Pretty ballsy for a European-American

People tend to forget the full saying, so just for posterity:

A few bad apples ruin the bunch

If 99% of the “wood” they used was lumber and not laminated compressed sawdust and cardboard, that would make sense

Prices can vary wildly depending on how simple or advanced you go. A classic, tried-and-true Ender 3 can be found for $100 in some places, and something like a Bambu X1 Carbon can go for $1,400.

If you’re just starting out and don’t want to invest most of your free time to tweaking and maintaining a bare ones printer, look into something like the Bambu P1P. Not top end, definitely not low end, and does a lot of the tedium for you so you can go right into enjoying 3D printing.

Displates and 3D printed art for me.
