Why We Recommend Anycubic Funnel 3D Models
1. Avoid leakage and a mess — the pointed diversion port on the top and the cap on the bottom keep the resin bottle clean when pouring resin, moreover the funnel with a bottom cap 100% fits both Anycubic 500g&1000g Resin Bottles.
2. Easy to use — the funnel acts as a sturdy base, holding the paper strainer inside to prevent spilling or tipping over, while effectively filtering small pieces of cured resin hidden in the vat.
3. Save cost — save about $1, each time uncured resin is filtered from the tank for reuse.
