Good Day Crew!

Does anyone know the make and model of Dan’s 3D Printer?

Yes that’s right but the rebate was over in December. Unless they have a new one.

Lol Dan!

If you have the cash and like going to HD. They have the Makerbot brand. Way more expensive only one extrusion and pla. Built in camera and slight level up from dreamer. You would be better getting the flashforge 3D pro. Still the dreamer is the best entry printer out there. In my opinion.

Been wanting one for a long time LOL, I been looking at the Ultimaker 2 – but that one is $2500+ A 3D printer would be a great addition to my modeling bench.  With a 3D printer, and resin casting the possibilities will be endless. On another note, been looking into building a HO scale slot car track from scratch out of wood for the Grandson. So the idea of custom 3D printed car bodies would be a nice extra.

I have a nice collection of hand carved elephants in my cubicle at work, from my visiting co-workers from India, so yeah would love to add a 3D printed elephant to the collection LOL. 

Yea that would be perfect and awesome to have, I used to build a lot of model tanks growing up, 3D printer would be so cool to have at your disposal.

Below are a few of my tanks, besides Model Railroad building, I like military modeling the most.  They are not 100% complete yet, still have to add some finishing touches.

I love WW2 models, my biggest project was a Tiger I tank.

I got a velleman Vertex k8400 3d printer just a week ago 🙂

Its a self build kit. Building it yas been alot of fun already 😀 I only got the basic package but possible optional upgrades are a heated bed and a second extruder/printhead 🙂

Those will be added somewhere in the future 🙂

This is Dan’s theme song now that he’s addicted to printing elephants

Bahahah!!
