We have the best practices and tips when it comes to choosing the right 3D printer for you.
Segment Goals:
Find a real-world problem Beg, Borrow and Steal as much as you can! (A STL model that gets us CLOSE to the solution) Modify an existing STL to fit our needs Revision Thingiverse Tinkercad 3D Printer Cooler Master (69CFM - 19db - 12v) (~$8) Artic F12 (5 pack - 74CFM - 25db - 1,350 rpm - 5-12 volt operation) (~$4/each) 6" Ducting $18 Search for and download a STL file for an object that can interface with a 120mm fan Create a suitable duct collar Mate the Duct Collar with the STL file Print!

"Bacon" is what happens when your extruded material cools, shrinks, and pulls off the printing surface. There are a variety of solutions to this problem including:
Heated printing surfaces (So that the print cools EVENLY) Insulating your print area (to decrease the thermal variance across the print) Aquanet (Unsented Extra Super Hold) ~$22 for 6 Glue Stick $1 I love me some Hatchbox filament! ~$23/KG Don't forget to get yourself a Filament holder. ~$10 These show notes have been truncated due to length.
