Well… do you? |

Nope. Not yet. Maybe when they make an affordable home system that has good quality resolution, but that won't be anytime soon. |

My son does and I have to put up with the smell of melting plastic. Does that count? It's pretty cool but requires a ton of technical know how to really make it work well. He built his from a kit a few years back and paid about $700 USD for it. Not real great at printing miniatures, but awesome for repair parts, and one off materials for his electronics projects. He did print a model of the ACW ironclad Monitor which turned out pretty darn cool. |

No…when they get cheaper and simpler, probably…. |

Any document you print is in 3D….. I'm waiting for the Matter Replicator upgrade. |
Rottcodd | 23 Jun 2015 8:13 p.m. PST |
Waiting till they are cheaper, and print mini's in color with shading… |

I own 2. They are both good enough to print gameable models, but neither is pro grade. Basically they are a step between the maker bots and the expensive pro models. Both are deposition printers with one capable of 100 micron layers, and the other 20. |

I want a world-class, French, or sourdough crust pizza oven model, in addition to one that can make high quality castings in plastic, and metal. Wonder if they can design that all in one package? |

cost:value ratio too high currently. |

Yes, one off a Kickstater, about $300 USD + $100 USD extras. Still not exactly productive. |

Is on my to buy list. Am looking at it to turn out models that are needed but are too few or too obscure to be produced by professional model companies. example: 1/300 scale steam engines for German/Russian/French railroads of WWII. They make the armored engines for the armored trains but no one makes the standard train engines. |

Yes, M3D kick starter. Using it to learn how to do things. |

No waiting for better speed/quality/price ratio, for a large library of models to become available and the software becomes easier to use. |
