Build your own Mini Metal Maker: 3D print with metal clay, ceramic, chocolate, stem cells, or whatever!

Good build manual except some pictures / drawings are too light to read and instructions refer to color items that are in black and white/gray. Could use a few more diagrams. Plan to send comments to authors.Worth the money.

This book helped me rethink what a 3D printer is; plastic fillament is just one of many possibilities and the book describes an interesting alternativ. I study the Reprap 3D printer but it's over-complicated and amatour like construction is not a way to make good 3D printers. These printers on the other hand, with its simplicity and low building cost is a perfect entry level 3D printer (that can easely be rebuilt to a fillament printer for that case). A downside with this book is that its relatively prizy for such a thin book, maybe it's also over-detailed in all it's mounting descriptios. The book makes a good overview of the different software needed from 3D modelig software to 3D slizers, and the list of all the different tools makes it worth buying alone.

This is a very thin book. It assumes that you already have a 3D printer to make the required parts. It has some blurry photos to illustrate a few (mostly obvious) points, but is particularly vague about the absolutely crucial extruder element. Basically, it seems that you buy a syringe and hack it so that perhaps it might work (that's about the same level of detail as the book). It also requires that you use a very specific part number for the motors. Are there alternatives? You're on your own. Very disappointing.

built this machine with the help of this book very clear instuctions,easy to follow,
