Hey guys. I'm really new to this whole 3D printer thing, however I'm interested in buying one actually. After searching around for models, types etc, there was one in particular that cought my eye, it has a really unique design also own software, which I found here:
What are the parts made out of? The more durable the better. If they are just 3d printed parts they will suck.
Free slicing software is a gimmick to me. Every 3d printer should provide this. Especially if they want you to use it and buy their other products.
Also do you want an FDM machine or powder based?
With FDM like a Makerbot or yours you get what you pay for. I've tested 3 different brands and the lower cost ones are a migraine.
What do you want to make with your printer? You may be better off with powder based or just outsourcing your models depending on how often you use it. Good luck.
