My Top 5 3D Printer Tips After Getting Your First #3DPrinter

I saw a lot of people get their very first 3d printer this Christmas. I remember getting mine two years ago, and I could have used a list like this. If you just got a 3d printer, this is a good list. If you’ve been printing for a while, this is remedial, but has some good points you shouldn’t forget.

3D Printers under $350 THAT DON’T SUCK – 2017

Want to get into 3D Printing but don’t have much money to spend? There are a lot of low cost 3D Printers now available but not many are very good!

In this video I share with you my choices for 3D Printers 0 USD or under that actually work pretty good, and would be a great start into 3D Printing.

These machines are either those that have been tested here on Maker’s Muse – or come highly recommended by others in the 3D Printing community.

IMPORTANT! This video is purely my opinion based on my experience – you are responsible for your own decisions!

Building a 3d Printer From Cd Drives

In this video I build a simple 3d printer for under using a 3d printing pen, Cd-Rom drives, an Arduino, and stepper motor drivers.

This build was inspired by Tinkernut’s 3d printer.

The Main Parts I Used:

2 Wii Optical Drives : Got these from broken Wii consoles.

A Dell Computer Cd Drive : Got from old broken computer.

A 3D Printing Pen : http://www.ebay.com/itm/182218486810

An Arduino Uno R3 Knock Off : https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=arduino+uno+r3
