What 3d printing pen do you guys recommend? I see ranges from 30 to 200 dollars out there. Any tips?

    Could you share some examples of what you’ve been able to create, and approximately how long they took?

      I’ll look for some examples tomorrow. But along with free handing sculptures, I’ve also used the 3D pen as a welding machine for my 3D prints. You can use it a bit like a tig welder, making welds to connect two parts with the same material and color as the print. It can be completely invisible with sanding afterwards. I also used it to fill in cracks in other things that broke. It’s both fun and super useful for functional parts.
