But I don't know much about the LCD/resin printers. It my possibly incorrect understanding that resin is a better option for somebody endlessly printing. Otherwise you have to clean up every time you're done printing.

Most of what you read on the Web would lead you to believe that, but it is really a myth. You can leave liquid resin right in the vat for a long time, just so long as you keep it away from UV light, which the covers that all resin printers include will do just fine (especially in a darkened room).  You can also buy extra vats and print covers for them.

I recently left a batch of leftover resin in the machine for around four months and then used it with only a quick stir. It worked just fine.

I am totally sold on resin printers. I just acquired the wonderful new Elegoo Saturn as my second printer.
