How to use Ventilation with 3D Printers.
In this video, we delve into how ventilation can be used to increase safety with FDM and Resin 3D Printers. Venting or filtering emissions from a 3D printer will improve indoor air quality. Resin printers should ideally be in a garage or workshop. Entry-level filament like PLA is comparably safer and often doesn't need ventilation. Engineering filament like ABS should be vented or filtered.
