Is Resin 3D Printing better than FDM? (I tested it)
After years of FDM 3D printing, I finally took the plunge into the resin world—and wow, the quality difference is no joke. In this video, I’ll show you what it’s like to set up, print, and clean everything (spoiler: it’s a bit messy but worth it). From insane detail to that perfect injection-molded look, resin printing is basically FDM's cooler, more polished cousin. But is the extra work and gear really worth it for beginners like us? Stick around and see if I’m ready to swap my trusty FDM for the shiny, high-res future.
