Additive manufacturing, the opposite of sculpture, you add material from nothing, in sculpture you have a block and you keep removing pieces.

I have a FDM type 3D printer

There are also types:

  • SLA: uses liquid resin, very high quality
  • SLS: nylon powder
  • laser cutting: similar to 3d printing with pla

Types of printing material or filament:

  • ABS material: car dashboard
  • PETG: plastic bottles
  • plastic mixed with wood
  • plastic mixed with ceramic
  • plastic mixed with metal
  • These materials are good for models or characters
  • Wood, ceramic or metal come in powder form
  • PLA: plastic cutlery

FDM 3d printer is suitable with PLA

I have a filament type 3d printer

The base or bed of my 3D printer is hot

This is so that the PLA adheres well to the base.

My printer only prints 1 color or one roll of filament.

can be paused to change filament material, that is if you want more than 1 color.

in the example I print file fella

“Filla Fella” refers specifically to a 3D model designed by Agustin Flowalistik and promoted by the company Fillamentum, a manufacturer of filaments for 3D printing.

“Filla Fella” is a specific 3D model used for the promotion of 3D printing filaments and also serves as a basis for user creativity.
