The main issue I see with that is uneven curing. Since the UV is only on the bottom, it would only cure where the UV can hit it. I suppose it might be possible if you manually turned the print to cure every angle, but I imagine this still wouldn't cure evenly.
Yeah I was about to post the same. I actually modified my old printer (sparkmaker) to be my curing box. To solve the turning issue I put the LED panel upright by strapping it to the Z linear rail, chopped short the Z lead-screw and attached a lazy Suzan to that screw.
