I considered the Dremel because I like their other tools. The
research I did online shows way more people dislike it than like
it. Amazon sells it too and is a good place to get a condensed
version of the reviews.<br>

<div>Afaik that thing is proprietary and I haven't seen much about
hacking it to take custom firmware. Seems like there is a group
of guys out there working on it though </div>

<div>If it's anything like some other printers it has an SD card
hiding somewhere. My da-Vinci has it inside the case and needs a
slot cut out to access it. Printers with embedded SD slots
usually take .gcode files with custom headers. So you can slice
in whatever you want as long as you insert the header that the
machine is looking for.</div>

<div>Do some searching. Looks to be a decent community out there
for it. </div>

<div>I know you didn't ask for this opinion but I'll offer it
anyway (apologies in advance):</div>
<div>That printer is very over priced for its print area and print
material. If it's within return period I'd do so and invest in a
printerbot simple metal ($600) for better specs than the Dremel
or ask the group. I'm fond of my $500 da Vinci by xyz printing.
If you or your friend is stuck with the Dremel than definitely
keep an eye out for custom firmware. <br>

<div>I have to admit that I do not participate in 3D
printing as much as I should right now but I had someone
ask me about Simple3D. They were interested in Simple3D
mostly because of its method to create Raft and
Supports/Skirt and Supports for objects. I asked them to
print me a complicated object and I have gotten hell for
it ever since. They have some Dremel 3D printer that I
just looked up.<br>

<div>I asked them for the model number, but I do not have it
yet. Is this a clone of another popular printer that
everyone uses or is it proprietary?<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>What is the go to software to control these things in
this current day? They guy does not have much familiarity
with Linux if that counts.<br>

<div>Thanks ahead of time for the responses.<br>
