    Hi there!

    Well, I'm David, from France and I'm happy to be part of this community!

    I backed this project for few reasons:
    1_ 3D printing seems to be really cool! I really know very few about this universe and I think it will be a huge thing in a few months/years.
    2_I love gadgets. I use to buy to myself some things only because they are cool. And I'm a kind of compulsory buyer. A 3D printer is still a kind of (bit expensive) gadget to play with.
    3_I guess it's a very good way to practice English. As a good French, I use to not be able to speak or understand English very well. You'll see a lot of mistakes in all my sentences, so don't hesitate in making some corrections. I just need to learn. And as 95% of the documentation about 3Dprinting is in English, I'll be forced to practice a little. More than all, as a 3D printer is not a 10$ gadget, I'll sure make some efforts to understand bunch of articles and tutorials to make it work.
    4_Maybe I'll try to start some electronic work, for myself again. As if I try to make some support for my phone, for instance, it would be cool to try to add some electricity into it :)

    As you saw, I'm a newbie and hope I'll learn a lot with each of you guys!

    See you soon!

    D

    Welcome David! I think #3 may be the best reason I have heard someone has backed this project. Learn 3d printing AND English ha-ha very clever. Be sure to take a look around the forums are already starting to buzz with action.

    Hi Michael!

    Yeah I saw the "Gadget Storage " project! It seems really cool.
    You all guys have much more experience than I have, and that's why you can afford you to start with such an interesting project :)
    I think I'll wait to receive my printer, then I'll try to understand how it works. And when I get it, I'll start to think about bigger projects :)

    I have no previous knowledge of 3d printing and very minimal of design. Just started looking around online at tutorials and reading what I can.

    In essence: This is an english-speaking forum. There's no use posting in french, nor is it in german.
    So @fabrice: If you want answers, write english.

    but I was having fun trying to understand it. Honestly it is kind of neat hearing from people in other countries.

    I heard they will put "Testing" on the box to avoid any issues. Or something like that, but I could be wrong.
