I've watched dozens of videos...dozens!...but NO ONE has gone into the amount of detail, speaking plain english as you have. I ordered a Mars 4 Max this morning and thank you for the time you put into this!

Also ordered a Mars 4 Max , largely after the full explanation I heard here.
This was the best video I've seen if you want to get a full introduction to 3d resin printing. Thanks guys!
Great video. Excellent amount of detail delivered without video becoming too long.
First time I watched a resin printer vid that explains it so well! Bravo!

Cool, thanks
Nice! Received the Mars 4 as a Christmas gift and your video straighten out a lot of questions I was asking myself! Thank you and Shalom!
Great intro to the resin printing process. And no annoying cheesy music - yay!
Wonderful, well done, explanatory review! :)) Thank you very much. I am using Mars 4 Max, and you helped me a lot.
This is really great, just the information I was looking for. You got me started in FDM printing a few years ago. Many thanks!
Hi there! I just got my first 3D printer from Bambu Lab and I'm learning the basics etc. Also, it's very interesting to learn about resin 3D printing. Your content is pleasent to watch and I'm learning a lot with various topics around the 3D printing.
Thanks for this video, have so much information as i need to have pretty clear how my 3D printer will work, a lot of very useful explanations , thanks again.
This tutorial is great! Thanks for doing this!
Amazing video. Would be nice next time to show the wash and cure process however I was hoping to see more of that.
So many information. thanks.
Awesome video

Thank you for the kind comment.
As always Thank you great over view
Excellent. How do you design these ring to plaster cast them? Could you teach us the basics? Thank you
No odor does not mean that the air is safe
One thing I'm a bit confused about in regards to the new 4K printers is how the actual print resolution is compared to the 2K printers with a smaller print area. I'm betting most people look at 4K and say it's finer definition, but is it really when you consider the print area of a 4K printer is often a lot bigger than the 2K models? I have a Creality Halot One, that can print a layer height of .01 - .0t5, which seems pretty good. The LCD screen resolution on the Halot One is 1620x2560 with a print are of 127x160mm. A 4K printer with a small print area, and small Z steps would result in a much more details print, but I'm not sure about printers with a larger print areas.
what happens when it goes up and down with it not hitting the resin? I am new to this. I have a DLP
Thanks!
very interesting ty
Can you run this off an iPad Pro or do you need a PC?
That WD-40 stuff doesn’t work. The FEP is already that…. Lol
You should definitely add an activated carbon filter to that exhaust fan. Blowing all that stuff *you* don't want in your house (which I absolutely understand) unfiltered into the environment isn't very nice to say the least.

Ok, you convinced me, it's not for me.
In This WHOLE ENTIRE TUTORIAL YOU Never Ever Showed This ELEGOO MARS 4 OERATING....IN ACTION!!!......What A WASTE of 36 MINUTES & 46 SECONDS!!!
Wow, thanks for sharing your knowledge, it is very well explained. I would really like to find a complete course with a project to work on so I can learn on the go, apart from knowing how to play the configurations well. I know that this requires specific software. I see that the one you mention is quite good, however it exceeds the license costs at least for me (daily use for hobby).
