What's the most key point when you decide to get a 3d printer?

stephenleeeyan

As the title said, what's the key point when you want to get your first 3d printer? Speed or others?

  • 3D printer requirements:

    • it must be able to change filament in the middle of a print
    • it must have auto bed levelling
    • it must have a heated bed made of a material that will release the print when it cools off
    • it must have accessible components, easy to service
    • it should be very quiet

    After that look for the biggest, stiffest printer you can afford.

    Note that enclosed printers can be hard to service. If you need an enclosure, build one that is easily removed.
