Creatlity Ender-3 V2 3D printer prizeWhat would you create with a Creality Ender-3 V2 3D printer? Or perhaps it’s not you who would benefit by having one in your home; this might be great for the kids and family activities. Also, now that school is back in, a 3D printer might be just the thing for students to take their school projects to an A+ level of excellence. Ponder for a few minutes about the possibilities, read this article for some inspiration, then learn how you can enter for a chance to win an industry leading Creality 3D Printer.

Back to school season is a perfect time for learning 3D printing

Who is 3D printing for? Everyone is the best answer, but especially anyone who wants to learn and be creative. Many professions are using them to quickly create models related to their work. For example, architects may iterate designs for a new building by printing them. Engineers too, can see the results of scaled-down versions of their designs in minutes using a 3D printer. And there are many entrepreneurs selling their 3D creations online for practical home applications or for hobbyists.

Crafts and hobbies are one of my favourite applications of this relatively new technology. Imagine having an exact replica of Han Solo’s blaster or Worf’s Bat’leth. There are thousands of videos online showing how to get started.

How hard is it to use an Ender-3 V2 3D printer

Obviously printing 3D objects is not as simple as printing on paper. But there are some similarities. You’ll need a computer to send files to the printer in both cases. You’ll also need to have a complete project ready to go before it can be printed. Printing in 3D requires you to put in the printing medium (and there are a few types), and like regular printing, the print material is sold in cartridges. So you already understand the basics of creating a 3D printed object.

You can learn more about 3D printing and about the 3D printer we are giving away in this contest, by reading Brad Moon’s overview article here on the blog. And there are tons of useful videos online and free to download files to help with setting up your printer setup and creating masterpieces. You and your children will soon be printing for school, for work, and for fun.

  3. I would make a feeder for my daughter’s gecko. The one he has attaches to his terrarium with magnets but it has mold problems – to make a simple magnet one which is also washable would be great. My daughter would choose the colour, I suspect she would like green or brown.

  9. Oooh, the possibilities are endless – one would be to make my own garden ornaments. My first project would be a purple garden gnome!!

  14. I would like to print out a set of Sherlock Holmes chess pieces; with Professor Moriarty the King of the “villains” pieces and Sherlock Holmes the King of the “heroes” pieces. Flesh coloured, with the clothing painted as required.

  17. I would like to experiment with parts to fix items around my home and to make toys for my son. I would probably choose blue for the colour.

  27. I just spent way to much time looking at things you can print on a 3D printer. My first thing would be acute iPhone holder in green.

  33. I’d probably start with replacing small parts for my kid’s toys that have broken off over time, and those are in various colours. Then, I’ll proceed with creating custom Monopoly pieces in silver/pewter…because my kid always takes the car.

  34. My daughter has become obsessed with fish lately, so I would like to print her a fish that looks like Nemo of “Finding Nemo” in orange, black and white.

  36. I would make tea cups and saucers. I know there’s issues with items being food-safe, but I’ve looked into it, and you can make them in a food-safe way. As for color, well, I’d like to make all kinds of colors, but most of all, my favourite – turqoise. Thank you very much for the chance.
