Re: Anyone got a 3D printer?



Hello, Phil.

Happy New Year!

I have a FlashForge Dreamer for over a year now. It is a great toy to play=
=20
with.

I originally bought it, apart from evulation, for designing some better=20
floor vents for the HVAC system that I have installed in my extended=20
house. However, like many things, I have only managed to get one
designed=20
by my son and printed in orange plastic.

It is an ongoing project, of course!
