Blog Post #3: 3D Printing and Its Commercial Construction<
<Hyper:> Hello everyone and welcome back to the third blog post on Hyperchats.net! By the title states, this blog post talks about 3D printing and what it is. 3D printing is the process where you turn a 3D design like STL files into reality using piping hot PLA. To make a 3D design, you can use software like Blender, Fusion 360, or Tinker CAD if you are a beginner. I personally use Blender to make models like below(Fig. 1) into a holdable object. Once you are done making your design, you get the STL files over to your slicer like Cura or Creality Cloud depending on your printer. Once you export the GCode files to the printer, you can sit back and relax and watch the masterpiece come to life! There are other things to put into consideration like; what filament color/type would you want? How would I ventilate the burning plastic out of my house? If you are genuinely interested in giving a go of 3D printing, the pricing and safety concerns do come into play. So, where do you start? I would highly suggest buying the Entina Basic printer (180$!) and the Creality K1 SE (280$) if you have a bigger wallet. The filament I would highly suggest to start of is PLA.
<Hyper:> Now then, what are the usages of 3D Printing? You can earn TONS of money off of it like on Etsy people are buying prints left right and center! Gifts are also a walk in the park because you can crank out a gift in record breaking speeds and it can mean a lot! You can make fidget toys that are a blast to play with and the quality is surreal! You can also make models you like on the internet from websites like Makerworld to get models if your not as experienced. So that means you could turn an object like this…
<Hyper:> If you need any tips, I might post more on my Makerworld Account or on Hyperchats.net. But for now see you on Hyperchats and have a great day. This isn’t a password: k0-Fi.c0m/hyp3rsh0t777
