Don't buy one except for specialist purposes.
I'm very careful with the resin protocol, it's toxic crap, and it's so costly, even when you hollow the models and do your drain-holes it still costs more per gramme in comparison to FDM. Now and then you get a print fail, and a resin fail is far more costly than an FDM fail.
You have to use at least one pair of Nitrile gloves with each print, because the workflow is Print, Clean, Remove supports, Cure. After 15mins of exposure even Nitrile melts.
You can recycle your IPA so that's all good.
On average i've seen print times that are 4x faster than FDM (standard 3D Printers), i've seen up to 6 times faster on some models.
One big advantage is that 2 models take roughly the same time as one model to print on resin, since it's done layer by layer.
Models feel more solid and can now use inlay.
I am sweating my arse off just sitting here typing so i will now get naked, but not type whilst in that state. It would seem weirdly unfaithful or something.
