New 3d Printer

[weaver]

ok guys, i`ve played around with 3d printing in school and decided that i now want one. I`m looking for something that will hold decent repeated tolerances, and decent print quality. ive worked with a makerbot before and after may hours on it, i decided that it is not very good. So i`ve heard of many others but not sure what to go with. looking for about a 10 by 8 by 8 inch plate,approximately, probably will stick with pla and abs unless you guys think there is something better. hoping to keep it under $600 but willing to budge a little. I`ve designed a lot of things in autocad that i`ve printed, so looking for something that takes that stl file or something i can with with that. Thanks in advance.

I Have two 270y X 220x X 190z Axis 3D Printers. I built a 3D Printer Enclosure to fit both 3D Printers out of a single sheet of plywood.

3DP11 and 3DP12 both Upgraded to Marlin 1.1.7 with plans for Marlin 1.1.9 bugfix.
I have printed both PLA and ABS using the Factory bed print Surface.
Ask if I would do it again the Answer is Yes defiantly.

please Tell me difference between 3d printers & normal printers?

Simple!
Can your desktop inkjet printer print a physical object like a coffee mug that you can pour coffee into then drink from this mug.
Can you color laser-jet printer print a Cell Phone mount the will hold your phone securely to your cars dash while you drive around.

It the printer your are using takes a plastic string like used in your weed eater an prints layer upon layer to form a 3 dimensional object,
An not a picture of a 3 dimensional object and this object can be used, then this printer could be a 3D Printer.
