I’m not much of a reader but I read this book in a couple days. Now I have some kind of idea how to approach this 3d printing thing. Looking forward to it.

Suppose to show beginners all about 3D printing and there is not one photo in the book. Just boring text.

Got a 3D printer for Christmas. Yay! Good printer, but with little documentation. I quickly discovered that there is a definite learning curve to using these things. No problem, borrowed a book from the library like ‘3D printing for people with few brain cells’ – if you can read between the lines. Not helpful at all. A friend came by and gave me a start, but it wasn’t enough. So I downloaded this book on Kindle Unlimited. Wow! This was an easy read, and specific enough to get most people off to a good start. The only thing lacking was a discussion of modifying the Z axis to improve the quality of print. If you search carefully enough, you can find that info on YouTube. Other than that, this book is terrific. Highly recommended for beginners! Have fun printing!

This book is about what machine you should buy, different types of filaments, and buying designs from her friends. Was not helpful at all for me.

I keep clicking the link at the bottom of the page but it won’t redirect to the site. I don’t think the link is active anymore. Is there some other to get “10 beliefs to stop now”? Haven’t read it yet but I’m really hoping this can help. Would definitely recommend to friends and family!

Great book if you start from zero, to learn the lingo, machines, materials and tips to start 3D printing successfully. Combined with the YouTube tutorial from Paul McWhorter (who coincides with the book in most recommendations and tips) I was printing without flaws in no time. Strongly recommended as your first stop if you are interested in 3D printing.

I have been thinking about 3D printing for several months. There is a lot of information out there in the ‘verse’, much of it not useful for several reasons.ED Printing Made Easy lives up to its name.Basic, solid, sensible and easy-to-understand info.Limited technical jargon and presented in a manner to help you decide if 3D is for you and what to expect.Thanks Natalie!

The information is good, more photos and graphics would make it better. I’m a guy, and very visual, pictures always help.

I enjoyed reading this book, gave me a lot of hints, and helpful suggestions for what my prints were doing wrong. I learned a bunch of new stuff today. I like the fact that the book was available not only physically but digitally so that I could take it with me on my phone. Will definitely recommend this book for any newbies to the game.

I was a total newbie. This removed a lot of unknowns, answered lingering questions, and soothed anxiety. This book was a great place to start.

What I liked -1. Easy read, the author kept me interested all through the book.2. Section on filaments was pretty thorough. I have revisited this chapter many times.3.Websites – of where to find 3d images was helpful.4. Basic information of software gives you a general feel of the processes required to do a print5. Good general trouble shooting section.6. Free with kindle unlimitedCons:I can’t really think of anything. Just remember this is introductory book. If your already familiar with 3d printers you’ll need a more advanced book.

This is a quick read and does have a lot of good information as well as encouragement.Myself, I was looking for something a little more in depth about certain topics that were covered broadly, and well for someone just curious about or just getting started with 3D printing.

I am new to #D printing and I have read three other books on this subject, and this is by far one of the best books I have read. It explains things in normal terms and doesn’t get technical without explanation of what they are talking about. If you’re a newbie like me and even if you haven’t bought a 3D printer yet read this book. You won’t regret it I promise.

Just getting into the world of 3D printing. I enjoyed this book. I had ordered my printer and didn’t even unbox it until I finished this book.
