Just an idea; I work in sheetmetal; interested in trying to make some of this out of aluminum?

My maker gear rocks, I love it!

Just wondering, is upgrading to V4 worth it?

What makes it better? What do I do with my now obsolete extruder?

Thanks guys!

Huh cool idea; may try that tonight

Yes just like the article shows

Any suggestions on getting the filament through the sharpie? Keeping getting stuck!

Cool; I have tried 3 markers now but could not get the filament through without it getting stuck; any tips to help me? My hands are now covered in ink!

Came across an article that shows you how to color pla before printing to get different colors

http://3dprintboard.com/showthread.php? ... nt-Colorer

Haven't been able to test yet; but has anyone else tried this or another way to color pla before it prints?

On a side note if I wanted to get color fabb in the US, where is the best place to buy it?

I wanted to try and do some metal prints, but don't really have the money for color fab metalfill

Is there any other brand of metal fill that works well? I mainly just need to be able to polish it to look like an actual piece made of metal

Any help would be great!

Thanks!

Being a noob anyone care to share their simple3d abs file?
