A 10 inch model in resin that took a FDM printer 8 days to print is gonna take a long time to fully cure after the print, FWIW.


For that size you should maybe not be printing with a 0.4mm nozzle and at 0.2mm layer heights. Ya know? Maybe you should go up to 0.6 and 0.4mm layer heights. Also maybe you might want to tune your printer for better printing speeds and also shell out your object in your modeling software or command less infill in your slicer or something.


Just saying a faster printing method is not always the way out of learning a better way of how to properly 3d print. If only just because light curable resin costs more than the filaments. So in the long run this move might just make playing here more expensive for you.


Why not play with your FDM printer and slicer and see what you can do to shave down the print time? Slice it at 0.3mm layer heights. drop the infill down below 10% and play with other settings to make sure you still have a strong print. Maybe drop the amount of top and bottom solid infilll layers but keep the sides to 3. And slice it a mess of times before you ever print anything.


Maybe tune your FDM printer real quick. There are a simple but effective series of calibration steps we can take to first find out how fast our extruder can spit out the filament and then how fast our robots can actually lay down that filament. There are a mess of tutorials on how to tune your printer and get better speed and function out of it.

Resin printers are cool. And you should want to explore that. But usually when we want to move to a resin printer it is because of print quality. With the tradeoff being strength. 8 day print time for 10 inches of height really sounds like you do not have a lot of time spent with actually calibrating your printer or the slicer you are using. Just because of this one sentence from you I really think you would get so much more out of just spending time with your printer's firmware and also your slicer settings.
