It all began with an idea to get a 3D printer for home. The original intention of the 3D printer was to print a parts for my antenna designs. Then came up the idea to print something while the printer wasn\u00b4t being used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I got the inspiration from a sub reddit r\/3D_printing<\/a> to print an airplane and later I discovered a great youtube channel of Richard Mr\u00e1zek<\/a> where he mentioned the guys from 3Dlabprint which is a company luckily from the Brno in the Czech Republic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The very first airplane I wanted to print was IL-2 M3 Sturmovik<\/a>, it was that time the newset airplane in the shop a and the price of $20 was acceptable for some print tests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The idea becomes reality just instantly. I very appreciate genereated .gcodes for i3 Pr\u016f\u0161a\u00b4s printers. You just put the airplane in the basket, proceed paying via PayPal and in a second you are downloading .STL files and pre-generated .gcodes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
