About Me:
I am a drone enthusiast and 3D printing expert. I enjoy fusing the two technologies together to make truly unique designs.
Please tell us a bit about your UAV interest
Began shooting aerial photography back in 2008. Worked on several movie and commercial sets, but now do it more as a hobby.

"Gary,
Very well-said. I couldn't agree more. In saying that, I think something like this wouldn't disappoint completely, and may print some useful parts. I really believe it depends on the manufacturer to educate properly, and good education will…"

"This is not bad for the money. I am very experienced in FFF technology and work for a large 3D printer manufacturer. It may not give you results you are looking for, but it will print ABS and provide useful 3D printed parts. It does have a small…"
"The 3mm has less binding issues in most extruders. Our printer uses a bowden tube, so it is important we use thicker filaments here especially, as there is more material between the drive motor and extruder, so binding can be an issue. We have a TPU…"
"This works in most desktop printers. Works better in the 3mm form. Our Airwolf 3D HD handles it well."
"I agree. Without the weave I would rather just use a plastic material. Most printers with good quality extruders which can handle higher temps can already extrude this material whether it has been tested or not. If they make it in a filament, and…"
"Awesome!"
"Very cool on the video chat. I will do a walk-through of my facility. We have over 20 printers running at any given time, printing parts for new printers. I can also do some tutorials, etc."
"I have printed nylon. The printable nylon available unfortunately is far from perfect, but I do use it for certain parts.
There are several ways to do support material. I find that creating it within your 3D model is the best way.

"You really have to pay attention to the specs in order to get good prints. It is hard to say which printer is best, but I can give you specs to keep in mind when shopping for a printer.

"If you need any help at all please let me know. I will upload some projects soon."
"Oh thank you I will check it out!"
This is my first post on DIYdrones, but I am not new to the site or the technology. Like most of you, I have been a drone enthusiast, and have had an interest, as well as some kind of involvement with RC for the past decade. With the new…
