Durabilityĭurability is one of the most important aspects.

If you only want to print small models, a 3D printer that is capable of producing fine details is recommended. The Creality CR-10S* has an even larger volume and is therefore also recommended for creating cosplay props. Printer with large construction volumeįor large cosplay props, we recommend the 3D printers LulzBot Taz 6* and Creality CR-10*.īoth 3D printers have a construction volume of approximately 280 x 280 x 250 millimeters. If you want to print cosplay weapons such as swords, hammers and arrows, you should make several individual parts, which you can fuse together by cold welding after printing. The build volume should correspond to the size of your costume, which you determined in the conception phase. Keep in mind, however, that these welded seams are potential weaknesses of your cosplay props. So you can exclude those 3D-printers with an extremely small print area.įor larger construction projects you will have to weld your sections together. However, the majority of 3D printers are not designed for such a large construction volume. The build volume affects the capacity and size of the platform on which you build your props. Keep in mind that cosplay models require a big build volume. The scale of your project is also very important for the purchase decision.

If you are looking for durability and want to wear costumes, they should be robust and durable. Field of applicationĪnother noteworthy aspect is what you want to use your cosplay models for.
