Post by: WarWulf on June 21, 2012, 11:56:44 AM
i just bought an Up 3d printer. i wont lie. its slow and intercourses up every once in a while the heating plate doesnt get hot symmetrically  but other then that, having a 3d printer is meddling amazing and soon every house will have one and no one will ever goto the store lol. *buys some stock*

I saw a bunch of these at the maker fair I went to a couple weeks ago.  They're improving and the price has come down a lot, but they still aren't quite the resolution I'd like.  I want to print little figurines for games and such, and these just wouldn't cut it... yet.

For your next purchase, I'd suggest a better camera and some software that can scale images. ;)
