i'm thinking of getting a Solidoodle for my b-day

they're based out of Brooklyn and they seem legitimate.
 

Id love to buy a 3D print from you if I could

What size print and what is it

Wow, that's cool.
How much did that thing cost you? I wanna know the range.

Also, isn't that print material expensive too?
Basically: What are the expenses on that thing?

The printer i have cost around 780 USD. Its a cheaper printer but it gets results.

Material depends on the type of material. If its PLA you're looking at a small difference from the price of ABS spools, usually in the 20-30 dollar range. Expensive yes, but they make up for that by taking very little filament to make large strong prints.

You're going to be investing about $1000 dollars into this thing depending on how much you put towards filament.

Finished half that dragon priest mask i had been wanting to do



Sadly the other half would cost me too much material to make, plus that and the mask doesn't fit.



.27 mm layer height, slowest print in the world. took about 13 hours to make till about midday today.

at .01 mm you wouldn't know this thing was printed.

So about as much as my computer?
Okay. Sounds in my range.
I might go for a bigger size though.

Hey Taya, check your PMs, I sent you a link to a .STL file that I made, if you want to print it out. ;)

There must be some sort of error. I have received no PM.

My mistake. Just got it.

could you make this? idk how id pay you, so don't do anything until i can arrange payment.
but id really like this doesn't matter the size, its too bad it will come out all red though

heres what i want to accomplish:

you can remedy that by painting it. I'll set up a paypal or something like that for commissions. I got a printer too :3

Which dragon priest mask are you making AKA what are you gonna color it? Unless I misread something about not being able to paint it or something.

I wasn't at first able to get the whole mask printed so i had to cut it in half. It still didn't come out the right size. Painting it would not be a problem. Also dragon priest mask is just dragn priest mask. I don't think its meant to be any of em.

I know you can, but I'm really bad at stuff like that. How much would it cost for me to get one, the size I showed in the picture? I'm 14, so I don't have a whole lot of money

it'd barely be a dollar considering the size. But don't listen to locke, he'll charge you a billion bukcs
