That’s a great price, specially for the dimensions you get. Have you done any research regarding other customer experience with this printer?

I love this kind of projects.
I don’t own a 3d printer myself just yet but everytime I have a project in mind I send my files to an Ebay 3d printing service and they delivery it to me (my last 3d project was 3d printing a motherboard cover plate).

Several people o. Thingi[quote=“Tank, post:84, topic:66788, full:true”]
Again this is an instance where it’s best left to others. Reviews for this are mixed but a lot have said it’s great and the Ines who have issues I feel may be user error from those who do not understand what they need to do to prepare and print stuff

I have seen . few people on thingiverse that use this model. That’s the thing about reviews - some people get a 3d printer with no experience and think they are just going to start churning out whatever they want :laughing:

I think this sort of thing is best thought of as a hobby - like, I’m going to learn 3d printing for its own sake, and maybe I’ll make some cool / useful stuff while I’m at it. If you think of it as a “will I get my money back from my printer” you’re bound to be disappointed. BUT, if you think of it as “this is a cool toy and I’m going to learn some things from it” then you’re definitely going to be satisfied!

But back to the printer - II have not used that model, but there are people out there making it work. Like anything, if you take good care of it you’ll probably be able to get a good life out of it.

exactly, everything works if you take the time to learn and the effort to maintain it. I was about to order the pro model, but gonna have to hold off for the time being. Im still missing my Vermont tax return and I don’t want to be left in the hole if an emergency comes up and i don’t have any cash on hand. so for now our Micro3D printer will have to be sufficient

So right about now I really would like a mint for my powerport 5. I would love to screw it onto the back of a wooden box I use :joy:

Can you send the link to the service you use? I’m interested…

#95

You can always contract a 3D business online. Try these guys out. I am looking at using them for that phone/watch holder.

How much do you think it would cost to print this?

#97

That’s 37g of plastic, so if you use this type of filament, the plastic would cost $1.92.

#98

But if I had a service so it for me, how much would it cost?

#99

Thanks for the link

Hey @Tank and anyone else thinking about a 3D printer - check out the Amazon US deal today:

Thanks, I was gonna order but my wife said no because we don’t have the money. I said that’s what credit cards are for and she took mine :joy::rage:

You should have kept some “secret funds” at Paypal! :wink:

#103

I have PayPal, I have 2 credit lines and my business account so I can use it, but Amazon doesn’t offer to pay with PayPal. I can still use my credit card as I have all that info saved in my Amazon account :grin:. But she is right, I’m trying to pay off our debt so we don’t have to deal with it

#104

Of course she is right!
Women are ALWAYS right, aren’t they? :wink:

#105

IDK - I’d probably charge $10 if I had a service. Larger volume services might charge less though.

#106

BRUTAL! :money_with_wings:

#107

Interesting. Okay… that might be a bit much for something I want :joy:
