✅ Best 3D Printers Under $1000 in 2022 ➡️ Top 5 Tested & Buying Guide

Product Description:

Number 1. Elegoo Mars 2 Pro If you are just getting started with resin 3D printing, you will find that you have an overwhelming number of options to choose from, each with a different price point. The good news for people just starting out is that quality does not have to come at the expense of their budget. You can get your hands on the intuitive Mars 2 Pro for as little as $200 if you look hard enough.

Number 2. Anycubic Kobra The Anycubic Kobra is the ideal 3D printer for you if you are searching for a machine that is not only simple to use but also produces high-quality prints. a fun hobby. Because it is so simple to put together, you can start printing within half an hour of taking it out of the box.

Number 3. Anycubic Kobra Plus The Anycubic Kobra Plus has your back when you need a little more space than the average 3D printer. The Kobra Plus is a great tool for big projects because it has a large 300 x 300 x 350mm build volume and a nearly perfect auto bed leveling system. The Kobra Plus is priced competitively at $499, and it has a light Bowden extruder and a Volcano-style hot end to make printing faster.

Number 4. Anycubic Vyper The Anycubic Vyper is made for high-throughput 3D printing, and its rock-solid build and long list of features really impressed us. The Vyper is a good choice for anyone who wants to print out a lot of parts because it has features like silent stepper drivers, dual Z threaded rods, and a high-air flow part cooling system.

Number 5. Phrozen Sonic Mini 4K The Phrozen Sonic Mini 4K should be on your shortlist if you want to print models with a lot of fine detail. The Sonic Mini 4K uses a 4K mono LCD screen to print high resolution models with a per-layer cure time of slightly over 2 seconds per layer. This translates to excellent detail and speed, but the price gap between the Sonic Mini 4K and comparable MSLA 3D printers like the Anycubic Photon is significant.

I think you should read webcomics but I also think you should challenge yourself about it, go find that odd creation that's out there because one horny lady once thought it was cool or a dude was giving his first shot at a story and it came all wrong or they tried to do it traditional and their only medium was pencil and printer paper. Maybe if you like reading romance on webtoons you can go look at comic fury and see someone's nightmare of a comic or maybe you like sci-fi and there's someone on tapas drawing the sexiest priest ever who will finally not bore you. Maybe all you've read are Hiveworks webcomics when The Duck comics are right there and maybe that comic that's using only 3D assets that turned you off at first really has the most compelling writing you'll see this year. It's easy to say "read more webcomics" and give you the same three suggestions or collectives over and over. The net is vast and infinite and so is the array of human creation.

Maybe start with a random one. And then keep jumping

ELEGOO Neptune 3 Pro FDM 3D Printer #REVIEW Unleash your creativity #printer #creativity @Elegoo_Official

Unleash your creativity with the powerful ELEGOO Neptune 3 Pro FDM 3D Printer. I have been crafting and building things my whole life. Several years ago I decided it was time to jump on the 3D printing craze. “Jump into” is actually an understatement. Initially, I did my research and decided on a machine that I thought would suit my budget and needs. What I didn’t anticipate was the need for an…

So... Shapeways is going bankrupt.

This is particularly irksome for me, as that's a good 1/3rd of my monthly income, so I'm crossing my fingers while I start setting up a new store on cults. I have literally thousands of items so getting them all up is going to take ages.

But why did this happen?

Well I'll fucking tell you what I think happened.

It was a company run on arrogance and cowardice.

Shapeways made its mark as the cafepress of 3d printing. The weight of this was their marketplace that let people sell prints directly to customers without having to do the printing themselves. At its peak, I made more from Shapeways than from my day job.

The problem was that Shapeways put zero effort into the marketplace. They'd send some of us to a con to promote the idea of 3d printing game minis a couple of times, sure, but when it came to actual site maintenance and design every suggestion and request by sellers was roundly ignored. We asked for better search and categorization options. We asked to be able to name variants in our stores. We asked for better communication from the print techs. We asked for accurate subcategories that actually reflected how customers looked for items. None of it was done.

As such, the site was baffling to customers and difficult to understand. This was made worse by Shapeways' continual renaming of their materials. So after a couple of years Shapeways announces that they're not going to do anything for the marketplace because it's underperforming, and are going to focus on B2B, and in doing so they buried the marketplace in a tiny little link on the front page.

Overnight sales plummeted. We complained again, nothing was done. We asked for a different URL that went straight to the marketplace (something that would literally cost them $80 to do) that we could direct customers to, we were ignored.

The marketplace is underperforming, so we won't put in the effort needed to make the marketplace perform. Makes perfect sense.

Prices go up. Shipping goes up substantially, and then it was a thousand little cuts. The auto-checks were altered to make it impossible to verify anything manually with any accuracy, so it became harder to design for the limitations of their printers.

The site slowed down substantially so every click had a several second pause, making shopping and maintaining frustrating and unpleasant. Shipping costs to many areas of the world became insanely high, effectively cutting off entire markets.

Want to not be Shapeways? Then remember this:

Your users know more about your site experience and their own needs than you do.

If you have a sales site, and the people selling through it say "this isn't working, we need this" then maybe you should listen to them and not just say 'you're wrong' to their faces.

Oh, and also, if goddamn Rolls-Royce comes in filing false DMCA claims over the use of the word "Phantom" in any context on your site, you don't take every item through a multiple day review for every edit and say "LOL, we can't do anything"

You take them to court for abusing the system on behalf of your user base, you fucking bootlicking cowards.

OH, AND I ALMOST FORGOT!

I HAD TO FIND OUT ABOUT THIS FROM A DM ON TWITTER.

They've sent me a check every month for half a decade and they don't even send a "We're closing shop" email.

Look upon my prints, ye mighty, and despair.

If you want to help me though the meantime, here's my paypal.me and my gofundme.

I am here actually to appreciate your post. I saw a blogger’s post saying The sign would have been ‘successful’ had it got filled with fantasy and romance and limit action to 10%. I wondered why that person, who says BL is all about romance, watched a show whose genre is action. Then I saw your post about people watching many shows to stay in fandom and I agree. Also you are right about dramas with a complex story receiving heavy criticism. Everything (even lack of proper plot or conflict) is exempted in a romance drama. No wonder most BLs are confined to ‘2 boys and their jealous & crying moments, routine conflicts enhanced by Escola or leads explaining how important Nikon printer is for their relationship’

Well damn hit me in the feels with this appreciation I'ma get all shy and shit.

I always wonder if by "successful" people mean in terms of critical acclaim, story telling, or monetarily. When it comes to Thai shows - and some please correct me if I'm wrong - it's difficult to tell how "successful" they are terms of audience reach/monetarily because there's no easily verifiable information. Like, there's Youtube numbers sure, but The Sign as an example, aired on Channel 3 what were it's ratings total on that channel? Idk, does anyone know that? Sincerely asking lol

Personally the way I like to judge a piece of media is what I call the Roger Ebert method; he often judged films based not solely on whether they were "good" or "bad but by how successfully they accomplished their goals.

If you read his review of Space Jam while it's clear Ebert doesn't think the movie is high art, "You can watch the movie on the sports and cartoon levels, and also appreciate the corporate strategy that's involved. [...] It is difficult for an actor to work in movies that combine live action with animation, because much of the time he cannot see the other characters in a scene with him. But Jordan has a natural ease and humor, an unforced charisma, that makes a good fit with the cartoon universe."

Ebert praises that the film, while filled with obvious product placement and banking on both nostalgia for the toons & star power of Jordan, accomplishes it's goal of being a family for that can be enjoyed by adults and children, and also the ability to blend techniques of live action, animation and 3D rendering.

I bring this up specifically b/c when I see "reviews" of shows in BL - the most common form of meta I see in BL fandom as a whole and that's not a knock just an observation - it's usually always about the narrative. Nothing about the filmmaking. And if there is discussion about he filmmaking it's usually misinformed or worse misinforming - no that's not what aperture means, yaoi framing isn't really a thing in film, the t-shirt is really just a t-shirt, etc, etc.

And like I get why. Fandom is more about story, what the words on a page or what the characters on screen are doing and saying. It's easier to talk about the amazing communication two characters have b/c you don't really need a film knowledge to discuss that. Which is a factor in why I think shows with lower stakes, more streamlined and straightforward plots get praised at a higher, less diligent and harsh level, than shows that are a bit more daring. They're less challenging in structure, they take less risks, so there's less to critique, and there's less room for a show to disappoint.

There comfort food, rather than trying something new at the restaurant. I'm not saying this is a bad thing, again, this is just a general observation.

To me, The Sign is miles better than Cooking Crush on a simple technical level. I only watched one episode of Cooking Crush and I found it pretty mediocre at best from all technical points: acting, editing, cinematography, directing, storytelling.

This isn't to say Cooking Crush is "bad" or that even if Cooking Crush was "bad" people shouldn't like it. I don't give a fuck if people like it, good for you chase the things that spark joy! I like lots of "bad" media, have y'all ever watched Jason Takes Manhattan?

For me, The Sign, like Space Jam, accomplishes it's goals and those were ambitious goals. An action fantasy BL that actually lives up to that premise and looks good?? The fight choreography looks great considering the obviously budget??

Like one of my issues with Laws of Attraction - aside from how painfully disinterested those kisses looked - was the fight choreography was bad.

The characters very rarely land hits in a way that looks real, or even marginally real. I can only speculate they didn't hire a stunt coordinator and/or couldn't hire stunt doubles so there was a worry of injury on set (for both reasons).

This isn't a disparagement on the actor(s) either, like stunt work is difficult and it's important to have professionals on set who can walk an actor through the steps so both them and others don't get hurt. Jackie Chan is probably one of the best known actors alive for stunt work, but watch how many times he fumbles and potentially hurts himself to the point where other actors are actively worried for him:

So yeah I'm going to give The Sign it's fucking gold star stickers b/c aside from some missteps in the gun handling - to many one handed gun fights but even then it wasn't all the time and bullets ran out of ammo! Y'all don't know how exciting for me that was to see - the fight scenes look damn good.

I understand the work that went into them, I understand the pre-production time that it took for the crew and cast to learn that and filming them well is another beast too.

There's a couple scenes with shaky cam that I dislike, but god do I love that first long take in The Sign. I love how good the CGI looks overall again, considering what is probably less budget than Black Christmas (2019).

I'm admittedly, fucking picky about what I watch b/c I'm really lazy and prefer watching films in general. I don't really like TV all that much, but if I am watching a tv show I wanna be impressed with more than just the characters talking to each other. Especially if said show is 12 hours or more.

When I'm looking at a piece of media - a comic, a novel, a film, a tv show - I'm thinking about stuff like "what were it's goals, and did it accomplish them? How was the filmmaking? How was the narrative structure? What is the time/place/culture this was made in?"

I'm not sure if people are arguing if The Sign was "successful" in terms of narratively, monetarily, or critically.

In reality we can only really speculate on how successful a Thai BL is based on data that's not not entirely accurate - social media, youtube stats, awards, etc - and even then most of that is based off international audience.

I can glean that 2gether was successful for gmmtv b/c it got a second season and a film, pretty much skyrocketed Bright and Win's individual careers but again, and created a cross country alliance for activism. But even all that is still speculation not facts (except the alliance that's a real thing that happened lol).

[This is all regardless of my own feelings regarding the show which is not kind. But feelings have nothing to do with individual discussion about how monetarily successful or accomplished a show is or isn't.]

Like it might be valid speculation on both shows but it should always come with a disclaimer of - these are not facts. Also, what is "popular" or "successful" can and will be dependent on individual countries too.

Take Cutie Pie for example, I would argue that it wasn't super "successful" here with American fans, but given how overwhelmingly popular Zee and NuNew are in both Thailand and Korea, I would then argue that the show was a success in Thailand and Korea. So was Cutie Pie "successful" or not? I would say yes!

Because "success" isn't and shouldn't be measured only by how western fans receive a piece of media.

In regards to The Sign, I'd argue it appears to be very successful with only the partial data I have at hand - social media which includes places like twitter, facebook, tumblr, the success of their sold out showing for the finale, a special episode, etc. If people argue it was unsuccessful in terms of narrative, well that's debatable and I have no interest in debating why the show is good except in terms of technical filmmaking and storytelling.

And even then it's a pointless debate like or dislike whatever just don't lie or mislead people regarding film terminology and techniques or harass people because they did like A Thing or clog up the tags with annoying posts about how you didn't like said Thing.

Overall, I don't give "reviews" on things I watch either positive or negative cause, well, I'm lazy lol, I don't believe putting how much I hate a show in it's tags and a thorough rating system would be to much work. I actually like how My Drama List rating system works, I just find most reviews on it to be Annoying lmao. Like giving Kinnporsche a 5 or below is absolutely bonkers to me but whatever es lo que es. But I also don't think my thoughts and opinions on shows are that valuable in terms of discussion.

These are mostly my general thoughts on fandom at large and it's not directly at any particular people its just observations at large across various social media platforms.

I think if you like more squeecore shows that's totally gucci, I just wish didn't proposite that 1) those are the only valid shows in terms of BL/queer media and 2) didn't overhype them to such sky high levels

FIGURINE REVIEW (PART 1)

Okay so with some help from @iliveforyouilongforyouvesuvia I’ve bought two of the figurines: Asra & Muriel.

I want to see the quality for myself, post images of what people should be expecting, and take the time to paint them and modify them. And I figure the best two to work with would be Asra—I love his design and it would be fun to paint it on a miniature—and Muriel for very obvious reasons.

I’m going to document parts of the buying process, and include reviews I’ve gotten about the two different sizes. I’ll document the quality and customization process of my own figurines in another post.

It took a while for the figures to even be shipped out. Granted I did order them on December 16th, so holiday shipping was in the way. The claim was that it would take about 10 days to produce, not including shipping time.

What was specifically said was:

“Please note that to ensure the highest quality and attention to detail, each figurine is made to order. This bespoke approach guarantees that your figurine is crafted specifically for you. This process can take 10 days, not including shipping time.”

To get to the point where I finally had an idea of when they would ship, I had to email customer support a few times. I was told originally that I would get them on January 9th; then I was told the 16th; it ultimately didn’t ship out until the 18th. (Side note: the customer service representative was absolutely lovely to talk to! /gen)

This implies that there’s a quality control team, but from what I’ve seen in pictures people sent me? …yeahhh I’m not so sure about that. Supports are still attached, someone got an Asra figurine that was slightly taller than Julian and not the correct size (how did that happen???) and another person told me the figurines snapped in half at the waist when they unpacked them.

Most of these problems are with the smaller, tabletop miniature size. The supports being attached are mentioned in the notes on the site as normal, and that buyers can remove them easily. I’m going to be honest, I don’t think it should be on the buyers to remove the supports. But that’s how the figurines are shipped out, so just be warned.

Supposedly the figurines should come with an accompanying stand, to be attached to after painting. This might be a new addition since I’ve seen no mention of the stands before, and someone pointed out in their review that they didn’t fit in other stands.

EDITED TO ADD: There’s an expectation for 3D Printers to make mistakes frequently. There’s also an expectation for quality control when distributing the product.

Most reviews for the larger ones seem to be positive, but it’s hit or miss if they still have the supports attached. I’ve included reviews and pictures that I have permission to share below!

13|Nov|2024

I’m back home and ready to go all in on growing my business on social media! I’m excited to start creating and sharing content on YouTube and TikTok, especially on a topic I’m passionate about – 3D modeling and printing. Here are a few tips I’ll be using to improve my video content about 3D modeling and printing:

1. Show the process step-by-step

People love seeing the details – start from the project concept, then showcase the modeling, printing, and finishing stages. Breaking down the process into clear steps makes it easy to follow and understand.

2. Create short, engaging intros

Especially on TikTok, the first few seconds need to grab attention. On YouTube, it’s also helpful to start with something intriguing, like a shot of the finished model or a surprising effect.

3. Experiment with close-up shots

Show print details from various angles – close-ups of the printer in action, the texture, and print quality. This lets viewers “experience” the physical aspect of the work.

4. Explain technical aspects in simple terms

Even people new to the technology can get interested if complex terms (like filament types or modeling software) are broken down in a clear, accessible way.

5. Provide educational value

Share tips and tricks – how to avoid errors, improve print quality, and choose the best software and hardware for 3D modeling and printing. These “insider secrets” build trust and loyalty.

6. Experiment with different content formats

Try longer tutorials or vlogs on YouTube, while focusing on quick tutorials, before-and-after shots, short reviews, or hacks on TikTok.

7. Tell a story – even with technical videos

Stories are key to viewer engagement. Share the story behind each model, challenges that came up, and how they were solved. This personal touch makes the content more relatable and interesting.

8. Encourage interaction

Ask questions, invite feedback on a model, or offer project ideas. The more interactive the content, the more likely viewers are to keep coming back.

I hope these tips will be useful both for you and for me as I begin this journey. Wish me luck!
