Meet Lynda Hall
I’m Lynda and I live in Hampshire with my husband, two teenage daughters and 3 crazy dogs. I love crafting in many forms, but for me card making and mixed media work is where my passion really lies. I enjoy nothing better than spending my weekends in my conservatory at my craft desk. I love being on the Samantha K DT as the range of designs she provides is so varied and are a joy to work with.
I think the favourite piece I have created in my time on the team has to be my steampunk Pegasus. I just adore the intricate detail on him, and it took the Powertex so well. Steampunk is a style I really enjoy, so it was fun to alter him in this way.
Hello All,
I posted yesterday on Facebook and since then I have been messaged by a few people asking what i would pick 3D printer wise. So i thought i would share this here and there incase anyone is interested.
These are my opinions only and i would 100% recommend anyone do their own research before purchasing a 3D printer. There are lots of other brands out there, Anycubic and Creality were two other brands i looked at, but for me Elegoo always seem to be slightly ahead or the same specs for less money and they have a great reputation in the industry.
If i couldn’t have got the Saturn, I would have gone for the Mars 2 pro, however the mars 2 is just as good if you want to save some pennies, the main differences between these two, are the pro has a very marginly bigger build area, has air filtration, has aluminum vat and knobs rather than plastic and a few more bits. None affect the quality of the models that come off though as both have the same light source/screen.
I would not go for the Mars (not linked) as the improvements between that and the 2 were quite a jump, including the much better mono screen and its all about the screen with these machines ? (well kinda lol)
I have linked the two mentioned below on Amazon as this is the best price i found, especially as a prime member and today being the last day of prime deals you get a chunk off, in fact with your savings you can get a bottle of resin for the printer and still have change from the normal price
Hope this helps (remember the prime member prices are only whilst prime day is on!)
