bought 1 of these printers two weeks ago and fell in love. 3d printing is a new addiction of mine now as i 3d print my own drones. the printer at gearbest is on offer now too so not sure how long there stock will last. hope this deal can help someone

i get mine off ebay. its roughly £10 per roll. start with PLA plastic 1st as abs can be tricky to print with due to warping as the plastic cools

How much Customs Duty and VAT did you get charged for the printer, if at all??

what kind of stuff have you made so far? I love gadgets but I'm afraid it will just sit there

I like that it comes in a big kit and should be fun to put together. Should allow you to add mods like in the video.

This one has an acrylic frame and I wonder how robust that will be.

I think they should make it using a 3D printer. that would be amazing

Yeah it will crack over time, buts it's a standard i3 frame IIRC so should be easy to replace or upgrade to metal one.
Lots of the parts can be printed but it's cheaper, quicker and more robust to make the frame out of aluminium or laser cut acrylic or wood.
Also you can only print parts upto 200x200 mm!
