Hi all,

I’m quite new to resin printing and I was wondering if one was able to post-cure their prints with he printer’s built in “cleaning” function. I mean, it’s a pretty powerful UV light, right there. Does this damage the LCD more than usual? I was thinking of just “roasting” prints to cure them. If anyone tried it before, do share.

    Haven’t tried to use the printer for curing. I built my own curing box using a decommissioned microwave, some spare wood and mirrors, and a rather powerful UV source.

    I guess you could build yourself a mirror box to hold the object and place it on the printer instead of using a separate UV source.

    The printer should be able to handle the generated heat, so I don’t think you’ll see increased wear.
