Hi all, I want to buy my son a 3D printer for his 20th birthday. He is a third year computer science major, so has no issues with the software side. I have no idea where to start, or even what questions to ask. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for this, I’m impressed by Bambus’ quality but I’ve always been highly suspect of the true cost of their “turnkey” operation and appliance-like nature.

    It was making me sad seeing people just recommending them left and right even though it seemed like a huge step backward from all the hackerspace community-spirit innovation we’ve been seeing with 3D printing.

    I’m really glad to see people pushing against that and advising people to consider the ramifications. <3
