The world of 3D printing is not for the faint of heart. Even good people tend to act up sometimes. If you’re interested in trying the hobby and finding Black Friday deals, Sean Hollister of our sister site The Verge found some deals that even “lazy bums” think are great.
According to my former colleague Sean, who prints all kinds of things on his 3D printer (from Nerf gun replicas and figurines to generously printing ear protection for every employee’s face masks at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic), the Bambu P1P is “the most They call it “an easy product.” The most reliable 3D printer according to our May 2024 reviews. It normally costs $699, but you can get it for $449 on the company’s website. The sale lasts until December 3rd at 3am ET, with discounts on Bambu’s filament and accessories.
Sean’s 3D printer use cases are just the tip of the iceberg. You can print anything you model in your 3D modeling software, and you can even print anything you have a file for. More and more companies are releasing STL files of their miniatures in the tabletop world, allowing people to turn them into real creations with nothing more than a 3D printer. That’s the case trench crusadersThe recently released miniature skirmish game and Modiphius’ Fallout: Wasteland War miniature.
Some progressive gaming accessory companies, including Mechanism and dbrand, provide 3D printer files to help people get more out of their products. Dbrand has posted free downloads for a universal mount for the Project Killswitch case for the Steam Deck and Asus ROG Ally to help gamers easily connect to their consoles. Mechanism offers free files for most of its products.
