Please, use adequate ventilation (with a heat exchanger if you need to keep A/C in the room) if you’re going to be resin printing inside. I don’t want to see all of you guys get cancer from this hobby.

    He mentions VOCs within the resin, just because you can’t wrap your head around why inhaling “volatile organic compounds” can be bad for you, does not mean it’s wrong. Take proper precautions to ventilate the area while printing resin, please.

      You know volatile just means it readily evaporates, right?

      Alcohol is a volatile organic compound.

      Nothing about the term ‘volatile organic compound’ means dangerous. You need more information.
