My kitchen pantry is fairly small. It’s actually no larger than the average coat closet. I have to use that space as efficiently as possible, and not waste any of it.

Since I’ve never actually touched a 3D printer before, I had no idea what to expect when my X1 arrived. What would it take to go from boxed bits and bobs to actual results?

The business I’m researching involves hardware. This has led to a need to create prototypes of said hardware. The electronic part of that is, honestly, fairly easy given my skillset.
