Just checking comparing this to pottery, thinner/less plastic, or metal…
Or did I miss something by considering the waste from PROTOTYPING everything via spools of plastic? Like I was just talking about planters but if you like, you really have me wondering… what about all the excess plastics prototyping other things… how familiar are you with all that plastic coming off the 3d printing industry? Did I miss something about all this plastic?
We would all be better off knowing what you know. What did I miss?
You’re right about the plastic, but just drop the enlightened snark.
As for pottery, forging, casting etc.: completely different processes, different requirements, “vibe” - may not be possible for OP (ever tried operating a forge in a New York city apartment?), might not be aligned with their skills / interests, financial situation etc.
So, what remains is the question: do you believe 3d printing with plastic should be outlawed or at least strongly regulated as a private hobby?
You may be right…
