axoid Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 I have a Printrbot Simple Metal coming. It's my first one and it looks to be a good starter.Does anyone else already have a 3D printer or seriously looking to get one? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikon Posted December 5, 2014 Share Posted December 5, 2014 I think this is a very timely and topical subject. I am interested in getting 3D printer, but I have some requirements so I'm not sure what to get. I guess I'm just not ready to pull the plug yet. While I'm not ruling out printing with PLA and ABS, I'm not willing to settle for just those materials. I want a material with more resilience, like PTFE or nylon: good and stiff, yet flexible. Taulman makes some interesting filaments: http://taulman3d.com. Polycarbonate filament would be interesting. Also, food-safe filaments. I have several mundane projects that I'd like to do. I look forward to reading about your experiences and, hopefully, others will chime in with theirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
