3D Printers

3D printers are designed for a very different purpose than traditional printers which only work with paper. In contrast, 3D printers use an additive manufacturing process where successive layers of material are laid down on top of each other to build true 3D dimension objects. In this guide we’ll show you how to pick the perfect 3D printer for your home or office, walking you through all you need to know starting with the benefits and limitations of 3D printers, what they are good for and how they work. The guide also covers print resolution, features, size, how to connect a 3D printer to your device(s) and what filaments are best for different jobs.
