DLP resin printing prototype working

Hi,

its alive!, after starting out with the topic of resin printing 3 years ago, and after purchasing an off-the-shelve dlp resin printer i've finaly took the plunge and build my own dlp resin printer.
and it works and the improvements and redesigns are an ongoing topic in my mind )

so what did I make here are the specs:

Z-axis: Belt driven 450mm
planary stepper motor to provide enough torque
aluminium extrusions and polycarbonate plates
Vat to hold the resin currently 150mmx100mm
first surface mirror

electronics:
Arduino + ramps and 1 pololu
ACER P1500
Laptop

here are some videos and results so far.

What software did you use for printer control?

Hi,
we used 'Creation Workshop'
and open source initiative by Stevn Hernandez.
