Hi :)
given that the resin for SLA printing is pretty toxic, would you say that a ring, which is made with this material is save to wear (after washing and curing)?
Uv cured resin is used in dentistry. I would assume it’s safe once cured.
Ideally, for jewelry, you’d use the print as a base layer that’s then plated or as a positive for a mold. There are some biocompatible resins but you’re still making assumptions and compromises with it.
Especially for a ring, any finishing layers will wear off directly on the skin so you’d have to account for that. Highly recommend using the print to make a silicone mold that you can then make an epoxy copy of it. Or a wax copy to then create a metal copy
Multiple steps, I know, but for safe jewelry, printers are better as a starting point tool instead of a finished product generator
Once the resin is cured it’s way less toxic.
A ring is pretty small and as long as you don’t swallow it you’re fine.
