I am working on a new Wii portable, and wanted to experiment with case materials. I was going to order what I wanted from @PCBWayOfficial, but they offered store credit to cover the cost if I make 2 posts tagging them. Here's a thread review of my experience ordering resin prints

We shall start with what I would have paid for these:
Front White Case (UTR-8360): $2.49
Back White Case (UTR-8360): $4.85
Front Clear Case (UTR-8100): $9.71
Back Clear Case (UTR-8100): $19.40
Doesn't include shipping, tariff, etc.

The visual finish on the white case is fantastic. Layer lines are nearly invisible, but on some faces can barely feel with a fingernail. The feel is fine, but the texture is a tad more matte than I prefer. If I made this into a portable, I would give it a once-over with 1000grit

The UTR-8100 Transparent clear resin print isn't just "kinda" clear, its like... glass clear. Its the same materials as their UTR-8100 translucent, but they spray it with some sort of surface varnish that fills in the surface gaps. The result is really impressive

The surface texture is very, very glossy. Layer lines are nowhere to be found or felt, except in deeper crevices where the surface spray couldn't reach. Because its clear though, any internal imperfections are visible; you can see some bubbles on the back case here

Do note that since the surface varnish is a coating, it adds a tiny bit of thickness, and can affect tolerances. These white buttons slide in and out on an FDM and white resin print, but are friction fit on the transparent case, so sanding/adjustment will be needed.

All in all, the clear print is great. Having a custom clear piece made for this price is pretty crazy. But Im late to the party on this one; its already become a go-to in the console modding scene.

Summary? Solid bang for buck on both of these. I'll almost certainly be ordering more of these in the future. The biggest bummer was shipping time was substantially longer than estimated, mainly because of the other piece in this order. But that's a story for my next thread...

And once again, full disclosure:
-I designed the parts
-I was gonna place this order anyway
-They offered me store credit for 2 posts tagging them
-I was not paid for this
-They gave no talking points, and didn't tell me what to say
-They did not review this post before posting
