I understand your concerns @Perry_1 and I’ll definitely make sure the article communicates the capabilities and limitations of FDM printers fairly. The article won’t insinuate that the shapes you mention cannot be printed with FDM. Instead, the article will explain why printing such models with FDM…

Thanks Perry. Indeed looks like a tough print for a desktop FDM printer. This model could be a good example of an intricate shape.

Thanks, added threads and tall / narrow objects to the list. Watertightness I think is less of a shape characteristic.

Interesting. You say anything more rigid than PLA is not a good idea but on the other hand you did have good success with Colorfab-XT and polycarbonate which are both very rigid materials. Wondering when rigidness does become an obstacle for push-fit parts? For what types of push-fits a more flexib…

Thanks for your feedback John. I guess it starts with knowing what the pro’s & cons of each technology / material are no matter what industry you’re in - from aviation, to consumer products, to architecture. Or do you believe there is something special about 3D printing in architecture?

Interesting. I guess when it’s easy to turn a visual prototype into a functional one it makes sense to skip visual prototyping. However, especially with more complex products, this is not always the case. Or do you disagree with this?
