A look at the powerful Lychee Slicer, Free & Pro versions. I was amongst the first to review Lychee, 3 years ago, and a lot has changed since then. Has it improved in that time? Has it stood the test of time? Is it still a versatile and effective 3D printing slicer? Do the differences between Pro and Free justify the costs?
Make your own minds up. It's free to find out.

This is the most innovative resin printer Ive seen ( https://bit.ly/3YChxjL ). The UniFormation GK2 has gone from being a printer Ive never heard of to the one thats impressed me most since the Anycubic Ultra. No, its not a DLP, but it is packed with genuinely clever thinking, and for me its destined to be a huge influencer on the printing industry.

An honest look at the REVAMPED extra large Phrozen Sonic Mega 8K 3D resin printer, now known as the 8KS. Equally large and as impressive as its older brother, the new 8KS have one massive difference - price!
At approx. $800 less, Phrozen have made extra large 3D resin printing more accessible.

Prints fail, or they look rubbish, and the usual culprit for that is incorrect Exposure Times. Theres many useful tools to help fix this, including the Phrozen XP Finder which Ill explain here fully, giving a blow by blow demo - along with a few other printing tips 😁
I know its confusing, hunting around for the perfect setting to match your printer. But the truth is that might not help. The best thing to do is tune in the resin to MATCH your printer. Luckily resin calibration is much easier than youd think, and here Ill show you how.

![BETTER cleaning & curing of 3D resin prints [EASY METHOD]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/kL9TCjtPbw4/mqdefault.jpg "BETTER cleaning & curing of 3D resin prints [EASY METHOD]
3D resin printing is great, but messy. I often get asked if I have any tips I can share to make cleaning and curing easier and more thorough. So in this video I share the steps I typically follow which hopefully contain a few tips and tricks. 😁
Using a wash and cure machine is certainly appealing, but what about an ultrasonic cleaner. These are considered more efficient by many. Then theres pre-dipping to rinse away the bulk of the resin, and air blasting to achieve much the same.
As you can see, theres more to it than you may think.

The Elegoo Saturn 2 prints bigger and with an 8K, 28 micron resolution prints finer, but is it as good as its looks suggest? Here I take a close look and the build quality and performance of Elegoo’s latest 3D resin printer and put it through its paces.
With 3d resin printers getting larger, Elegoo sets out here to prove that quality isnt left behind. Possibly the most impressive printer weve seen from Elegoo so far, the Saturn 2 is bigger in more ways than one.
