Overview

How it was Done

In this video I build a reliable 3D printer for under $300! The particular machine being built is a Folger Tech RepRap 2020 Prusa i3 Full Aluminum 3D printer.

Over the next few videos I will be showing you how you can upgrade this printer very inexpensively, that can produce some really high quality prints.

Make sure to come back for the next couple of videos where I show all of the essential first upgrades you will need for your Prusa i3 printer including a few free prints hosted online and and the purchase upgraded hotend and minor parts. I will then be testing out e3D’s .25mm and .15mm diameter nozzles for some really high quality prints.
