Okay, that makes sense! Thanks

What is the cube thing in the upper left hand side? Looks like tofu to me but that's an unlikely pairing with steak and potatoes.

You could also just let the print finish. Then open the door before you go out there to gather it. giving it a few minutes to vent. I have minimal experience with resin printing so I don't know how the sunlight would affect it. Putting the printer behind something to block the light seems reasonable as well.

Good luck. You can find these respirators on Amazon. 3m is a common brand.

If you're smelling a strong odor then a respirator would be advised. You need one with an organic vapor cartridge. Surgical mask is doing nothing for you in this situation. Probably easier just to get some good ventilation going though. Or minimize you time around the printer.

To get the strut out, you also have to unbolt the upper control arm at the ball joint. I had this car for 16 years and have done it this way several times.

Edit: also unbolt the sway bar if have not done so.

You'll melt the bushing if you heat up the bolt on the lower control arm. I would grind off the nut with an angle grinder, probably the easiest way. Make sure to load up the suspension a bit to get the bolt out easier.

Edit: After getting the lower bolt off you can remove the entire strut from the car and figure out how to get off the shock clamp bolt.
