When it comes to 3D printing, filament diameter might seem like a small detail — but it plays a big role in print quality, extrusion performance, and even hardware compatibility. Choosing the right diameter can affect everything from layer resolution…
As you level up in 3D printing, you’ll quickly find that PLA, ABS, and PETG can’t do it all. Need something flexible? Heat-resistant? Glow-in-the-dark? That’s where advanced materials like TPU, Nylon, and exotic filaments step in. These aren’t just flashy…
Choosing the right 3D printing filament can be the difference between a successful, clean print and a warped, cracked mess. While there are dozens of materials out there, three stand out as the most popular and accessible for most desktop…
3D printing is more than just owning a printer and loading up some filament. To consistently produce clean, accurate, and reliable prints — and avoid common headaches — you need a full set of tools covering everything from setup to…
When most people hear “3D printing,” they picture a desktop machine slowly drawing shapes in melted plastic. And yeah — that’s a huge part of it. But 3D printing is more than just a plastic noodle machine. It’s a whole…
3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, is a process of creating three-dimensional objects by adding material layer by layer based on a digital model. Unlike traditional subtractive methods, where material is carved or cut away, additive manufacturing builds objects…
So you just got your first 3D printer—nice! But let’s be real: unboxing a giant piece of machinery with wires, moving parts, and no idea what does what? That can be intimidating. Don’t worry. This guide is designed to walk…
If you’re getting into FDM 3D printing, or even if you’ve been around the block and are looking for your next machine, chances are you’ve come across two names: the Anycubic Kobra 2 Neo and the Bambu Lab A1. I’ve…
The 3D printing scene got a serious shake-up in 2022 when newcomers like Bambu Lab and AnkerMake dropped ultra-fast printers out of nowhere. That set off a speed race, and now users are expecting faster machines across the board—without breaking…
3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, is a process of creating three-dimensional objects by depositing material layer by layer based on a digital model. Unlike traditional manufacturing methods such as CNC machining or injection molding — which are subtractive…
