Is there a way to farm photogenic resins for 3D printers from plants (grow and process)?
That's fascinating. What is the process for extracting the resin from the plant?
The process for extracting the resin can vary depending on the plant used. For example, with pine trees, the resin is extracted by making a small cut on the tree trunk and collecting the ooze that comes out. With soybeans, the oil is pressed out of the beans and then mixed with other materials to make the photopolymer resin.
