Abstract: A three-dimensional printing apparatus includes a tank that stores a liquid photo-curable resin; a base on which the tank is placed and which includes a light passage portion through which light passes; an optical device that is disposed below the base, includes a light source, and irradiates the resin with light emitted from the light source through the light passage portion; and a holder provided above the tank so that when lowered, the holder is immersed in the resin, and when raised, the holder lifts the cured resin. A front-rear length of the tank is longer than a front-rear length of the holder. A front-rear center of the holder is located rearward relative to a front-rear center of the tank, and a front-rear length between a front end of the tank and a front end of the holder is equal to or longer than the front-rear length of the holder.
