Purchasing your First 3D Printer (FDM/FFF)

Everything you've ever wanted to know about FFF 3D Printers!

A video course by Angus Deveson of Maker's Muse.

About the Course

Do you want to get into 3D Printing but don’t know where to start?

Are you ready to make the leap and purchase a 3D Printer of your very own, but overwhelmed by the amount of options available?

Then this course is for you!

Learn how to source the perfect 3D Printer for Work, Education or Hobby use.

Discover how FDM/FFF 3D Printers work, what makes them move and how they're manufactured.

Cut through the marketing jargon and learn about the many 3D Printer features and how they affect print quality, material compatibility, price and more.

This 3hr video course is aimed at newcomers to 3D Printing as well as those who have used 3D Printers before and are looking to acquire one of their own.

This video course is focused on filament-based 3D Printer technology (FFF/FDM) and does not cover purchasing considerations for resin based 3D Printers (SLA/MSLA). I do not recommend resin 3D Printers for beginners.

ADDITIONAL CONTENT COMING SOON: Incoming content to include 3D Printer setup, bed leveling, proper filament loading and how to slice for 3D Printing. Due for release May 2020.

NOTE: Course price to increase once additional content is published so make sure to grab it before the changes!
