Best Printer for Terrain

Best Resin Tools

Best Cheap Resin

Best Tough Resin
Description:

If you want to print a ton of miniatures, changes are you do not want to blow $40 pr. liter.


The cheap resin market is very crowded, but Sunlu is the best of those I have tested

Description:

If you want good detail, this is one of the best value resins I have found.


It prints amazing and is quite durable out of the box. Also, it is not the most expensive option.

Description:

I would never print anything with only this, but I mix in about 10% in almost all of my resins. Why? Because it makes it that the print that much durable without adding a ton to the cost.

Best 3D Printer for Miniatures

Best Printer for Beginner's
Best Printer for Large Models
Printer with Highest Resolution

The Mars 4 DLP is a great printer for beginners. It uses a projector instead of an LCD screen, so there is no fear of bricking an expensive screen (and for beginners this is big)


For the price you pay the quality is surprisingly good because of the DLP technology.

While not the greatest of the greatest in terms of print quality (that is how it is with big printers), it is extrmely useful to be able to print big models and fill the build plate with tons of miniatures.


That is what you get with the Saturn 3. One of my all time favorite machines.

f you are just looking to print the best miniatures you possible can, the Mars 4 with an XY resolution of 18 microns is your best bet.


Overall just a great package with the best quality you can get. Also, great price, but slightly feature bare (compared to more expensive printers)
