How strong is the fan that you are using with this setup? I've been thinking of doing one, but I wonder about forced off gassing of the resin and what that might do to prints. That leads me to the fact that a homemade magnehelic gauge isn't actually difficult to make, and of course just how much am I over thinking this. Lol

@evanlane1690 Год назад

Tip for using hole saws on thin plastic: start it in the forward direction until the hole saw gets to the plastic. Reverse the drill and run it backwards while pressing gently. The saw will scrape away the plastic instead of catching and cracking. It works really well.

@michaelsorensen7567 Год назад

An alternative that may also help with VOC leftovers is houseplants. NASA did a study to try and see how many plants it would take to "recycle" closed habitat air, and one of the best results was the peace lily, which also does well in poor lighting and you can't overwater it so it's easy to care for. You'd have to have an INSANE number of them to fully filter, but if you vent most of it a single plant can clean up the rest passively.

@janish7784 Год назад

Think about adding an inline filter. This will help reduce any stray fumes and catch paint particles. You can find them cheap online; Cooker extraction fans, aquariums, respirators, and air purifiers are some of the ones I’ve used. Or make your own with soft toy stuffing and activated carbon pellets, which is what I use now. Even if venting outside it’s still a good idea to reduce particles and voc.

@yarrula 2 часа назад

I've built a full enclosure that holds both the printer and the wash station for resin printing, pretty much a fumehood out of a science lab. Very similar idea, except that I don't have to swap the hoses between the printer and somewhere else. The enclosure can be fully sealed so the fan only has to run at minimal speeds when I'm not actively processing something. I live in Canada, and it's in my basement, so cooler temperatures are a thing. But since the air isn't coming directly from inside the printer itself, I haven't had issues with things getting too cold. I also use it as an airbrush booth now. I've put a cheap furnace filter over the inlet to catch the paint droplets when spraying. It gets very dirty, so for long term fan health, I recommend adding a filter for use with paint.

@Bananananamann Год назад

Very cool video. For the problem with the "Cold weather during printing": Just don't ventilate during printing. You may even add a simple flap valve, which is heavy enough to not allow passive air exchange during printing. After the print is done, start the fan and let it run for several seconds and all the fumes should be gone.

@Dianaranda123 Год назад

Except that the cover itself is not air tight. So that fumes dont stay inside of it, and still come out during the printing. So that is not advisable, what he Could do is to add a pre filter aswell as one of those light dim switches as to not have the fan blow full power.

@cyprusmiraque Год назад

He could also run a heater in the area near the printers

@Konradius001 Год назад

The easy solution for temperature control would be to keep the ventilation closed during printing, and then connect the ventilation first when the print is done. I'm doing research before buying a resin printer with exactly this concern. And from what I have read and seen on youtube the critical moments to have ventilation is when opening the printer and when washing/curing the print. Would love to hear more about this and whether I am missing something.

@antongunther3977 Год назад

good alt for people that dont want to bust out the powertools and are okay with paying more is to get a grow tent. They are for growing plants indoors, but you can use them for 3d printers. They have ventilation holes built in and everything. With an inline fan going it will create negative pressure in the enclosure. The advantage to this is: less UV light risk since you have an extra layer of material around the printer. The fan is not pulling fumes directly out of the 3d printer, but around it. If you get a large enough grow tent you might have enough space to do all your post processing inside it (and it will act as a fume hood) You dont have to worry about spills as much since it will all be contained in the tent.

Looks like I have a project for this weekend.

Maybe a good idea to add a Pre filter before the fan, so as to catch whatever big particles from paint etc and not get the fan damaged. Aswell as a Dimmer switch, so you can regulate the speed of the fan, it doesnt need to run 100% full power, 50% ish or so is more then sufficient to suck away all the fumes.

@EmilyLoebl 11 месяцев назад

I've been doing something similar for the last couple of years! Even down to the custom window mount made with wood. I did end up varnishing it to help with the weather, and used a dryer vent and screening to keep out bugs. My resin printer and wash n cure is inside and Ikea cabinet and use an oven hood over it for lighting and a basic fan that was good. I then added a Tee above it, and a stronger fan to pull the fumes. So I can both use the printer and my airbrush setup at the same time. Glad to see more people thinking about this 🙂

@imark7777777 Год назад

Cool intro. Maybe put a filter on the in-line that would both protect the fan from paint and catch some of the compounds that get blown out. A variable speed a.k.a. dimmer might be useful in controlling airflow and excessive cooling.

@OnceinaSixSide Год назад

@ScytheNoire Год назад

Good design on the magnetic clamps. Others have done similar venting designs for both 3D printing and paint booths. Paint booth venting will be fine, just use a furnace filter in the booth to stop particles getting into the inline fan. Since I don't have a window currently to vent out of in the place where my equipment is, I built an enclosure to keep everything isolated, and put a air purifier with carbon filtering in it. Keeps the printers warm, like they like it in my cold climate, and the air isolated from the rest of the room.

@OnceinaSixSide Год назад

Great idea! Those aren't too pricey either which is awesome.

@Mre942 26 дней назад

In a painting box you have a thin filter before the fan , after years of painting there will build up a small layer of paint on the filter.

@michalsterling 6 месяцев назад

Cool idea. If and when you do a paint booth, add a disposable air filter at the inlet before the hose connection and most larger paint particles will collect on it before hitting the fan.

@tonyennis1787 Год назад

Regarding the lack of air-tightness. You want the fitting to be airtight, as air is more easily sucked in there. But you will need a way for air to enter the system. Like at the bottom of the enclosure.

@Gromic2k 11 месяцев назад

The fitting does not need to be airtight as long as there is enough pressure from the pump to compensate it

@kxjx 3 месяца назад

I think it would be easy to make it airtight by gluing a thin rubber ring e.g. one used for 80mm semi-rigid radial ducting

@andredbraxton Год назад

This is an awesome idea! I'll be doing a similar setup but adding a ventilation heat exchanger inline to reduce any issues with cold air getting to the print space. They're not cheap to buy new, but not stupidly expensive when you find a deal on a used one.

@lanzer22 Год назад

I actually use the same fan setup for my 3D prints and air brushing. (though I'm using the Harbor Freight 8" ventilator) For airbrushing I use a 64 quart transparent storage bin, and place a cheap household air filter diagonally inside the storage bin. The exhaust cutout is on the bottom of the bin, and then the bin is placed sideways with the air filter tiling up and towards you. The bigger your air filter, the less airflow you're blocking, and be sure to use the cheap filters that have the least air resistance. You can then place LED strip lights around the storage bin to provide diffused light when you position your model near the exhaust.

@martinthompson2584 Год назад

It would be interesting to stick a VOC monitor in your work room and see the before and after. My solution (not yet implemented) is a carbon filter (like the hydroponics guys use) with an inline fan. That way I can maintain the heat in the room in winter. But I'll see how that goes once all the bits arrive.

@peterpan4038 Год назад

Activated carbon filters are a popular method, but as far as safety is concerned they are closer to a placebo than actual solution. Because they are fantastic at keeping the smell away, but aren't much of a help against the problematic fumes. This can actually make things worse. Because you will feel safer (because the VOC smell won't be there), and end up printing even more in badly ventilated rooms. => A good VOC monitor is indeed part of any decent system. Because there are nasties we won't notice ourselves.

@martinthompson2584 Год назад

I've since put a VOC monitor in my workspace. It's quite interesting. The levels barely rise with the printer going, but goes nuts when cleaning stuff with IPA. Makes sense I suppose. There also seems to be a daily fluctuation - perhaps when we cook food in the evening?

To filter the paint particles Barbatos Rex (here on YT) swears by the blue and white aquarium filter material and you can often buy it cheap in rolls. Also, I'd be inclined to go with a slower, less aggressive fan so that it it's enough to keep the air flow going in the right direction but not so much as to make a cold draught.

@johno7370 Год назад

If your using an airbrush - the paint particle will build up on the fan blades so you need to add a washable or replaceable filter on the hood (that will need to be much close to the airbrush when spraying to be effective as well) Interesting idea - what about a 3d printable duct that the lids sits on that creates the holes required for removing the resin smell instead of cutting a hole in the printer cover? Personally I will be building a system of the above that can be easily expanded to however many resin printers I wind up getting.

The only real issue is instead of ventilation straight outside it needs a filter box with some basic carbon like seen in a fish tank filter for the voc. Also, generally the only people who say "as an engineer" are bad engineers in practice. So avoid doing that because it has no merit in the real world.

They are very rubost, often include charcoal filtering (not necessary if exhausting outdoors), lighting, and usually easy mounting to the top of a cabinet.

Just 'cos you cant smell it doesnt mean its not there. I use an inline fan in my DIY spray booth and the filter in the back of the box traps 90% of the paint particles, the rest get stuck to the ducting way before it hits the fan. My printer is in a big cardboard box which is vented into the outlet of the spray booth ducting after the inline fan using a couple of old PC case fans. I guessed I didnt need a huge airflow to vent the fumes. This helps reduce the temp drop (UK Winters are cold) in my loft space. I can keep my printer enclosure / cardboard box ant a nice warm 25 degrees while my hobby room/studio (loft) is bloody freezing at 6 degrees.

Oh man.... when you slapped the hose on the hood for the first time and it fell off, I damn near fell outta my chair laughing 🤣 I have almost the same issue, I have a couple FDM printers in this odd closet thing (it's not floor level, it's raised up to around waist level 🤷‍♂) we have in our bedroom, but also wanted to do some parts in resin. I planned to use my bedroom bathroom's shower area to print/wash, and I would make a hood that vented into the ceiling fan. Problem was that after some inspection, I realize this BS fan really doesn't go anywhere and there is a very small slot in the top. I've worked around a lot of harsh chemicals in manufacturing, but this stuff I have at least, gives me headaches and a sore throat, so this idea here might actually work and I can dust off the $1200 I spent and used 3x. Wife might not like the hose running through the bedroom and out the window on the opposite side... but then again, she has 6 aquariums in the same room so yea..

These are some better than pro production videos my friend. Amazing!

Glad you think so!

This is a cool design, but personally I know that I would be upgrading my 3D printer every 2 years or so, and it just makes more sense to vent the enclosure of the printer than the printer itself. There won't be a venting tube to handle every time you open the printer, and an enclosure can house multiple printers. An enclosure will also continue venting when the printer is open, keeping fumes to a minimum. Just my 2 cents (and how I built my system)

@KameradArktis Год назад

also a way to skip making all the attachment points is use a grow tent and run printers in it

@OnceinaSixSide Год назад

Very true, those come with a hose fitting already I'm assuming. Definitely a good option if you've got the space for one!

@sooutofhere Год назад

Very good design. I am working on a similar solution for my nerd cave. Especially for the washing station. I am a bit concerned that the IPA fumes may get ignited in a spark of the inline ventilator. It is really unlikely but it could happen I think. Still have to think about that one 😊

@jeroenieman1 Год назад

Maybe a stupid question, but I'm gonna make my own soon. Wouldn't it be more effective and easy to add the filtration system in the enclosure. This way, it would re-filter just that air the whole time without creating a negative pressure or filter external air (which might make the filter last shorter). Maybe I'm missing something 😊

@OnceinaSixSide Год назад

Elegoo actually include little self contained carbon filters that go inside the printer enclosure and they work really well in my experience, so if you have one or two of those then I reckon you don't need to bother with this kind of vent :)

@@OnceinaSixSide im sure if you build a enclosure around your printers, and vent that out, you'll have lesss issues with failed prints and temp drops, as you can add a small heater into that enclosure to just slightly keep temps above too cold, and it would look great too if you put some albow greeese into the crafting of the enclosure., then after a finished print, u take lid off close enclosure again and let it vent out for 3/5min more to get the rest of the fumes out from inside the lid. before handling the stuff, cause the biggest inhaler are when you open the lid no matter what its the most concentrated. that moment and a few mins after.

7:28 yeah, I thought that was not strong enough to hold it. But great overall project. Unfortunatelly my windows is not sliding but opening and I can not use this solution.

@wilson2583 Год назад

White the fan is on, the air wont go outside, because the outside pressure ir higher, the outside air would enter instead

This looks awesome! Thank you for sharing this.

This is brilliant! Thank you for sharing. I'm gonna print this and I will be spending some time learning Fusion360 now for another project. Subscribed!
