The 3M 7501 vents downwards, which doesn't fog up my glasses. Also, it's made out of silicon, and has a valve that makes breathing a lot easier. I really like it.

There are a number of solutions out there (commercial and DIY) for enclosing the printer in a box which you then vent outside. I don't think they're really a solution because when you remove the part from the printer, when you remove it from the plate, when you pour the resin back into the bottle, fumes will escape into the room. You can wear a respirator while you do these things, but if you watch TV in that room an hour later, will you still be wearing it? Probably not.

Now, maybe I (and others) are being too cautious. Maybe these fumes won't do anything to you. I don't want to take the risk, however, of waking up 10 years from now and discovering I have lung problems from this. It's just not remotely worth it.

I'm fortunate enough to live in a house, with a garage, with a small (4' x 8') utility room off the garage, with a door and vent on an outside wall. I think this is a perfect resin printing "facility." I put a bathroom exhaust fan on the ceiling and feed it via a hose to the vent. I still wear a respirator whenever I'm in there. And, yet, there are people on here that consider even this setup reckless.
