This is very interesting for printing metal parts and even machining metal parts. I have an FDM plastic printer at home but some parts need to be in metal. Here is a fantastic opportunity. Thanks for the info !
Reasons I have not bought a 3D printer yet 1) I must be able to design my own parts 2) "...if you are printing something that will take 24 hrs and it crashes after 15 hrs..." 3) the cost were so expensive for the size you are limited with These companies have the latest equipment, materials, etc. You helped me with learning FreeCAD. I need content for what (allowances) I need design with for things that will be inserted or slide or ? Thanks! G_Dub
I will definitely produce some content that show that. It definitely depends on the manufacturing process, with laser or cnc router you are definitely looking at different tolerances to 3D printing.
Thank you, Yes I feel more confident with CNC metals and allowance for expansion/contraction whereas all the different types of plastics available for just a single "what you going to use it for" and how do you keep up? Now being able to ask suppliers questions is a must along with asking your supplier for 3D printing... I really enjoy your teaching methology!

That's what I thought too!
Are you teaching to use a website?
No, I am showing how I used a service. It's a way to get your stuff made if you can't make it yourself.

@@GDub1958 Yeah, it's definitely something you have to pay attention to. For the most part, I 3D print PLA.
