YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT 3D PRINTERS. I THINK THIS IS GONNA BLOW YOUR MIND. MY 3D PRINTER WAS LESS THAN $230. Look at her go!! SPOOLS OF FILAMENT ARE FROM BETWEEN 10 TO 25 DOLLARS AND THEY LAST A LONG TIME. AND YOU CAN MAKE SO MANY THINGS EVEN IF YOU HAVE NO DESIGN EXPERIENCE. YOU CAN ALSO DO IT ALL FROM YOUR PHONE. I HAVE THE BAMBOO A1 MINI AND MY BROTHER GAVE IT TO ME FOR CHRISTMAS. IT TRULY IS LIKE I FEEL LIKE A LITTLE KID LIKE I HAVE A NEW TOY. EVEN IF YOU HAVE NO DESIGN EXPERIENCE, YOU CAN JUST GO ONTO THE BAMBOO HANDY APP AND CLICK PRINT RIGHT FROM YOUR APP AND SOMETHING WILL PRINT OUT THERE. YOU CAN MAKE FIDGET TOYS. LIKE I PRINTED THIS. I DID NOT DESIGN THIS. I JUST HIT PRINT. ANY EXPERIENCE WITH DOING 2D DESIGN? LIKE I KNOW HOW TO USE ILLUSTRATOR. YOU CAN USE THAT TO MAKE SOME STUFF. SO FOR EXAMPLE, I'M HELPING MY NEIGHBOR MAKE SOME, UH, PRICE TAGS FOR A CRAFT FAIR, AND I JUST DESIGNED THIS IN ILLUSTRATOR, AND THEN I PULLED IN THE SVG FILES AND CHANGED THE DEPTH. WITH MY PRINTER. AND I DON'T HAVE AN AMS, WHICH IS LIKE HOW YOU SWITCH COLORS. BUT EVEN IF YOU DON'T HAVE THAT, JUST WITH THE STARTER PRINTER YOU CAN SWITCH COLORS. WHAT I REALLY LOVE ABOUT IT IS IT EASY ENTRY? YOU DON'T NEED ANY SKILLS TO START, BUT THEN THE RABBIT HOLE IS SO DEEP. LIKE I'M STARTING TO LEARN TO 3D MODEL BECAUSE I WANNA BE ABLE TO MAKE CUSTOM STUFF. 3D PRINTERS ARE NOT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS. THEY ARE LESS THAN 300, INCLUDING FILAMENT. TAKE THIS AS A SIGN TOO, NOT SLEEP ON 3D PRINTERS, OKAY?

You know nothing about 3D printers. I think this is gonna blow your mind. My 3D printer was less than $230. Look at her go! Spools of filament are from between 10 to 25 dollars and they last a long time. And you can make so many things even if you have no design experience. You can also do it all from your phone. I have the Bamboo A1 Mini and my brother gave it to me for Christmas. It truly is like I feel like a little kid like I have a new toy. Even if you have no design experience, you can just go onto the Bamboo Handy app and click print right from your app and something will print out there. You can make fidget toys like I printed this. I did not design this. I just hit print. Any experience with doing 2D design like I know how to use Illustrator, you can use that to make some stuff. So for example, I'm helping my neighbor make some, uh, price tags for a craft fair, and I just designed this in Illustrator, and then I pulled in the SVG files and changed the depth with my printer. And I don't have an AMS, which is like how you switch colors. But even if you don't have that, just with the starter printer you can switch colors. What I really love about it is it easy entry? You don't need any skills to start, but then the rabbit hole is so deep. Like I'm starting to learn to 3D model because I wanna be able to make custom stuff. 3D printers are not thousands of dollars. They are less than 300, including filament. Take this as a sign too, not sleep on 3D printers, okay?
