Been looking into getting us a machine for small parts.
I had both my manifolds 3D printed prior to tooling being made.
1) white powdery material very easy to break. Just look and place type sample. Couldn't bolt turbo housing to it.
2nd one. A black plastic. Very strong able to bolt some weight in it.
Company printed it in 2pieces. Glued together with alignment pins in place.
Manifold was to big for their machine.
Any recommendation on a machine for small parts?
Quick prototyping.
