Default Re: Anyone into 3D printing ?

$1000

The velleman k8200.

200mm x 200mm x 200mm

0.2mm resolution
0.5mm print head

It's one of the only ones that allow control of temperature for different plastics.

190 degrees for black PLA
194 degrees for red PLA
230 degrees for black ABS etc

And the print bed goes from 0 to 135 degrees.

It's a good printer but in kit form isn't worth $1300 retail considering the mods required to print at a satisfactory finish especially if you have no technical knowledge.

Otherwise it's alright a bit of tweaking and mods and it's now printing almost spot on
