"3d printing" makes people think it's as simple as hitting the "print" button for a 2d printer but it's not.  It's more like owning a CNC milling machine.  There's a lot to learn.  So you might want to just order stuff on 3dhubs.com at first.

I recommend you use 3dhubs.com also to compare models of printers as they have rated hundreds of printers using thousands of reviewers.

The one feature I recommend is "open source".  I didn't realize how important that is until after I got my printer.  Having a printer where you violate the warranty if you modify it or having a printer where you are forced to buy the manufacturers filament is very bad thing.

 

I was think of getting a XYZ Da Vinci 1.0 printer i dont know yet. I do know how to use all cad softwares.

thank for the reply
