The Hidden Dangers of 3D Printing

Video Description

3D Printing has a lot more dangers than people realize. This video goes in depth about health and safety for Resin & FDM 3D printing. What the common dangers are (VOCs, UFPs, Resin, UV exposure) and how to avoid those risks so you can safely print miniatures to use for Warhammer 40k, Dungeons and Dragons, and Anime Figures. --[ Subscribe to Icypie ]-- https://www.youtube.com/@Icypie-Chats?sub_confirmation=1 If you have any other safety tips or knowledge about 3D printing safety. PLEASE comment, Its good to learn about this information together and I don’t know everything either.
