Resin de' etre

Been toying with the idea of adding a resin printer to my arsenal. I don't know why, since I've only really been interested in practical prints with my FDM printer. The one time I tried printing the Liru figure I found on Thingiverse, the results were disappointing.

A brief search last night turned up an article about the 11 best low cost resin printers. And nearest the cheap end were two I was slightly familiar with, the ELEGOO Mars, and Creality LD-002H. At the time the list was made, the Mars was slightly cheaper, and on Amazon it was $239 with a $35 coupon. But then I went to Creality, and the LD-002H was on sale for $189. Moving it up on the list, but then I checked the ELEGOO site, and my choice was made, because the base Mars model was on sale for $149.99! Also, although most of it was sold out, the Resin was cheaper there than on Amazon as well, ($19.99 for 500 g vs $21.99) (They don't include a sample with the machine). So the total was $169.98 for the printer and resin, and the shipping was free (they also didn't charge me tax, which Creality did on my Ender 3. Very naughty. :-)

Getting back to Thingiverse, I put up my first thing back on Monday. However, for some reason, even though I did hit Publish, it is not showing up in my profile. I was able to add it to one of my collections. And my Analytics shows that scrapers, I assume, immediately downloaded it 464 times in the first hour, and nothing since. I'd heard the site is kinda broken and running on autopilot, but I had no idea it was that bad. Support has been unresponsive.

It's a sleeve to protect a notepad in my pocket, if you're curious. You can't find it in the Search engine either.
