Last month, I explained a little about the 3D
printing process and the parts that make up an
extrusion type printer. I then briefly introduced
you to three 3D printers: the Printrbot Jr.,
Rostock Max, and Solidoodle 2.
This month, I am adding a fourth printer to the
mix. The printer shown in Figure 1 is an Afinia
H-Series printer. It's fully assembled and ready
to print out of the box.
