I'm considering getting a 3D printer.  I don't need anything big, but I don't want anything too small either.  Not too expensive, but I'm also not afraid to spend a little to get something good.  A 3D scanner might be in the cards as well depending on the cost.   Any suggestions?

My step-son has gone through 4 or 5 of them in the last few years, and has finally found a really good one that he thinks will hold up and do what he wants. Let me talk to him about what he's looking at and get back to you.

Any ideas?  I've looked at online reviews, but with so many out there, there isn't much of a consensus.

Hi Maestro Jones, I think fellow member Master Seblaise has a Creality Ender 3 printer. He recently posted some Warhammer(?) style figurines he had printed and they looked pretty decent (well detailed for the size). He didn't give a definitive endorsement of the printer yet as he'd just got it but I am looking at getting one for my sabers.

p.s. I am in no way an expert on 3D printing so take my opinion with a pinch of salt, there may be better alternatives out there but you have at least one make and model to consider/look into.
