In this paper we demonstrate that it is possible to produce low cost neutron-sensitive detectors using stereo-lithography additive manufacturing. A curable scintillating resin is made by mixing BN:ZnS with a commercially available UV resin. This resin is used to print several small area neutron detectors made of arrays of BN:ZnS cones that can be directly coupled to a photo-multiplier tube.
