What is the 3D printing community/group looking for?

I just wanted to get the communities opinion on what would be of useful content to have.  With the 3D Printing 101 courses being put on hold because of unfortunate events i would be willing to put something together.  Now this could be anything related to printing.  From how-to, maybe new product reviews, training courses...  Let me hear your thoughts.

    I think the lack of activity in the 3D printing area is down to two factors: Relatively few people have a 3D printer (or access to one). There are a few good dedicated 3D printing community web-spaces…

    Paul, I agree with you. What has blocked me until now was just what was the case to write, or what was just useless approach. I read and follow a lot of different 3D printing communities and what is my…

    I'm currently building a 3D printer from various bought and salvaged bits in an attempt to justify my hoarding of ripped apart, printers, scanners and other stuff.  I've joined and followed a lot of groups and then just started bodging it together!  There are guides out there from various contributors and some of these could be referenced or pulled in with permission.  Experiences with different materials,diagnosing and solving problems seen while printing, software independent design guides for printing and designing parts ( I use solidworks or onshape, the latter because it's free as long as you have a decent internet connection!) 

    Comparisons of different slicers, firmware and electronics are out there and are on Google,  but any new info for me would be good.

     

    Currently running Repetier host, ramps 1.4, marlin and half a hacked together printer.

     

    If anybody is interested I can put some links up to what I've done. I have some bit's on line at the moment but just to show friends, rather than being properly formatted!

    I agree Enrico.  The more content we can get the more interaction we will have from the community.  Maybe even spark some good conversation.
