Resin 3D printing is more restrictive and more expensive than FDM 3D printing. At least that's what I thought until Geeetech offered me the chance to try out their low-cost resin printer: the Alkaid, for €99! That's pretty cheap for a resin 3D printer...
On paper, this printer holds its own against my old Anycubic Photon.
Having thoroughly tested this printer and found its limitations, I can now give you my opinion on this machine and, with the help of @MorgensternPrinting , help you decide whether this 3D printer is right for you.
Even though this video is not sponsored, I'm always keen to remain as objective as possible in my tests, so I'm putting my personal feelings and prejudices to one side!
