I'd recommend the Elegoo Mars 4 Ultra, along with the Mercury XS wash and cure station. You can get that off Amazon for under $400. You'd still need resin and ppe, and other consumables, but you'd be well under 1k and the quality is amazing.
As someone who rides public transportation every day that I'm not allowed to work from home, it's not convenient or clean and the only reliable thing about the MTA is that there will be "unavoidable delays"
