The Cube 3 is a cute 3D printer to say the least

2015-02-05
hi guys wz and this is the q3 3d printer form 3d system q3 because is a third generation of the printer that looked like a cube now this one here is a dual extruder it means it can print from two sources of filaments at the same time do you see them exactly this one has a great design so that the filament when loaded still make it very compact on the side here there is a catch with that whole filament inside and it fit in this holder perfectly the same for the other side and on top you can also very easily install the filament on to the printhead yeah that's how a 3d printer works the printhead pulls the plastic string melted and extrude that onto the platform underneath here to form the 3d object now the platform here is removable and that's mean is it very easy for you to clean it after a print or lace it with glue before you print on the front here the printer has a small touch screen for you to manage its function including printing and on this side here it has a USB port for you to print directly from a thumb drive a 2 gigabyte thumb drive is included but you can also use any thumb drive you want now the thing I like the most about this picture is the fact that it can calibrate itself basically you can make sure that the print platform is at the perfect distance from the pre head above and also perfectly level the second cool thing that the print platform here can move up and down also backward and forward allowing the printhead about to move only side way and that mechanism allows the printer to be small in physical size but can still bring pretty large object and speaking of object the printer worked really well printing small object like this lovely Toro right here but when it comes to bigger object like this vase it was a hit or miss for example I try to bring another vase this one right here now this one is a 15 hour job so I left the printer working overnight when I get back in the morning well we've made this at first and then it made all this not what I wanted now the thing is that it actually made all this much perfectly and then it's mess up the rest and that mean I have no idea what happened it worked then didn't work one thing for sure though this is a lot of filmin being wasted and that's not cool because each of the capture is costing $50 and only has enough material to bring about Phi of this large object so I'm holding here is about $10 worth of material and that's of course after the cost of the printer itself which is $1,000 now that's not cheap but it's also not too expensive for a dual extruder so you know the q3 here is quite a good picture to have it's fun and very easy to use even though it's a bit noisy but remember it might cost you a lot Dowdle i choose for the material alone from all the printer here check out my full review cnet.com personally I liked it because at least if we might add me of my lovely hair or the like of which and that's because I'm dumb low and this has been the first look at the q3 3d printer form 3d systems I don't look at wig out of this
