Resin is mildly toxic and an allergen.
Use glasses, gloves and only touch things inside the cabinet as soon as you have started working.


Wash your hands after you have removed the gloves. only Use soap and water, never use IPA or acetone to wash your skin since it does remove most of the resin it helps the rest of it penetrating deeper.

What is SLA-printing

Risks and security precautions

  • Resin is mildly toxic and an allergen.
  • Use glasses, nitril gloves and only touch things inside the cabinet as soon as you have started working.
  • Wash your hands after you have removed the gloves. only Use soap and water, never use IPA or acetone to wash your skin since it does remove most of the resin it helps the rest of it penetrating deeper.
  • Lift bottles with your hand over the label

Slicing your files

Slicers and slicer settings.

AnyCubic slicer is basically a customized and slightly outdated version of CituBox, better to get the newest version from:
