I'm looking at getting into these and I'm suffering from info overload and my poor brain is full and ready to explode. :o Anyone on here with experience in them and using them at all. ??? I'm not looking at gazillion dollar ones but the Creality Ender range. I'm wanting to make my own parts for different areas of treadlies that have shown up weaknesses and also other areas away from bikes. ???

Quote from: Foo on August 09, 2021, 04:12:33 AMI may have 1 or 4 of them. Creality ones will be needing mods to get the best out of them. Buy cheap pay twice. Filament drying is now becoming a standard before using them. Expect a lot of rejected parts.

After 2 months of being unable to work or get any government funding, ever, (didn't meet their criteria), I'm looking forward to doing some actual work.
So going to the local butchers for some king rib eye steaks, local IGA for milk, hitch up the trailer, 270ltrs diesel already on board, I'm breaking out................ Legally ;D

Umm, it's not. :( It's on the back burner till I can get a lot of other things sorted out. I need lots of time for learning how to use tech stuff and that is a problem for me. :'(
