I had 2 Robo R1+ printers for years. My son (18 now) sells VR sports training subscriptions and prints 3d parts to attach the VR controller to a lacrosse stick.

I thought I loved those printers. One died this spring, and I bought an Anycubic photon mono x resin printer.

I have to say, it puts filament printers to shame. The level of detail is amazing. If laid out properly the speed is amazing.

The only downside is the resin needs to be treated like a hazardous substance. If you get it on your hands, no matter how many times you wash, you can smell and taste it. I go through so many nitrile gloves now.

But, I could never go back to filament. I haven’t turned on my remaining robo printer since I got this new one running.

I have been pining for a resin printer, but we have so many other projects right now that it probably is not going to happen anytime soon. My wife has enough objections to my printing in the house with filament because of odors and noise at night especially.
