also just getting into tabletop gaming. Teach him from the ground up in it's entirety, including the card management and file conversions.
Good vid, thnx.
Useful video. I just stumbled upon this thing, and it reminds me of the first (similarly tiny) FDM printer I built, which was later turned into a failed attempt at a top-down SLA printer. This project is entirely open-source, so adapting what I already have to it makes it more like a $10 project for me, and it's neat to see that it might actually get meaningful results.
Definitely interested in how small formfactor printers like this will evolve, I would like to own a resin printer for the occasional more detailed things my fdm is just not up for the task for, but something small like this that I could easily make a full enclosure for and shove in a corner would be amazing.
When you really just need that
one D&D character mini or Battletech Mech for your game... this thing looks like fun to toy around with
gunpla builders will love this machine
Finally got around to building this tiny printer after backing it on Crowd Supply. Out of the 5 resin printers I own it is the first that printed perfectly first time! Thoroughly recommended.
That’s hilarious that it actually works - and works pretty damn well! Great video!
This would be such a great experimental platform, a little too expensive and at $79 it would be awesome to be like "can I add fine coffee to resin and print" cause if it breaks it is open source + cheap
Good for dioramas (small details like people, boxes, pallets,...
I think this was made for the mini community (Warhammer, DND, etc). Which is great. I can also see this being useful for people making rings (For making molds).
This is an unlimited bitz factory for miniature conversions and custom parts!
Priced for the hobbyist too, i am very interested in more results ...
Holy shit. This is perfect for printing miniatures without a huge investment.
It’s so adorable!
looks like it has been mentioned before but this looks like it might be a good option for D&D players. Make your Custom mini and print it all during your session zero. it looks small enough to travel with so take it to conventions or to the local game store to print your party minis as you play the session.
Using the UV light screen as the main screen for the printer is actually kinda genius for saving space
