3D Printers & Tie-Fighter Costumes

Post by 951 »

Does anyone have any suggestions on 3D printers that are reasonably priced and can print parts successfully that pass 501st guidelines? Also, does anyone have any suggestions on how to create the chest and back plate as light weight as possible? :TI2

Thanks!

Look at the CR-10S and CR-10S4. I hear the S5 has some issues.

I am in the process of printing the OT pilot armors and helmet. I use a JGmaker A5S, but it takes quite a bit of mod to get a nice print from it. I'd also recommend going with the CR-10 if you are just starting out.
