3D Resin Printing…..Thoughts about that and the Possible future of Miniature War Gaming
By Tom Burgess
Editor’s note: This is the second of our two part look at 3D resin printing for wargamers.

I know what you are thinking “wouldn’t it be great if I could print the high quality wargame miniatures I want on demand?” The true wargamer response to that has to be “of course!” That’s what I was thinking when I ordered my own 3D resin printer. But it has been an interesting journey for me with some pleasant and some not so pleasant surprises. This endeavor has made me think about the future of wargaming and how I will fit in with it now that I can make my own models.
Quality resin 3D printers are coming down in price and there are so many people offering free and for-a-fee 3D print files, it just may be that we are entering a new age for miniature wargaming. So where might this road be taking us, and is 3D printing for everyone? These are questions that I will attempt to look at in this article. There may be some misconceptions.
So the first thing you are thinking about when considering to buy a 3D resin printer is probably that you’ll save a lot of money on your wargame miniatures.
