Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Homebrew stereo Lithography

A mm is .03937" These machines that I have seen work .005" or less. There are two kinds that I am aware of. The first kind is a
tank of liquid with a platform .005" below the surface. The laser runs through the program and hardens the liquid above the
platform. Then the platform drops down .005" and things repeat.
The second kind is you do not use a laser but you have a nozzle that lays a bead of plastic on the platform. The platform drops
and the nozzle does it again. I guess this type does work in layers of .040" to .060".
I am going to the WESTEC tool show in LA tomorrow. I will look around and see what they are offering.
