Good Times with the $80 EasyThreed K7

Watch on YouTube When I started this video I had 35 minutes of footage.

Do not buy the Selpic Star A 3D Printer

Watch on Youtube This printer has literally been sitting with it’s own failed prints on my shelf for a while now, and as soon as this video was over I pitched it straight in the garbage. I didn’t even want to strip it for parts or see if any part of it would be useful. I’m rethinking that now. I …
