How NOT to 3D Print a Cosplay Helmet

In this video, I show how I used the new Apex Maker X1 3D Printer to 3D Print a cosplay helmet in UNDER 4 hours!

To be honest, I made every beginner mistake in the book with this project. I still have a LOT to learn about resin 3D printing. But fortunately, the Apex Maker X1 was able to overcome (most) of my mistakes and create a 3D printed cosplay helmet that honestly turned out pretty amazing, nonetheless! And honestly, the Apex Maker X1 might be the best resin 3d printer of 2023... at least, of the ones I've tested!

I hope you guys enjoy this 3D printing project video, and if you do, let me know in the comments below!
