I made this about a year ago and it’s one of my favorite creations. Even though I made a mistake in measuring the bottom and had to cut out some slots. One day I’ll print it again, but it used a ton of filament and took forever last time.

    That’s resin printing that you need good ventilation for. I think there are some that are safer than others but for fdm which is the melting plastic and extruding it in lines there is no issue being indoors.

    You can also make enclosures for them though so they are isolated

        It’s very much not something you can just use like a printer. It’s a hobby in and of itself

            I think understanding printing would definitely help designs so you can make them in ways that are easier to print too

            No need to wait, you are in perfect place to pay for a printing service. Its quite cheap and available everywhere if you can provide 3D model. OP’s model is huge so that one might be more expensive
