Hey, y'all!


I am interested in printing my own soup bowls and wanted to reach out with some initial questions about the process to see if it is feasible for my needs.


This would be a fairly large production, hypothetically 300 bowls. Ongoing production (not necessarily 300 bowls/batch each time).


Durability. Is the material used in 3D printing able to handle high heat? Is it food safe? Is it insulation enough to hold boiling liquid without burning one's hands when holding the bowl?


Cost. I know there is a vast range of options, but is there any way to ballpark cost a basic soup bowl, cost per bowl? Does this cost vary depending on color? Does it vary if any design or logo is added to the bowl? What about the cost of the printer itself? I am willing to spend more for a printer that can easily handle higher volume production (again, +/-300 bowls).


Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
