I’m currently tinkering around with the ‘Anycubic Photon S’ to get a first impression. I’m already hooked up and like to buy an SLA-printer for the job. I’m in strong favour for an (Prusa) SL1S because of its speed, the prusaslicer and support. So, although money is fortunetely not a problem, I can spent it only once.

So I’d like to ask about your experience. Anyone using an SL1S and wants to share his/ hers experience?

Only downside I can see at the moment is the (relatively) small bed. A bigger one might come in handy, but it also makes the whole process even more messy (bigger washing provisions, waste, etc.).

So - any users of a big (build) volume SLA printer, like the ‘Anycubic Photon Mono M3 Max’ around who also might want to drop a line?

Thanks a lot for your support, have fun printing!

    We just bought an Anycubic Photon D2. We don’t need a huge build plate (though the D2 is pretty big) and wanted a workhorse. The long life and lower power use were big selling points.

    Edit: I also wanted to add that after useing Prusaslicer for my mk3s for years I still ended up going with Lychee slicer for SLA. I find adding supports easier even though I miss Prusaslicer’s UI and polish every time I use Lychee.

    I’ve got a photon mono 4k and I dig it

    The bed size can be a bit restrictive but the machine is a trooper
