15 essential extras for 3D resin printers
3D printing with resin is becoming a more accessible hobby for curious newcomers, thanks to affordable hardware and a growing community offering advice, but you'll need some essential extras before starting. Some of the best 3D resin printers, such as the Anycubic Photon and Elegoo Mars, are perfect for beginners with enough patience to learn. It's a more complex method than FDM filament 3D printing, and you'll need these accessories to keep you safe. Some will make life a little easier when creating models, and some are critical to maintaining a healthy printing environment.
Pickle container/model bath
Made for cleaning
This little pickle container has a strainer perfect for cleaning your smaller models.
Just fill the container with isopropyl alcohol and put your model in the strainer. You can then use the strainer to lift it out of the bath when it's ready.
Nitrile disposable gloves
Safety first
You don't want to get resin on your skin. Nitrile gloves are the most critical thing on this list, and having a good supply will save you from some severe chemical burns. Resin printing is a lot of fun and rewarding, but be safe.
BuildTak 3D print removal tool
Print removal
Removing the print from the build plate to your resin bath is essential without damaging it. This extra-wide knife allows you to get the model without stressing it, and the 90-degree angle from the blade to the handle helps spread pressure evenly.
DDSKY 2-pack strong suction cup handles
Easy lifting
Resin printers often have lift-off acrylic covers that become dirty.
This 2-pack of suction cup handles helps you remove the lid. One is clean for when you don't have resin on your hands, and one is dirty for when you do.
Plastic putty knife
When things go wrong
Not every print is successful. Sometimes your print doesn't stay on the print bed, and you need to remove it from your FEP sheet in the vat. Using a metal scraper will immediately ruin the FEP, so use one of these plastic scrapers instead.
Extra soft bristle toothbrush
Not for your teeth!
When you have detailed prints, you need to get rid of the excess resin from all the lines. These ultra soft-bristled toothbrushes work excellently, but you need to be as gentle as possible. If you scrub at them too hard, you could damage the print.
50 micron paint strainers
Strain away the bad
You often have to change resins when 3D printing, and it's essential not to get any cured resin mixed in.
These nylon filters are perfect for filtering resin, and a 50-pack should keep you going for a while.
Anycubic Wash and Cure V2
Clean solution
The Wash and Cure Box from Anycubic is cheap and, frankly, excellent for finishing the resin printing process, and you would be doing yourself a disservice by not owning one. It washes and cures your prints all in one handy machine.
FEP film
Don't skimp
All 3D-printing parts break at some point. Be prepared for the worst, and keep a spare FEP film handy or, in this case, six. A good quality film will last a long while in most DLP printers.
Home air purifier
Breathe free
While resin printing isn't carcinogenic, it is smelly. Always use resin 3D printers in a well-ventilated room, but having an air purifier certainly doesn't hurt.
It clears irritants out of the air and works on any mold or smoke from your workshop.
UV curing light
Hard light
The last step in finishing a resin print is curing, done in bright sunlight or using a UV lamp. With some elbow grease, this powerful lamp can make a cool UV curing station.
Safety glasses
Eye protection
You only get one set of eyes. Even at relatively low levels of intense UV, continued exposure can be harmful. Besides, you don't want resin in or near your eyes either.
Dual cartridge respirator
Breathe easy
It might look a little much, but resin gives off noxious fumes. If you don't have a great ventilation system, then a respirator is essential. If you're planning on spray-painting your prints, you'll want one of these anyway. With replaceable filters, this half mask will last you years.
Why you can trust Windows Central Our expert reviewers spend hours testing and comparing products and services so you can choose the best for you. Find out more about how we test.
To properly enjoy resin 3D printing, we must be careful and respect the tools. While there are fewer toxic resins available (even some that you can wash in a bucket of water), the fact is that in their uncured state, these photopolymer resins are more dangerous than the thermoplastic filaments used in FDM/FFF printing.
Check our roundup of the best resin for SLA/DLP 3D printers for advice on which brand to choose. The nitrile gloves are an absolute must if you want to handle liquid resin or any models after printing. You want to be wearing safety glasses as well.
Nitrile is less irritating to the skin, and unlike latex and vinyl, far fewer people have adverse effects from wearing these. On a lighter note, the 3D printing community found pickle containers might help with cleaning, and they're right.
Some suggestions might not seem so critical at first glance, but they'll prove their worth quickly enough when used with a superb resin printer like the Anycubic Photon.

(There is a solution) remaining photopolymer resins
Safety first
I suggest the following handling of resins, some basic things first:
- ALWAYS wear disposable disposable gloves when handling resin.
- Respirators are highly recommended. nine0159
- Work in a well-ventilated area.
- Resin processing tools are designed for resin only to prevent contamination of other tools.
- Try to minimize the amount added to VAT so that you have as few balances as possible.
Recycle
Now what to do to return the used resin back to the cycle? Any resin that has been exposed to air and light, such as in a vat, is best considered B-grade. You can use it to cast greeblies or bits (aka recycling by curing) as you would with leftover casting (2-component) resin, but it's a waste of time. nine0006
Step 1: Refilling the bottle
So let's look at some of the best ways: first of all, refilling the resin. We must keep in mind that the quality of our resin will deteriorate further the longer it is exposed to light (and to a lesser extent air), so we must handle the resin in a way that does not expose it to any of these. The best way to do this is to keep an empty resin bottle handy and label it as a leftover bottle. To fill this bottle, you must use a jig to hold the vat in such a position that it pours into the bottle. In some cases, you may need a funnel! nine0006
Step 2: Reconditioning
Now we know how to put the substance back into the bottle (B-quality).
But how to make sure it is of the best quality we can? As you can see, many jigs include a funnel. This funnel is used in combination with a filter to remove larger particles. The thinner the filter, the better. Coffee filters manage to capture particles as small as 10-15 micrometers. This is roughly equivalent to Grade 4 laboratory filter paper. However, laboratory filter paper grades 1,2,3 or 602n would allow even smaller particles to be captured, since the mesh becomes even smaller, but can clog faster. Tea filters, on the other hand, have the worst filtering power and should be avoided. nine0006
To get the most out of it, use a filter stack that starts with a metal strainer and then goes through a coarse and fine filter to remove any lumps and large particles that might clog the fine filter.
It would be best to run this process in the dark, so installing a drip stack and filter in the box may seem like overkill at first, but if you're going through a lot of resin (by running multiple printers, for example), this could be an investment that can save you money.
a significant amount of resin in the long run. However, if you use that many printers, you can also run them all the time with the same resin colors and just refill them as needed and only filter if a print failure occurs. nine0006
Step 3: Storage
Store bottles in a closed cabinet. It would be better if this cabinet was ventilated through a filter unit and then outside. It must also maintain a constant temperature above about 10°C to prevent clumping. Just follow the instructions for storing regular resin really.
Step 4: Reuse
Now comes the hard part: reusing the resin. While technically a filtered and re-bottled resin should be almost as good as new, it would be better to make sure we mix it with some kind of virgin resin to make sure we have enough photoinitiator in the resin. To do this, I would suggest mixing recycled resin with six or a half fresh material. Mix them well to make sure you get the very best. Make sure it's the same type and color of resin you're using, preferably even from the same original batch.
