Bill NewcomerHas anyone purchased and used a 3D printer? I see that you can get started for around $200. I am thinking it would be awesome to make things like tires in the exact dimensions/brand I want. Maybe print out model bodies of cars that have never been kitted. 1977 Pontiac Can Am, 1974 Pontiac GTO, Kenworth T2000 etc.

Chaz Gordonyou'd need a dual extruder for bodies, need to run a bunch of support trees, don't worry, the software does that bit, then you dissolve the support filament in water I think. You can also get rubber filament for some machines. I've got my eye on a Flashforge Dual extruder at £600.
