I'm thinking in buy a 3D printer, Someone recommend any?
 
My brother-in-law got a Dremel 3D printer for Christmas last year. From the few items I've seen off it, the 100 micron resolution prints are rather good; even before any finishing is done. The lower resolutions (300 microns) are quite rough though.
 
I got a pruisa i3 off ebay for £150 and it is brilliant print quality is good and can be better it is down to how much time u spend calibrating once set just leave it and add any files with the sd card hope this helps it will also print pla abs ect
 
What camera accessories are there to print in 3d?

What do you think of 3D printing as decoration?

Well have a look on thingverse there's thousands of bits on there and decorations look OK as long as you print in high quality or use acetone on abs after printing
 
WOW there was me thinking that 3D printers cost a bomb!

How much is the refills?

I doubt you got a genuine Prusa (correct spelling) i3 for ?150 GBP as the genuine ones cost upwards of ?600 GBP for the MK2 version as a build yourself kit and ?800 GBP pre-built.

There a ton of copies, some good and some utter crap. There's also a ton of ebay sellers referring to their printers as Prusa i3 when they mean it's styled like Prusa i3.

Gearbest have the Anet a6 build yourself kit (a Prusa i3 copy) for ?150 GBP at the moment and according to a crap ton of youtube reviews it's one of the best 3d printers for under ?1000 GBP, after getting it setup.
 
The Anet a6 is a very good buy, I have the A8 and I am happy although it has its deficiencies everything is better
