If there is something you want to see printed, leave a link to it in the comments and I'll print it when feasible and post a timelapse.

This is a 2:3 scale print of an AR-15 Lower Receiver. Printed in Fun to Do, Deep Black, Standard Blend. It was sliced with Creation Workshop and printed on my Draken 3D printer using Creation Workshop Host. The front of the model detached from the supports and caused the front of the model to be deformed. Still a good timelapse showing a large object getting pulled out of a vat of resin 1/4 inch deep.

The hype around 3D printed firearms has died down and Cody Wilson is out of the media spotlight. But much like how things went before anyone ever heard of Cody Wilson, defense distributed, ghost gunner or the Liberator people were still making their own guns. This is in that spirit but on a 2:3 scale. Eventually I will likely print an AR-15 lower reciever full scale but at that point it is considered a firearm by the ATF and I'm not willing to deal with keeping track of that print right now.

DLP resin 3D printers like this work by using an HD projector installed under the resin tank to cure a very thin layer of resin. The initial layers become stuck to the build plate and the subsequent layers to the part. By using hundreds or thousands of layers the final part is printed. This video shows the hours it took to cure over a thousand layers in just a couple of minutes. I used a Go Pro Hero4 silver to shoot this video using the time lapse feature. Enjoy!
