Hi @Spitfire, Yes electronics can be a nightmare and very fiddly but as you have said it generally comes down to research. We are currently putting together a series of articles on how to build your own 3D printer, we are only on part 2 - sourcing the parts ( https://www.idig3dprinting.co.uk/news/bu...

Thanks for the review @spitfire. As a maker of things did you consider trying to make your own 3D printer?

Thanks for the info

Greetings all, We have been putting together a guide to building your own 3D printer. We are writing a series of articles to take people through that process and we are using a Prusa i3 rework as an example. Currently we are on part 2 - Buying your 3D printer parts . We haven't quite finished buying...

It appears that Makerbot are in legal trouble over whether they new about the failings of the original release of their Smart extruder.

Do you have a Makerbot replicator that employs the Smart extruder? What are you experiences? If you had problems how did you get around it?

If it is a genuine request then we can help by posting a link to your request on our social media channels. I am not saying that this will resolve the issue but it might help. Could you tell me where you are based, not your address but a confirmation of country and town might help, that way we might...

Can I ask, why are you getting rid of it?

You could try putting it here as well on our 3D printing Google+ community

The as with a lot of US government science organisations, have a great ethos towards sharing information. Time to build up that collection of satellites?

We have just put together a list of resources for 3D printer model files, mainly file sharing websites but also some resources around the sharing of .STL files. If you have any comments please feel free to add. Also tell us about sites that you have found useful and maybe we can include it in the li...

I think just wait for the flood of similar services. There is a large market opening up of 3D printed likeness making. If you look at the fuel3d scanify there entire marketing is based upon scanning peoples faces.
