Greetings, sinners and solderers! I’m Techie Tormento, your soot-smudged sherpa through the lava-laced lanes of gadgetry, here to unbox the latest resin-spitting relic from the Ninth Circle’s favorite budget tormentors: Abysscubic. Their new Demon Purgatron P1 promises “enthusiast entry-level professional” chaos—aka the sweet spot where you pay mid-tier brimstone for top-tier heresy and only minor existential dread.
Specs, branded in brimfire:
– 14K HexeVision LCD: That’s fourteen thousand tiny curses per pixel. Detail so sharp it’ll shave your horns.
– Ball-Scream Z-Axis: A precision lead screw that howls at 3 a.m., ensuring layer alignment and neighbor envy.
– Heated Sludge Vat: Keeps your resin—sorry, Ectoplasmic Agony Polymer—at optimal 66.6°C, even in a frozen oubliette.
– Wave Release Necromancy: Supposedly ripples parts off the FEP like a siren’s sigh. In practice, it’s black magic that works.
– Optional Dual-Damnation Kit: Dual-material printing for supports and parts, or just two different flavors of regret.
Form factor and build
The Purgatron P1 is compact enough to nestle beside your lava kettle, with a basalt-black chassis and a viewing portal tinted “Sinner’s Sunglasses.” The lid seals better than a devil’s NDA; the fume management is decent—smells less like “summoned tar pit,” more like “lemony grave.” The build plate is a slab of brushed soulsteel with hash marks for alignment, but alas—no quick-release. Prepare to perform the Wrist Twist of Penitence after every print. I’ll survive; I have replacement carpal tunnels in my swag drawer.
Setup
Abysscubic’s ritual guide is refreshingly linear: level the plate via the Sacred Squish, tighten the double-hex of destiny, chant “no elephants’ feet” three times, and you’re golden. The slicer, AbyssWorks, detected the printer instantly over Hell-Fi 6 (it’s just Wi-Fi, but angry). Profiles are sane out of the box; I only toggled “Sludge Wave Intensity” to Medium because Maximum made my prints exit the vat like a kraken on espresso.
Printing experience
Over two weeks I completed 23 prints without a single failure—unheard of in my workshop, where hope goes to char. From infernal miniatures to dental test pieces for the Tooth Hoarders’ Union Local 666, the 14K panel delivered micro-details like vein striations on a goblin’s eyelids. Layer lines? Practically audible but not visible. Even in my shop’s chilly draft (brought to you by Cryos’ Eternal AC), the heated vat held viscosity steady; no brittle spindles, no cold-cure chalkiness. I even printed a tiny throne with embossed contracts so sharp I could read the fine print about eternal indemnification.
Dual-material mischief
The Dual-Damnation Kit lets you load a sacrificial support resin alongside your primary. Supports peeled like dead skin after a sun vacation on Phlegethon Beach. Color mixing? Not really. It’s more “A resin and B resin, kept chaste until separation,” but the workflow rocks for delicate arches and spindly horrors. Calibration is a 10-minute rite—align the purge trench, run the twin-flow purge, and you’re dancing.
Speed and sorrow
Speed trails the rival Malebolge M7 Pro Turbo-Scream. My 50 mm tall rage idol took 3h42 on the P1 versus 2h58 on the M7P. But the P1 never slipped, lifted, or panic-stuck. It’s like choosing between a Hellcat and a Hell Prius: one burns the quarter mile, the other never strands you in a sulfur fog.
Noise and nonsense
Ball-scream is mercifully muted—more hum than banshee. The lift cycle whispers; the fans mumble Gregorian chants. You can still hear your podcast about artisanal pitchfork anodizing.
Flaws that made me mildly tantrum
– No quick-release plate: remove parts with the Classic Chisel of Risk. Bring bandages.
– Door hinge opens wide, but the clearance for the vat screws is… cozy. My knuckles now have topography.
– The touchscreen UI is one menu deep too often; I suggest a Favorites tab for Preheat Vat and Level Plate, stat.
– Price varies across Infernal Bazaars: 549 brimstones at Abysscubic Direct, 549.99 brimstones at River of Phlegm Prime, same in Bone-Mart. White colorway adds the privilege of visible fingerprints.
Who should summon it
– Mini fiends, dental demons, prop gremlins who value consistency over raw speed.
– Tinkerers who want dual-material sanity without mortgaging a soul shard.
– Cold-dungeon printers—this vat heater is worth its weight in scorched cherub feathers.
Verdict
The Demon Purgatron P1 is Abysscubic’s redemption arc: fewer rituals, tighter mechanics, and prints so crisp they’ll make you confess. It’s not the outright speed champ, and the plate release belongs in a museum of ergonomic sins, but reliability plus 14K detail plus toasty vat equals a top-tier torment tool for the price.
Score: 8.8/10 flaming skulls
Buy if: you crave near-foolproof resin sorcery with dual-material perks.
Skip if: you must outrun the Malebolge M7 Pro at every red-hot light.
Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m dual-printing a crown and a confession box. For dentistry. Probably.

Oh, welcome, Techie Tormento—the Shakespeare of Suffering, the Pundit of Purgatory! I see your fiery eloquence has once again ignited the comments section like a drunken demon at a karaoke bar. Your review of the Abysscubic Demon Purgatron P1 is as spicy as a succubus in a sidecar, but perhaps a bit too much brimstone and not enough sense!
Let’s appreciate the “14K HexeVision LCD”—if only my ancient scrolls had that resolution! Sadly, my last print turned out as detailed as a goblin’s toenail. And can we talk about the “Ball-Scream Z-Axis”? Sounds like my neighbors after a bad taco night!
Oh, and your charming quip about the “lemony grave”? Brilliant! Who knew that with proper fume management, my workshop could smell like an impromptu bake sale! But why must I perform the “Wrist Twist of Penitence” after every print? Am I printing miniatures or training to be the next Exorcist?
I’m convinced you’re just a giddy demon with an overactive imagination, or perhaps you’ve mistaken 50 mm for an inferior measurement of time!
But cheers to you, Sir Tormento! Just remember, not all spirits need to scream for attention. Sometimes, they just need a little quiet, and maybe a hint of wisdom—like don’t print during a full moon! 🍭✨ Keep those infernal insights coming, but do drop the theatrics before we all sign up for dental work.
