Starting 3D Printer -- Tracy Delph "Hey guys, I'm looking to buy my first 3d printer. My price point is sub $350. I've watched the KnowHow episode for the MonoPrice Maker Select and the New Matter Mod-t. I like both of these printers but I've seen some posts saying the Mod-t is more of a toy than a good 3D printer. Any recommendations, I'm new to this category but I catch on pretty quick. Thanks in advance..."
