Form1 FEP based resin tray prototype

Here is a photo of the vat. The FEP film is clamped between the top plate (vat wall plate) and the base plate using 2 gaskets. The acrylic support plate is inserted from the bottom of the vat and is held and tensioned with a snap in retainer. The vat is made of cast polyurethane and the support plate is made of cast acrylic (so it can be cleaned with alcohol without cracking or crazing).
