i'm so confused :mindblown::lupe:

C'mon breh you know the 3d stork story. Mommy printer and daddy printer love each other and 9 months later the stork brings a 3d printer.

This is usually the part where my cousin asks "so how did the stork know when the mom fukked the dad?"

:manny:

no, but..
check your local library
mine charges $0.10 per gram
they print anything off thingiverse
or a small charge if i have a unique design (.stl format)

printed some small things as a test
now i'm currently working on a prototype for a new invention

other option is to join a hackerspace
one place wanted $100/month for full membership
supposedly they could promise me some dedicated hours each month
but the library employee is helpful so i'm going that way (for now)

I want to start a business selling something (can't go into specifics obvious). Initially I wanted to have it made in China but you have to go through alot of bullshyt (hidden fees, scammers, a manufacturer who doesn't know what he's doing, etc.). I was hoping to look for a US-based person/company who can 3D print stuff for cheap.
