When it comes to searching for the best 3D printers, you want a piece of technology that is durable, affordable, and capable of printing high quality 3D objects. With this in mind, there are several things you should consider when you’re searching for a 3D printer that suits all your needs.
For starters, there are several different types of plastic that you can use to print your objects. Each type of plastic has different advantages and capabilities. Do you want a printer that’s capable of printing with a host of exotic materials, like LayWood, LayBrick, and Ninjaflex, in addition to standard ABS, PLA, and HIPS plastics? How fast would you like to print, and what kind of Computer Aided Design (CAD) software would you prefer to use? Finding the best 3D printer depends on what you want to print.
