Silicone Scraper

Silicone scapers work great to gently mix resin in the vat and more importantly check for any failures before printing your next file!

Note: The scraper must be silicone. Other materials can scratch and damage your release film.

Filter funnel

Filter Funnel

A filter funnel is used when pouring resin from the vat back into the bottle. It catches small, cured bits of resin that if left in the resin, could puncture the release film. Stainless steel and disposable options are available.

Hobby Knife

A hobby knife is useful for removing supports, especially if they have been partially fused to your model. Use it with caution! The sharp blade can easily remove too much material or cause injury if mishandled.

Flush Cutters
