Before my livestream coming soon." If you’re new here... this is not your usual *resin printer review* If you're into high-precision resin 3D printing, miniature modelling, or just watching someone try to explain a printer that actively resists being explained… this one’s for you. If you're looking at the *best resin 3D printer for miniatures* in 2025, the RS Turbo might already be on your radar — or maybe you wrote it off. From slicing weirdness to the most divisive feature in desktop SLA printing (hello, proprietary resin!), this video covers what the spec sheet doesn’t and what the brand probably wishes I hadn’t figured out. This isn’t your average YouTube *resin printer review* Not sure whether the RS Turbo is for you? Totally fair. But if you’re into: → Smart, software-led 3D printing → Resin systems that break their own rules → Print quality that punches above its K-count → Workflows that are either clever or cursed …it’s worth a closer look. I'm not here to convince anyone — just breaking down what this printer actually does, and why it's got people talking (again).

here we go again another Heyars review
0:02
which means another guaranteed storm in
0:04
the comments shill sellout snake and a
0:07
lot worse i get it heygears is a brand
0:09
that it's popular to hate i think some
0:11
people genuinely seem to enjoy being
0:14
annoyed so this time I'm being blunt
0:16
upfront i'm not leaving it till later in
0:18
the video the thumbnail literally says
0:20
"Do not buy this printer." Because if
0:22
proprietary resin or companies that all
0:25
but enforce proprietary resin is your
0:27
instant deal breaker Yeah that's fair
0:30
this machine probably isn't for you
0:32
probably but if that's because you're
0:34
thinking "I'm not letting a company tell
0:36
me what resin I can use." Well hang on
0:39
it's not as locked down as most people
0:40
think and trust me this isn't a sermon
0:43
i'm just going to walk you through what
0:44
makes this printer weird and why that
0:47
weirdness might actually be exactly what
0:49
we need so come for the outrage but stay
0:52
for the bit where I might accidentally
0:54
make a solid argument for the printer
0:56
that everyone loves to hate i promise
0:58
though by the end everyone's going to
1:00
find something to be annoyed about even
1:02
the fans hi I'm Ross and this is Fauxham
1:05
Hammer Videos so this is the RS Turbo
1:08
sounds fast right honestly it sounds
1:10
like a souped-ups hatchback tearing
1:12
through a Tesco car park with a boot
1:14
full of subwoofers and questionable
1:16
stickers so yeah obviously I decided to
1:18
slap on some Nars Sparkco and other
1:20
popular car brand decals just to set the
1:23
proper scene i just had to but in lie of
1:25
these on the outside the printer looks
1:28
identical to the older RS printer so
1:30
you're probably wondering what's
1:31
actually changed well there's the screen
1:33
and that's it that's literally it no new
1:37
shell no new internal hardware no webcam
1:40
that we all wanted just a faster curing
1:43
longerlasting screen so this isn't a
1:45
revolution it's not really even a new
1:47
printer no matter how much Heygears have
1:49
hyped it up it's an RS1.1 a side grade
1:53
at best but that one change yeah it
1:56
actually makes the printer 20 to 40%
1:58
faster and I've tested it with a variety
2:00
of tall and short prints now if you've
2:02
already got an older RS especially
2:05
recently you're probably a bit pissed
2:07
off but you'll be happy to know that you
2:09
can buy the new screen as an upgrade
2:11
honestly though I'd just hold off until
2:12
your current one needs replacing but at
2:14
least swapping screens on these printers
2:17
is dead simple now before we go deeper
2:19
into the hardware we need to cover the
2:21
thing that I tried to avoid a bit in my
2:23
last video cuz I don't want to get
2:24
bogged down in printer politics but you
2:27
simply can't do a Heygears review
2:29
without talking about printer politics
2:31
so let's address the elephant in the
2:33
comments section proprietary resin i've
2:35
covered it before i've I've done three
2:37
four five Heyars videos now and I've
2:40
said it every single time but I've got
2:42
to be conscious that yes every video
2:44
people watch could be their first one of
2:46
mine so here it is yes HGAs wants you to
2:50
use their resin the whole system is
2:52
built around it and arguably that's
2:54
where most of the value of this printer
2:57
comes in that's how they deliver such
3:00
insane results reliable accurate easy it
3:03
works seriously it works really well i
3:05
don't think anyone's arguing that but
3:07
the bit I want to point out is you're
3:09
not locked in not as much as you might
3:11
think you can just pour your own resin
3:13
in loads of people do check out Greedy
3:16
3D scroll the Here's Facebook group
3:18
watch Dennis Wang's video he actually
3:20
breaks down the exposure profiles and
3:22
light intensities and shows what does
3:24
what so if you're new you might be
3:26
wondering what's everyone going on about
3:28
how it's locked down well the thing you
3:31
can't do is you can't change exposure
3:33
settings manually but you can just run
3:35
normal exposure test files against the
3:37
growing list of Hegear's profiles in the
3:40
materials library to find the best
3:42
result that's the difference it's not as
3:44
open as other printers far from it but
3:46
it's also nowhere near as locked down as
3:49
many people think and report and mass
3:52
now if you do want my full opinion on
3:54
the politics of proprietary resin and
3:56
the impact it makes and all of those
3:59
things and those nuances just go and
4:01
watch the state of plays video cuz I'll
4:03
just say what he said right moving on to
4:06
the hardware the RS Turbo is built like
4:09
a tank premium plastic shell reinforced
4:11
where it counts the lid holds wherever
4:13
you put it and mechanical parts actually
4:15
feel deliberately placed in here it's
4:18
got three adjustable feet and one static
4:19
one that's actually intentional it helps
4:22
with manual leveling but yeah every time
4:24
this pops up in Facebook we reset the
4:26
clock at least now you know it comes
4:28
with built-in Wi-Fi and stupidly no
4:30
Ethernet and there's a USB port and SD
4:32
card slot on the side the latter is
4:34
intended for expandable storage but
4:36
despite Hegars telling me that this
4:38
would come to the RS so I expected by
4:40
the point that was released we're still
4:42
waiting for it now they've delivered the
4:44
RS Turbo now the ports including the
4:46
power socket sticking out the side isn't
4:48
ideal but the thing that really winds me
4:50
up is the settings menu on the UI now
4:53
the UI is fantastic it's gorgeous it's
4:55
big everything's laid out pretty well
4:58
except for this bloody settings menu why
5:01
am I seeing Wi-Fi setup cloud login
5:03
system language and the initial setup
5:05
wizard right at the top when I go into
5:07
the settings menu i'll never touch these
5:09
again after first boot meanwhile the
5:12
stuff I actually use regularly platform
5:15
control tank cleaning firmware updates
5:17
disc cleanup they're randomly buried
5:20
throughout the settings list it's not
5:22
even alphabetical there's no sensible
5:24
logic here at all honestly since they've
5:27
got no intention of budging on the resin
5:29
thing can we start focus more
5:31
complaining about DAFF stuff like this
5:33
instead because then they might actually
5:35
change it i mentioned this in my last RS
5:37
review and Fears at this point should
5:39
feel a little embarrassed that this sort
5:41
of thing isn't sorted already especially
5:43
when they've got the best most
5:44
userfriendly printer and they have but
5:46
we'll we'll come on to that now the
5:48
build plate this is stainless steel not
5:50
the cheap aluminium you get on most
5:51
machines it's got a great texture solid
5:54
compression latch to mount it onto the
5:55
arm but the top is flat so resin pulls
5:58
you'll either be scraping it off every
6:00
time you print or risking spills to help
6:02
mitigate this you can 3D print a drip
6:04
caddy and or buy their plastic tray and
6:07
yeah that plastic tray is better and
6:09
thicker than others but it's a plastic
6:11
tray so it's still the Z-axis
6:13
mechanism is rock solid it's got dual
6:15
linear rails and a ball screw it's stiff
6:17
it's stable it's great now the VAT comes
6:20
with a clear I'd assume PFA release film
6:22
but there's new films coming out and
6:24
they're all coming up with different
6:25
names but it's got a crystal clear film
6:28
it also holds 900 ml of resin and if
6:30
you're using Heygears bottles they just
6:32
flip upside down and autofill the tank
6:35
from the back corner no pump just
6:38
gravity it's simple great engineering
6:40
and it works if you prefer your own
6:42
resin no problem you can just pour it
6:44
into the bat manually or refill one of
6:46
these bottles once it's empty to keep
6:48
the auto top up feature now when it
6:50
comes to print heating it's not built in
6:52
by default if you want a heated vat
6:54
you'll need to buy the upgraded tank
6:56
separately and that comes with its own
6:58
controller and an extra power brick
7:00
honestly it feels like a bit of a step
7:02
backwards from the Reflex where heating
7:04
was cleanly integrated out of the box
7:06
and then there's the PRM add-on or
7:08
pulsing release module now you might
7:10
think that you need this in order to use
7:12
the heated vat you you don't you can buy
7:14
the heated vat without this and what
7:16
this is is basically an air compressor
7:18
which reduces suction when layers peel
7:21
so this lets you use smaller support
7:23
contact points and it works well it
7:25
really does have an impact on the
7:27
contact points and makes them peel away
7:30
cleaner with less damage to your model
7:32
but it's loud so I only ever used it on
7:34
the Reflex for that video i've never
7:36
used it on either of my RS machines if
7:39
you must have the absolute ultimate in
7:41
auto supports and you can deal with a
7:43
compressor constantly running while it
7:45
prints and that's going to be several
7:47
hours then yeah definitely pick this up
7:49
but I got mine for free and I haven't
7:51
used it and I've got no desire to get
7:53
another one speaking of accessories we
7:55
can cover this now they've also got a
7:57
wash and cure station the cure station
7:59
is amazing and you can actually remotely
8:01
send cure settings from the slicer to
8:03
the cure station so that it knows
8:05
exactly what's going in it and can
8:07
determine how long it's going to cure
8:09
for and at what temperature it's going
8:10
to heat to in order to cure that
8:12
material but it's bloody expensive more
8:14
expensive than most hobby printers the
8:17
wash station is stupid who thought it
8:20
would be a good idea to smash all of my
8:21
delicate resin models together when
8:23
cleaning them going back to the tank
8:25
what bugs me most though is if you're
8:27
paying this much you shouldn't need to
8:29
buy two vats to get the heating
8:31
functionality hagars should at least at
8:33
the very least offer the heated VAT as a
8:36
pre-installed option when you buy the RS
8:38
or RS Turbo at checkout simple and
8:41
finally on the hardware I want to talk
8:43
about this because I think they're
8:44
lacking there's still no sign of any
8:46
kind of monitoring camera despite the
8:48
phone having its own app there is a
8:51
thread mount in the back corner so you
8:52
can mount your own camera like a GoPro
8:55
they say yeah sure but I've never seen
8:57
anyone actually do this and it's
8:58
controlled by a third-party app if you
9:00
do that and honestly hey Gears people
9:03
aren't asking for GoPro hacks they want
9:05
proper built-in live monitoring and auto
9:08
time-lapse generation if you're in the
9:10
consumer space then you need to be aware
9:12
that's just the standard now so crack on
9:14
and make one please so there you go i
9:17
think that's the review that people want
9:19
me to do people want me to on
9:22
Heygears but the thing is genuinely
9:24
despite everything I've critiqued so far
9:27
every printer has its issues you've kind
9:29
of got to look at buying a printer
9:30
nowadays by accepting the issues you can
9:33
put up with more than the features they
9:35
have and when I look at the Heygears
9:37
machines against everything else yes
9:39
I've got the luxury of accepting them
9:41
for free in exchange for a review
9:44
heygears have no say over what I put
9:47
into this video and in my previous RS
9:50
video where some people out there got
9:52
paid to make a promotion I actually
9:54
refused payment from them because I
9:56
didn't want to feel in any way beholden
9:58
to the company or them having any level
10:01
of control over what I say but
10:03
considering I still got the for it
10:05
anyway I may as well have taken the
10:07
payout at this point now you've seen the
10:09
critique let me be straight with you i
10:12
still use my Hey Gears reflex that in
10:14
fact my Reflex my RS and now the RS
10:17
Turbo are the only resin printers I
10:19
actually use and if I had to start from
10:21
scratch today and pick just one printer
10:23
to use it would be this not because it's
10:26
perfect clearly it's not i've just shown
10:28
you there are issues with it but I'd
10:30
pick it because it's already more
10:32
userfriendly than anything else it's
10:33
better built than anything else in the
10:35
consumer space i can easily replace
10:37
screens when I need to and here's the
10:39
other thing it prints more than just
10:41
wellsupported models well every printer
10:44
handles wellsupported files just fine
10:46
including this one as the cones of
10:48
calibration results clearly show but the
10:50
moment supports aren't perfect well
10:52
we're either upping exposure time and
10:54
bloating models resupporting them
10:56
ourselves or just blaming the file and
10:58
not printing it and let's be honest most
11:00
of us don't want to waste our lives
11:02
learning the dark art of support
11:03
placement for me that's where this
11:05
machine changes things hey supports
11:08
don't just work because of where they go
11:10
anyone can grab the slicer add supports
11:12
export the file and print it on another
11:14
machine they work because of how they're
11:17
cured the slicer knows what's model and
11:19
what's support then the printer cures
11:22
each differently giving us cleaner
11:23
brakes and fewer scars this machine
11:26
gives me the confidence to print
11:28
pre-supported poorly supported and
11:30
unsupported models with incredible
11:32
accuracy and accuracy yeah that's
11:35
important especially for multi-art
11:37
models where parts need to fit together
11:39
cleanly and the creator has left very
11:42
small tolerance and since I don't just
11:44
print wells supported minis but a much
11:46
larger variety of things from different
11:49
sources and different qualities of
11:50
source I actually feel far less limited
11:53
in what I can print well with this
11:54
machine than on any other machine
11:56
despite this machine having more limits
11:58
placed on it than any other yeah with
12:01
most machines my goal is good enough
12:04
with this one I'm aiming closer to
12:05
perfection not just hoping for the kind
12:08
of accuracy that usually depends on how
12:10
well we know how to dial in our resin
12:12
beyond simply tweaking exposure time
12:15
that's one of the two main reasons I
12:16
personally choose Heyge Gears printers
12:18
but most importantly it's the only
12:21
printer I've owned that's genuinely
12:23
improved after I got it this is a huge
12:26
part that people miss because we're all
12:28
arguing about proprietary resin we don't
12:31
look beyond it to see the positives you
12:33
see where most in fact all of the
12:35
printers may get a firmware patch or two
12:37
after a release the Reflex and the RS
12:40
they've both improved meaningfully since
12:42
I got them and they'll keep getting
12:43
better the longer I have them because
12:45
they're part of an ever evolving
12:47
platform and the real reason I changed
12:50
my tune on Heygears from my original
12:52
reflex preview which was done before the
12:55
printer even hit the shelves is simple
12:58
it's not some inflated commission i get
13:00
the same cut from Nova 3D and Pio Create
13:02
so go and watch those videos and ask
13:04
yourself if money is swaying my opinion
13:06
if you're still not convinced watch
13:08
Bogman and Elevated Systems RS review
13:10
because I doubt anyone's going to
13:12
question their credibility and they said
13:14
pretty much the same thing I said after
13:16
I put my video out and guys I'm not
13:19
trying to be a dick about this everyone
13:21
is welcome to disagree with me on the
13:23
printer or even the company i genuinely
13:25
welcome contrasting discourse about the
13:27
benefits and pitfalls of these machines
13:30
but after 2 years of building a
13:31
reputation for being honest yeah look I
13:34
need to defend myself because honestly
13:36
comments calling me out like that
13:38
calling me a shill and worse yeah they
13:40
hurt i never pretended to be any more
13:41
than a beta male i'm sensitive and
13:43
delicate so in my defense please ask
13:46
yourself why the would I suddenly have
13:49
sold out on the RS of all things
13:52
especially when I was far more critical
13:54
of the reflex that came before it a
13:56
printer that cost more and therefore
13:59
would have got me a bigger commission
14:01
the truth is there's no conspiracy here
14:03
just a natural journey that's actually
14:05
quite obvious to people who have watched
14:07
all of my Heygears videos because when
14:10
the Reflex launched over a year ago we
14:12
didn't know back then we could use third
14:14
party resin and also back then Hey
14:16
Gear's cheapest bottle was $90 so yeah I
14:19
said balls to that but despite all the
14:21
fears of price gouging since then all
14:24
they've done is released more affordable
14:26
highquality materials too and because I
14:29
had to return to the platform to make
14:31
more videos about more of their printers
14:33
having learned more about resin printing
14:35
technology along the way just through
14:37
what I do what changed first wasn't my
14:41
opinion it was my understanding in
14:44
having to reuse it I started to see what
14:46
made this printer fundamentally
14:47
different the workflow the software how
14:50
it focuses on consistent results and how
14:52
I can ensure them but that brings me to
14:55
the biggest issues with Heygears and the
14:57
issues I think we should actually be
15:00
talking about a lot more because they
15:02
have built this whole different new way
15:04
of resin printing and then just sort of
15:07
left us to guess how to use it let's
15:10
break it down quickly you know let's do
15:12
the thing that Hey should have explained
15:14
literally in any form of documentation
15:16
in fact their documentation should be
15:18
worlds beyond the competition and yet
15:21
it's non non-existent so when you come
15:23
into this slicer you pick your printer
15:25
and resin which among other things tells
15:27
the slicer how tough the supports need
15:28
to be later on then you repair the model
15:32
and no that's not just a token button
15:34
click we'll come back to that next
15:36
orient your model you can do it manually
15:38
you probably should do it manually but
15:39
the slicer does have some useful options
15:41
to automate this based on various
15:43
supporting objectives just don't use
15:46
one-click slice the system has no way of
15:48
knowing a model's face from its ass so
15:50
just like Formlabs told me this button
15:52
is for very basic geometry only next if
15:55
a model's not pre-supported just add
15:58
auto supports you can manually edit them
16:00
by adding or removing support contact
16:02
points but I've never played with this
16:04
too much however the one thing I would
16:06
recommend is if you're printing small
16:08
things like miniatures go into advanced
16:10
settings and turn the contact shape from
16:12
sphere to none this does add a bit of
16:14
risk that some supports might fail but
16:17
I've only ever had this once back on my
16:19
reflex when printing an ogre and all I
16:22
had to do was add one more support
16:23
contact point to a thumb once this is
16:25
done arrange everything out and
16:27
blueprints layouts tools are actually
16:29
brilliant you can do whole plates you
16:31
can do multiple plates you can decide
16:33
what order to arrange things in whether
16:35
it's the order you imported them or the
16:38
volume of the actual model when you use
16:40
Heygear supports you can choose to
16:42
overlap supports and with this I managed
16:44
to get an entire squad of Mesga death
16:46
shell crawlers on a single plate all
16:49
pre-supported and they printed without
16:51
issue i really think it's the multiple
16:53
plate function though that steps this
16:55
beyond the competition this is something
16:57
we've seen come to FDM printers with the
16:59
likes of Bamboo and when you've got big
17:01
projects this is one of the most handy
17:03
things you can have access to once this
17:05
is all done you then go to the slice tab
17:07
two settings I'd recommend for
17:09
miniatures are anti-aliasing turn this
17:11
on and the fuzzing option is basically
17:13
the same as image blur in Chihu box so
17:16
this softens out voxal and layer line
17:18
edges click slice the slicer will do
17:20
this in the background so you can carry
17:21
on working but when it's done you can
17:23
send it directly to the printer via LAN
17:26
or LAN and cloud now that repair step it
17:29
really matters this could be its own
17:31
video but if it's going to be its own
17:32
video it really is one that Hey Gears
17:34
should do so they can explain it
17:35
properly the rest of us are just
17:37
guessing but the thing is most printers
17:39
and slicers just they nuke everything at
17:41
the same intensity so overlapping shells
17:44
which are shapes on the inner surfaces
17:46
of models that we don't see they really
17:49
matter here because hey actually cure
17:52
the shell and internal structure
17:54
differently this is one of the ways it
17:56
can be so accurate with its prints but
17:58
if you've got a model that's got
18:00
intersecting parts or pre-up supports
18:02
buried in the model which is normal and
18:05
very common this can actually then mess
18:07
with the intended cure intensity in the
18:09
wrong place and the whole thing can just
18:11
fall apart repair fixes that but I do
18:14
still wish there was a repair all or
18:16
confirm all button after that initial
18:18
analysis step because clicking through
18:20
each one manually feels like punishment
18:22
for caring about accuracy and then
18:24
there's the new feature that I actually
18:25
thought was completely pointless at
18:27
first but it turns out it's low-key
18:29
genius you can actually remove
18:31
pre-supports from pre-supported files i
18:33
know that sounds backwards right but
18:35
when you have something that's only the
18:37
supported version and those supports are
18:39
trash let's be fair most of us have
18:42
models like that somewhere in our
18:43
collection we can now strip them off and
18:45
fix it properly or at least just
18:48
reexport the clean model for another
18:50
printer but according to Heygears this
18:52
is just the start there are more tools
18:54
coming to expand that functionality it's
18:57
obvious this is where resin printing
18:59
should be going forget proprietary resin
19:01
proprietary resin use your own but this
19:04
kind of smart meaningful advancement
19:07
this is what we should be arguing for
19:09
not wasting energy winging about what we
19:11
hate but pushing harder for the kinds of
19:14
progress we actually want to see so the
19:16
reason I'm backing this printer is just
19:19
that most of us have noticed hardware
19:21
improvements pretty much peaked about 2
19:23
years ago every new machine is just a
19:25
new box with a bigger K number but this
19:28
this printer's 8K screen outperforms
19:30
most 12 14 and even 16K screens and it
19:34
does it through smarter software not
19:36
fancier numbers now whether you're for
19:38
this printer or against it I think this
19:40
next point resonates with all of us the
19:42
real future of resin printing isn't more
19:44
resolution it's better software and
19:47
Heygears are the only company moving
19:49
forward in that area the only company
19:52
and the best part is you don't need to
19:53
keep buying new printers to get the
19:55
improvements the old printers get them
19:58
too but and it's a big butt Hagar's not
20:01
explaining this is where they keep
20:04
shooting themselves in the foot that's
20:06
the core of their biggest problem
20:08
terrible communication if we go back a
20:10
year and they've just come out
20:12
themselves and said "Here's what we're
20:14
doing here's why we know it won't suit
20:16
everyone we're not trying to please
20:17
everyone we just want to build the most
20:19
userfriendly highly accurate printers we
20:22
can and we'd rather focus on refining
20:24
the whole system with things we can
20:26
control rather than letting people poke
20:28
at exposure settings and then we have to
20:30
support all of that confusion with the
20:32
thousands of different materials there
20:34
are on the market you can use your own
20:36
resin sure we're just not going to
20:39
support it if they'd said that and then
20:41
talk about the software advancements
20:43
explain the tech educate us as to why
20:46
your printers are better you know talk
20:48
to us like people just like the CEO did
20:50
when I had a conversation directly with
20:52
him at Form Next but if they'd done that
20:55
we'd probably be praising them not
20:57
piling on this is exactly why Concepts
21:00
3D are the most well-loved and probably
21:02
the most wellrespected resin printer
21:04
company on the market right now and bear
21:06
in mind they haven't even got their
21:07
printer out yet it's because they're
21:10
talking to us they're communicating with
21:12
us and they're actually engaging with us
21:14
and explaining why they're doing what
21:16
they're doing if Heygears did that
21:18
they'd be absolutely dominating this
21:21
market but instead what they're doing
21:23
this businessto business style attitude
21:25
this I just think they've got an obvious
21:29
immaturity in the consumer space because
21:31
of all their industrial arm and history
21:34
of the business that's what they need to
21:36
fix because the attitude of B2B has
21:39
created this backlash and no offense Hey
21:43
Gears I'm the one catching the flack
21:45
just for sticking around and pointing
21:47
out what actually works about your
21:49
machines because there's a lot here to
21:52
love that's what they need to fix that's
21:54
what they need to focus on they need to
21:56
be more open with us tell us what's
21:58
going off and why i know they did a live
22:00
stream with me but again that needs to
22:03
be more regular more frequent and on
22:05
various channels they need a
22:07
communication line with the consumer to
22:10
explain their reasoning in this day and
22:12
age consumers don't buy what companies
22:14
do we buy why they do it this is still
22:17
an awesome printer and I'm still going
22:19
to recommend it but just an aside before
22:22
we get to that Heyge Gears have sent me
22:24
their Path 10 resin the flexible one and
22:26
yeah their naming system is ridiculous
22:29
totally not consumer friendly but here's
22:30
the cheat sheet pa stands for something
22:33
technical if you know drop it in the
22:35
comments but it's the letters after PA
22:37
that matter so PA AF10 or PAF 10 f is
22:40
for flexible parp 10 rp stands for rapid
22:44
prototyping pas 10 who knows maybe
22:47
slightly cheaper the point is it'd be
22:49
nice if they just called them flexible
22:51
rigid tough you know names humans
22:53
understand now PAF 10 is bendy durable
22:56
and surprisingly detailed for a flexible
22:59
resin everyone's praising how durable it
23:01
is but here's the thing that I think
23:03
most resin companies and a lot of people
23:05
miss when it comes to miniature painters
23:08
i don't think we want flexible i think
23:11
we want durable think of injection
23:13
molded plastic because that's what we
23:15
aimed for when we developed War Gamer
23:17
Resin and yes I know if we could have
23:20
made it cheaper we would have but Path
23:22
10 it's durable i just think it's too
23:24
flexible it's so flexible that the
23:27
weight of a paintbrush tip actually
23:29
bends it out of the way of the
23:31
paintbrush does anybody else see the
23:33
problem here if you do there's a
23:35
fantastic solution personally I prefer
23:38
Part 10 it's firmer it prints
23:40
beautifully and when you pull the
23:41
supports off it leaves far fewer scars
23:44
but honestly I just use Pass 10 because
23:46
it's the exact same stuff but in a much
23:49
cheaper bottle now I've been refilling
23:50
the same bottle of Part 10 with past 10
23:52
for nearly a year so I can keep using
23:54
the auto topup feature and one last tip
23:57
use hot water i thought everybody knew
23:59
this but if you warm your prints before
24:02
removing supports they actually peel off
24:04
a lot cleaner and a lot easier just
24:06
don't scold yourself and then go blaming
24:08
me so here's where I land on the RS
24:11
Turbo as I said at the beginning do not
24:13
buy this printer if you want something
24:15
familiar if you want something that
24:17
already works fits your workflow and
24:19
keeps you happy brilliant keep doing
24:21
what works honestly I still recommend
24:23
the Saturn 4 Ultra 16K to far more
24:26
people than any other machine on the
24:28
market but the RS Turbo has taken an
24:31
already amazing printer and made it even
24:33
better and then I've made it better
24:35
still by adding decals on it if I had go
24:37
faster stripes I'm sure that I'd speed
24:39
it up more too and yes proprietary resin
24:43
sucks i get all the fears around it but
24:45
as I've said and I hope you've seen now
24:47
you can use your own i've argued with
24:49
Heygears about it live on stream in
24:52
front of everyone and they are not
24:54
budging no matter how much I or anyone
24:57
else piss and moan about it that part's
24:59
not changing i've made my peace with it
25:02
because it's not unique it's just the
25:04
iPhone of printers and if this decision
25:06
damages the company then it's on them to
25:10
live with the result of that decision
25:12
nothing I or anyone else is going to
25:14
change that so please by all means hate
25:16
the company but at least love the
25:18
printer or at least respect the printer
25:21
either way I want to ask something
25:23
really nice in the sake of progress and
25:25
friendship and all the happy feelings
25:27
that we want these days can we just stop
25:30
fighting each other about this and focus
25:32
on the things that actually matter
25:34
because we all love 3D printing we all
25:37
want it to get better and I think if
25:39
people are prepared to pull back the red
25:41
curtain of outrage we can all see that
25:43
Heygears genuinely is the only brand
25:47
actually pushing us forward in any
25:49
meaningful way so this printer might not
25:52
be for a lot of people but this printer
25:54
is still definitely for more people than
25:56
the community seem to think and that's
25:58
on Heygears for not controlling the
25:59
message more cleanly but if you're out
26:02
there wondering what is the best resin
26:04
printer for detail ease of use futurep
26:07
proofing something with a powerful
26:09
slicer the smoothest workflow and
26:11
updates that actually make the product
26:13
better after you buy it I'm standing by
26:15
what I said before this is it this is
26:18
the only one and if you still think I'm
26:21
saying that just for an affiliate cut
26:23
then don't use my link i'd love it if
26:25
you did because that's what helps the
26:27
channel but even if you don't I'm still
26:29
going to say it again buy the printer
26:31
anyway my drive in this is I want this
26:34
printer to succeed i want it to dominate
26:36
i want it to set a precedent to push the
26:40
whole industry forward and the more of
26:42
us who back this kind of innovation the
26:45
faster the rest of the brands will be
26:47
forced to catch up that is how resin
26:50
printing gets better for all of us i
26:53
want to do a quick outro and just say
26:55
thanks for watching but with a massive
26:56
shout out to our channel members whose
26:58
names are up on screen now all of you
27:00
watching you are the guys who keep me
27:02
going so please just give me one of
27:04
those likes a comment a subscribe
27:07
something that lets me know that this
27:08
was valuable to you thanks again until
27:11
next time the system is rigged but you
27:14
are not powerless fauxhammer out
