I just received an unexpected SLA printer from what I had assumed was a failed Kickstarter for the "Coolsiga FinderOne" or C1 or Classic. The manual is clearly intended for someone who has some context, but my past experience has been entirely FDM based.

I'm not claiming it's a good manual by any stretch of the imagination, nor am I confident that it will work -- but is there an "Dummies Guide to SLA Printers" I can read through to at least know what it's talking about?

I believe SLA parts also require drain holes for the resin on the inside of the part to drain out through?

Yes and if the part isn't hollow use the slicer to make it hollow.
