Last time I thought about getting into 3D printing, I was put off by the weak printed objects I saw. People in videos were bending them and causing them to peel into separate layers. I figured the technology wasn't up to making useful objects that were capable of standing up to real-world use.
Now I'm looking at the technology again. I'm seeing claims that seem to suggest you can actually use printed objects instead of relying on them for models and so on. Is this true?
I just saw that Monoprice makes a cheap printer that has a heated plate and prints at up to 260 Celsius. I was thinking I might try one out.
