This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

So liable to close down my windpipe so tight I almost suffocate?

That happened to me once when we had a hardwood floor and were trying to re-varnish it ourselves, I almost died.

Some people are quite sensitive to different chemical fumes. I don't know if this is the same, but I certainly would be very cautious if you have a sensitivity. Otherwise I don't know how you would react and there are different resins for different uses. Some people use full on chemical fume masks, I occassonaly get some on my hands and just wash it off.

Thanks for the info, I think I'll have to pass on the joys of 3D printing. (Says he as if he had the money to even dream of buying one anyway)  ;D

Here is why this forum tends to be so stupid. Many people here think Joe Biden is "The Left", when he is actually Far Right and every US republican is just an idiot.

That's what set me for FDM if I do get one in a couple years. Cleaning a bathroom with Scrubbing Bubbles gives me a headache for a half hour - so I can only imagine what resin stink would do.

I was just wondering if they were toxic-toxic - like carcinogenic or something. As I live in TX, being "too cold" won't be an issue for me unless it's the dead of winter, but even then I have a crafting room I'd likely put this machine in.

Hows the odor? Will it permanently stink up a room?

Or is this strictly a garage thing?

I ran my Sonic Mighty in my spare bedroom. I have two air purifiers that I run constantly when printing and it really cuts down on the fumes. There are also some really nice smaller filters you can put right in the printer.

The fumes aren't as bad as you might think, and different resins can be better than others. Elegoo Standard Grey has a really faint smell.

The IPA can get a bit strong for me sometimes, but I just wear a mask that filters it down some.

The important part is to have a good place to work with the model once it comes off the printer. Removing supports, cleaning in IPA and then curing.
