NOT print in plastic
I've just joined this site so this may be covered already.
I want to print a range of models but not in plastic - unless, or course it doesn't look like plastic.
The finish I want is the same as you get on fine detailed models cast in plaster/resin compounds like the model cottages you can buy (Lilliput Lane style models).
I also want to be able to get very fine detail like the model cottages that are cast in silicon rubber moulds.
Is this possible with a 3D printer that isn't going to cost as much as my house?
I've just got a Matter and Form 3D scanner which is TOTALLY useless at the moment because there is no Mac software for it. I hope to use it (EVENTUALLY?) to scan models I am making in wax, plasticine and wood and then fine-tune them in a 3D modelling program before outputting them to a 3D printer.
