DIY UV Resin

[Deadbot1]

I've used the SolarRez ZeroVOC resin in fiberglass work. I think it would be a better Resin in most cases...
http://solarez.com/products/zerovoc-epoxy-resin/ $97 a gallon.

http://solarez.com/products/solarez-...cosity-gallon/ They have a resin made just for 3D printing, but much more expensive...$254 a gallon.

The ZeroVOC would require heating to use, as it is like honey at room temp. In talking with the techs there during some prototyping, they mention that heating it to 100 degrees F makes it thin to almost water viscosity. Never had a chance to play with it much. I can tell you that the ZeroVOC cures incredibly fast in sunlight.

Hi, any news on the resin project?
I'm waiting my printer and already looking for cheaper alternatives for the resin...

I haven't done anything with it yet. Still waiting with everyone else. My plan is to get the printer working with standard resin first then get into making custom resins. Part of my motivation is I think I see a way of having RGB colored prints with Peachy but I need the resin prices and accessibility to come down a little first. Of course I can't confirm anything though until I've actually used it.
