Hi everyone. I’m looking into my first 3D printer and would like a resin one for the great detail it can produce. I’m looking for companies that make respected machines that aren’t out of China. I know of Prusa but their resin printer is incredibly expensive for me and a beginner.
As a second note, I would love to support a USA company as a first choice if available and like the software and firmware to be open source. I’m happy to have found PrusaSlicer with UVtools so there’s one less Chinese/semi proprietary/subscription based software.
I just did a brief look at Epax and it looks like something I might be very interested in. The full price E10 8k is potentially a doable price point but they also sell a refurbished E10 8k for a great price. They are also supported on UVtools. I just have to do a little more research but they look promising.
