Abstract

In Chapter 4, we talk about how to buy a 3D printer. In this chapter, we discuss what to anticipate when you bring it into its new home and unpack it. You do not need an expensive, special space for it, but knowing a few things about what a 3D printer really does not like might save you a lot of grief.
