Re: {Possible Spam} [CESI List] 3d printer advice

[Val Gavin]

Hi John, you can have a loan of a GEEETECH 10M with dual extruder for a few months by that time you can decide if a 3D printer is for you.

It's been left unused for the last six months because of workshop space and work demands. The hot plate is a  little scored but I have  used masking tape with success.

It just needs a cleanup

Subject: {Possible Spam} [CESI List] 3d printer advice
Date: Wed, Sep 22, 2021 12:38

I'm thinking about buying a 3d printer for the school. In fact I've been thinking about it for a few years. Much procrastination and not 100% convinced we should get one but I'm getting more tempted and I have a space for it now that I didn't have in the past.

We have no 3d printing experience. We want to buy something decent but not silly money, something that will stand up to use by students, a solid performer rather than a temperamental star.

Can anyone point me at something to consider? Are there preferred suppliers in Ireland or ones to avoid - perhaps email me off-list at jheg...@clongowes.net for that.

We used to use Sketchup quite a bit and I see it has gone online now and students can use it through their Google or MS O365 accounts with files being save in Google Drive, One Drive etc. being able to 3d print stuff from this might be interesting/useful - https://edu.sketchup.com/

If using it in a Google school then the admin has to enable it for use by all - a "domain install"  https://gsuite.google.com/u/0/marketplace/app/sketchup_for_schools/260457348581

Thanks
