If you are interested in 3D printing you likely looked into it a few years ago and decided that it was both too expensive and too difficult.  Back then you needed to understand Computer Aided Design (CAD) and 3D printers cost thousands of dollars.  This has changed.

We just purchased a ‘da Vinci Mini’ 3D printer though Amazon for just CDN $260.  Note that we paid full price and were not paid a commission or even a link fee… this is not an advert for XYZ, just straight facts.  We set it up in minutes, printed tones of cool stuff and even figured out how to clean the print head.

Below are 4 short videos explaining everything you need to know about inexpensive 3D printing at home or in an office:

[…] 3D printing is a process that allows for the creation of objects from a computer design. The three dimensional object is created from thin layers of material, which are built on top of each other to create the final product. This technology has been around since 1984, when Chuck Hull developed and patented stereolithography. However, it was only recently in 2009 that patents were approved for fused deposition modelling (FDM). Now, 3D printing is being used in many industries including medicine, engineering, aerospace, and industrial design. […]
