    Question 3D Printing info?

    I am delving into the world of 3D printing! I have a Balco (Wanhao) printer on its way. A few questions for those in the know...

    Which is a good forum for information and advice?

    Which is a good supplier for filament and other consumables? Would prefer to support online order from a genuine AU store rather than some obscure ebay seller.

    I notice Jaycar sells filament as probably my only local stockist. Any idea on the quality of this project, or the variation in quality amongst the various suppliers?

    Let the information flow..

    Cheers,
    Chris

    I didn't end up getting to speak to Lindsay Andrew. I'm happy with my purchase, it is a good well known basic machine with heaps of scope for improvement mods.
