The Formlabs Form 2 is more than an expensive 3D printer

2015-12-02
hi guys this is the form to form form layer now this one is the stereo lithography 3d printer and that means it has this print platform on top here that goes down to the resin tank here and pull up a three object now that is a very long process these chests be set right here for example took some 20 hours to finish but it's worth the wait because the printer can actually make very very high quality object as you can see here now the resin is very sticky as you can see and that means the object here need to be cleaned with alcohol before you can use them the good news is that the printer comes with this finished kit right here for that and me I have no problem alcohol at all okay maybe a little bit now apart from chess pieces the printer can bring other things to like larger chess pieces I like my queen extra large please or this small little butterfly right here basically any object of size five point seven by five point seven by six point nine inches the larger the longer it takes to print now as you have seen the print platform is removable or you haven't seen however is the fact that the resin tank here is also removable and the resin cartridge right here is very easy to replace and that means you can suite material without having to clean anything at all remember the only one pre platform one cartridge and one resin tank are included with the printer now the printer is very easy to use the hard parts to make it level now it has four adjustable feet so it's kind of tricky to make it stayed level and stable at the same time but even if you are clumsy you not take you more than half an hour to get the printer here up and run it it took me no more than five minutes now the front touch screen here really helped now the printer here can work via USB or network both Y&Y five are supported it won't really wear my testing no hiccups at all not even one single filtering within two way that I used it but before you get too excited it has one huge drawback the price now the printer itself costs some thirty five hundred dollars and any extra cartridge like this one right here will cost you are not under $50 to three hundred dollars depending on the color of the type of material so obviously it's much cheaper to buy stuff ready-made at the store but if you have something very unique to MIT which is why you should get a 3d printer to begin with this form to here will make it worth your hard earned money and by the way if you're wondering what I had to say about chess-playing well not much really there's only one thing which is the only thing I say at the very end of each match i play and that is checkmate and that's because I'm double or this has been the first look at the form to 3d printer from foam lamps
