Find the Right 3D Printer for Your Home or Hobby

If you’re not sure where to start, pick the style that suits your projects. Resin 3D printers deliver ultra-fine detail for minis and models, while filament 3D printers (FDM) are great all-rounders for sturdy, functional parts. We carry entry-level units that get you printing in under an hour, plus pro-leaning machines with bigger build volumes and faster speeds. If you’re hunting inexpensive 3D printers, you’ll still get essentials like guided setup, clear screens and quiet operation – ideal for 3D printing at home.

Resin vs. Filament 3D Printers

Resin units cure liquid resin layer by layer for a superb surface finish, making them perfect when precision matters. Meanwhile, filament machines melt and lay down plastic line by line, creating parts that are tougher and easier to post-process. If you’re new to materials, read our resin 3D printer guide or explore options in the filament types guide.

FAQs for 3D Printers

How much is a 3D printer in Australia?

You can expect to find entry 3D printer models from around $300, with advanced units priced at $1,000+, depending on speed, size and features. We stock budget 3D printer options that still include guided setup and safety features, making them ideal for learners. If you’re new to the space, our Beginner’s Guide helps you compare models and costs before you buy.

What can you make with a 3D printer at home?

Plenty: phone stands, drawer organisers, garden clips, custom décor, cosplay parts, toys, miniatures and even hard-to-find replacement pieces. It’s brilliant for classrooms, makerspaces and weekend tinkering. For inspiration, browse our guide on What Can You Make with a 3D Printer and get started on a project today.

Is a resin or filament 3D printer better for beginners?

Filament (FDM) is usually easiest: quick to set up, forgiving, and great for larger, functional prints. Resin (SLA) wins for tiny details and smooth finishes, but involves handling liquid resin and post-curing. Most newcomers start with filament, then add resin later if high detail is essential.

Do I need special software or files to use a 3D printer?

You’ll download or design models (usually STL files) and prepare them with a slicer like Cura or PrusaSlicer. Sites such as Thingiverse and Printables offer thousands of free designs, and most printers include starter software or links so you can hit ‘print’ quickly.

What should I know before buying my first 3D printer?

Before buying your first 3D printer, consider several key factors: build volume (how big you can print), material compatibility, software ease, and brand support. It’s also important to factor in ongoing costs like filament or resin. Today’s machines are more user-friendly than ever - start small, but choose a model that can grow with your skills.
