Mouse I printed on my Photon mono 4K. SLA is a learning curve for sure! I had LOTS of failures trying to print this.

Once UV resin is cured and cleaned properly its perfectly safe to touch. It is a huge pain to work with in liquid state tho. Gotta wear gloves, mask, and eye protection. I have a wash station filled with alcohol that cleans my prints and a curing station.

In theory yes, but in practice it may not be. It's all about personal risk tolerance. If you have higher tolerance you can ignore the possibility of health issues. Let people decide for themselves.
