Does anyone on the group use a Formlabs Fuze 1+ 30w? Im interested to talk to anyone who has a Safe Operating Procedure for this machine, what sort of PPE is used, and how you handle the dust waste? Thanks in advance. Richard @Googledeepmind. ---

A lot of this is covered already on the Formlabs support pages, there are different workflows from some users you can check the forum for this. About PPE you need a mask with filters, gloves, and maybe googles, or you can use a 3M Versaflo. It all depends on your budget, space and operating conditions. ---
