About February 2020, I bought 3D Printer Dremel 3D40 from Amazon. I remember that I was very happy to buy this printer because the printer is very nice and good, also, it has very nice price. But all of that, I am very satisfy with my purchase of this printer.
You can see the picture above is my Dremel Printer.
It came with one PLA filaments, which is white. When I reviewed this product after my purchasing, I got 2 more PLA filaments free of charge. For setting up the printer is pretty easy. All you have to do is following the Quick start guide from Dremel.
Step 1
Go to Dremel website for getting started. Link here.
Step 2
Unboxing the printer
Step 3
Complete the setup in the link above.
Here I took a picture of the kits that came with the purchase. With my purchase, I got Dremel printer, flexible build plate and build plate holder, filament spool, build tape, object removal tool, power cable, USB cable, instruction manual, USB Flash Drive, and unclog tool.

Tinkercad is really a nice, simple and easy to use. Even kids can make a 3D Model in Tinkercad. However, Tinkercad cannot be use in offline mode. When your internet is down, it will become inaccessible. Therefore, you cannot make anything if there is no internet access or offline. If you really need to work in offline mode, there are some other software to use for making 3D Printing.
3D Builder
This software was published by Microsoft Corp. It is a free software, but you must have Windows 10. Its features are similar with Tinkercad, but it has a lot of advantages in applying color and textures. The weakness in this software is that there is no ability in making holes and combining objects, not like Tinkercad.
3D Slash
This software basically is free to download, but limited to other payment option. It is similar with Minecraft. You can build 3D Model by using blocks. It is suitable for kids and gamers, who like playing game like Minecraft. You can use some features, such as chisel and hammer, to break the block into smaller things.
Sketch Up
This software has a 30-days trial for free use, after that you have to pay it. It is quite simple and easy to use with many features and add plugins.

3D Printing is process of making three dimensional model from CAD Model into solid objects. The main advantage of 3D Printing is that can made a complex model easily that is hard to model by hand.
3D Printing Work
I suggest that if you are beginner in this area, you can directly make 3D model to the CAD Software.
3D Printing CAD Software
Right now there are a lot of CAD Software to make 3D Model. From the easy to use tools and free source to the expert users and paid thousands dollars for the license each year. For beginner, I suggest to use Tinkercad Software. It is very easy to use. Also, it has many tutorials to follow and the most important thing is that you can make 3D model from browser and do not need to download the software.3D Slicer
After finishing making 3D model, all you have to do is to printing your model. If you do not have 3D Printer yet, you can send your model to 3D Printing Service company to print it for you. If you have 3D Printer in hand, you should slice your 3D Model first before printing it.The slicer software is different with each other, depending your 3D Printer. Some 3D printers have slicer that built in the printer and it let you use file with extension like .stl, .obj or CAD file.
This process can be carried out through USB, SD or internet (Wifi). After slicing, your 3D model can be sent to the printer and ready to be printed.
