Nice work Chappyman

I have borrowed a resin printer and I have enjoyed playing around with it. 

Have found found the tough resin more durable? I have read about using a flexible resin and mixing it with another resin to print bodies with a bit of flex.

Anyone had any experience with that? Any suggestions for a suitable flexible resin.

Yep, plenty of experience.

'tough' resin isn't really tough, it's just tougher than the basic resins and will easily break in a crash.

I mix Siraya Blu with Siraya Tenacious.  Blu is much more resilient than so called 'tough' resins, you can print with Blu only and it's pretty rugged if the bodyshell is thicker than 1mm.

Blu & Tenacious are much more viscous and don't print as easily as ABS-like resins...and a fair bit more expensive than ABS-like.  As with all resins you'll have to do a few validation prints to get exposure right.

When my stash of Blu/Tenacious runs out I'm going to get a bottle of Siraya Blu Nylon which shouldn't need mixing with anything.
