[T] Demo print idea

A project log for Liquid Laminate Lithography 3D Printer [gd0105]

The best of resin with the best of filament; is such a 3D printer possible?

I'm probably getting ahead of myself and I haven't even modelled it, but I wanted to mention it so that I can get it off my mind. I'm thinking that a demo print can be a custom variation of a tub of "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter", but the name is "I Can't Believe It's Not Polyjet". I'm hoping to have the lid clip on to the tub, but it would be even better if a it was a print in place assembly.

It's something along the lines of the idea that people in the distant past wanted faster horses instead of cars. I think most hobbyists that dream of affording a Polyjet printer actually want a printer that produces those highly detailed and coloured prints and have less importance on the method. I don't think people were all that keen on 2D ink cartridge clogs due to those small nozzles and the VLM process seems closer to the toner 2D printer.
