What printer should I buy? That is one of the most frequently asked questions we get at WTFFF?! Once you have decided to take the plunge and buy your own 3D printer, your head may spin as you weigh the options and ever-growing choices of 3D printers on the market. The multitude of features and benefits that differentiate each printer mean that there is no one printer that is a perfect fit for all users. So the question is very hard to answer, because it depends on WHAT kinds of things you want to print, your skill level, and your budget.


We first saw the Polar 3D printer when it debuted at CES (Consumer Electronics Show) in January, 2015. Its open design, circular build plate, and rotational movement immediately caught our attention. Fast forward to August, and Polar 3D submitted one of their printers to WTFFF?! for a formal review. We have now spent a considerable amount of time over the course of more than a month getting to know and understand this unusual but impressive 3D printer. After weeks of working closely with the printer, we interviewed William Steele, CEO of Polar 3D, and the chief engineer/creator of the Polar 3D printer.

We’d like to remind our listeners that we will be taking a hiatus from our “Ask Us Anything” segments for the rest of September and October to get out into the field and bring you some cutting edge content straight from the show floor. However, this does not mean we will be stopping all together – our regular Thursday Podcasts will still be on time! If you have a question about 3D print design, production, sales or more, Ask Us Anything and we will store it away in our super special box of questions and dive into them when we get back into the swing of things at the end of October. Thank you to all the loyal fans who will be sticking through this with us, we hope to bring you the very best information about this rapidly expanding industry we all love!
