      Hi all
      just by accident I got an email for a 3d DIY printer for $165 US.
      (Geeetech prusa 3i clone)GearBest.com
      They had me 😎 πŸ‘ πŸ‘ and my $$$ in an instant.
      Surprise from China
      Quick shipping and delivery.
      Very nice and precise machining and parts and nothing was missing or failed to work.
      Took almost a day to put it together but it had excellent info and vids for the build.
      I added a Bowden extruder and got very lucky for help with settings and filaments from a neighbor here in Lake Forest Calif MatterHackers.com
      They market a full line of printers, filaments and parts for 3d devices.
      Very special gang that have helped me get up and printing as a drop in to their store for help.
      Do not miss their slicer software (MatterControl $19 US donation and worth much more)for an easy way to understand and get good prints.
      Even includes a quick and easy setup for bed leveling.
      Just a piece of excellent software and really nice interface.
      They also have a big library of 3d tech info.
      Very special people and good friends too.

      I am an Architect here in Mission Viejo and feel free to ask for help to connect with MatterHackers or my marginal knowledge on the DIY side of 3d print stuff.
      😲 😲 😲
      Maybe we might have a thread for the low budget print people.
