Hello,

I can introduce you to the Witbox. How about 8pm?

Philipp

Hi everyone,

I'm interested in trying out some 3D printing for the first time. I have some basic models put together in tinkercad. I know it's maybe not a great tool, but it's very quick to start with. I've also managed to get Slic3r to generate a RepRap print path.
I just wondered if someone would be around to chat about the printer in Metalab and the whole process in general some time. Perhaps even this afternoon/evening?

Thanks in advance!

Fabio
