We noticed here at the library, many 3D print projects were small figurines, so we decided to get a resin 3D printer to get better detail in these types of prints.

(Above) This is the resin printer vat that holds the photosensitive resin used in the printing process.

(Below)The grey print is done in the resin printer and the green is from the Makerbot 3D printer. Compare the smoother and higher detail in the grey print especially in the ball and back of the Santa hat. Splicing and supports are a bit trickier in the resin printer which led to the damage on the back of the grey print. This was the first print done on the printer outside of the included preloaded practice print.
