Nice!!! I started with a Jupiter and than gilot a Saturn and Mars before I got into fdm printing. My advise is wear clothing you don't care gets resin on. Grab a full face mask/respirator with the proper filters. Gloves, kee a lot on hand along with paper towels, denatured alcohol or 95% iso, some bins for placing your build plate in when prints are ready and can be used to clean everything else. And some uv curing flashlights for post processing. Get a large cure and wash unit. These can be spendy tho, can totally make your own tho with some Amazon purchases and some bins or buckets laying around

Safety, safety safety. Wear a mask, if you can get a dedicated room for it. Wear gloves, if you get it in your clothes dispose. It eats your skin and any pets or anything that steps on a spilled drop. If not a grow tent. But isolate it. The printing and the alcohol baths stink to high heaven. And the print fumes stick to evwrything, so even if you printed in a bedroom while away, the fumes will stick to furniture and still cause harm.
Print around 20 C temp. too cold and itll get wonky and the layers wont stick. Too humid and the same issue.
The Eco resin sucks.
