Please note: Upon initial receipt of your ULTIM8 FUN, it may require reshaping due to potential deformation caused by heat or conditions during shipping. Simply massage the funnel, and it will return to its original shape. Similarly, if the product is stored for extended periods while folded in a box or storage container, it may also experience minor deformation.
Here is an adapter for narrow mouth bottles.
To use:
To use while pouring and filtering resin from the resin vat back to the bottle simply place the ULTIM8 FUN into the bottle, and add a paper conical filter. If the filter has top tabs, you can lock these onto the top hooks. Pour your resin through. When done, throw away the filter cone, and wipe down with IPA. It can be compressed to fit into your wash stations.
To use while pouring and filtering IPA, first effectuate a rough pour through paper conical filters as described above, then use our 3D-Printable printable shelf. Place this on the inner ledge of the ULTIM8 FUN and place a round Ø110 disc of fine filter paper to do a fine particulate filter of your IPA to clean it as much as possible. Repeat as many times as needed. The high grade silicone will not be harmed by IPA or chemicals in resins. When done, throw away the filter cone, and wipe down with IPA. It can be compressed to fit into your wash stations.
Tip:For optimal results, begin by pouring the isopropyl alcohol (IPA) into a glass jar, ensuring that you avoid transferring any sediment or concentrated resin from the bottom. Expose the jar to sunlight for 2-3 days, allowing the hardened particulates to settle. Once the solution has been clarified, carefully decant the upper, clearer portion through the ULTIM8 FUN filtration system using a paper disk to capture any remaining impurities.
This funnel is exactly what I needed to avoid a mess when recycling my resin after printing.
easy flow of resin to the bottle due to the construction and easy to clean.
dos what a funnel do
As a funnel for resin it really does the job of being a funnel for resin.
9/10 would recommend.
You could buy a cheap silicon funnel which would collapse at the worst possible time or have to fold and bend your filters to fit...or you could just buy the perfect funnel for resin printing once.
It's cold in the garage so I'm not printing much but I've been quite pleased with the design of this funnel. It works perfectly with the paper filter cones that I use when emptying my vat back into a bottle. It also cleans up easily with IPA. This is a great product, along with the new spatula.
