The Latest in 3D Printing Deals for Black Friday
For those interested in delving into the world of 3D printing, Black Friday may just be the perfect time to snag a great deal. One standout option, recommended by Sean Hollister from The Verge, is the Bambu P1P 3D printer.
Sean, a seasoned 3D printing enthusiast, hails the Bambu P1P as the “easiest, most reliable 3D printer” based on his review from May 2024. Typically priced at $699, this printer is currently available on the company’s website for just $449. But you’ll have to act fast, as this special offer, along with discounts on filament and accessories, is only valid until Dec. 3 at 3 a.m. eastern time.
Exploring the Boundless Potential of 3D Printing
While Sean has used his 3D printer for a variety of projects, from crafting Nerf gun replicas to producing ear savers during the COVID pandemic, the possibilities extend far beyond his use cases. With a 3D printer, individuals can bring to life virtually anything they can imagine using 3D modeling software or existing files.
In the realm of tabletop gaming, the availability of STL files for miniatures has opened up new avenues for creativity. Games like Trench Crusade and Fallout: Wasteland Warfare now offer enthusiasts the opportunity to print and assemble their own physical miniatures.
Enhancing Gaming Accessories with 3D Printing
Forward-thinking companies in the gaming accessory space, such as Mechanism and dbrand, are taking advantage of 3D printing to offer users even more customization options. For instance, dbrand has released a free universal mount download for its Project Killswitch case, allowing gamers to easily attach accessories to their Steam Deck or Asus ROG Ally consoles. Similarly, Mechanism provides free files for many of its products, empowering users to enhance and personalize their gaming setup.
