Hey everyone!
I was hoping to take this chance to introduce myself, and hopefully get to know you all!
My name is Laura and I'm pretty new to 3D printing. My background was in 2D design graphics,
but the third dimension has been a great advancement for me.I'm just here to share my first experiences in 3D printing, and hope the rest of you would share yours.
We can share ideas, experiences, and hopefully learn from eachother.
My first 3D printer was a cheap buy at £160, a RapRap i3, and it seemed to hold together, but flimsy parts made me
anxious. It started falling apart after the first few runs, and I'm not going to waste money on China-crap again.
I decided to do a major upgrade and bought a Prusa i3 from Prusa Research. So far, no problems! It's been reliable, and doesn't feel
like it's going to fall apart just yet. I guess you really do have to pay for quality. Still, it wasn't half as expensive as I'd be willing to pay for it.
Thanks for sharing guys,
let me know what you've been doing and share some of your ideas!
