SCRIB3D P1 3D Printing Pen with Display - Includes 3D Pen, 3 Starter Colors of PLA Filament, Stencil Book + Project Guide, and Power adapter

Sturdy, easy to use, great for all ages (parent supervision for kids). Great for art projects and expressing creativity. Great gift as well.

This is probably going to be the most in-depth review I have ever wrote on Amazon. I am doing this because I feel like it is important for when you are shopping for 3D pens. This will cover the PLA that the pen comes with, and also PLA I bought elsewhere and why I have chosen what I have. ------------------- My first impressions: I am surprised at how light the pen is. I have small-ish hands for a 5'1" woman and it felt very comfortable to hold. After reading the instructions, it states that if the PLA crackles or bubbles while the using the pen, to lower the temp. Sure, no problem right? Not really. I use wax paper to trace my designs on, I use this due to a youtube video which suggested it, and its a lot cheaper than the mats. I also prefer it over mats because it is paper thin, which gives me the most accuracy of my tracing which is important to me. I started using the pen at the default 190f. As I was using it, I noticed that the PLA did crackle in the pen, and it did form bubbles. As advised by the instructions I turned it down lower. The lowest point for PLA is 160f according to the instructions, however, it would not stick to the wax paper at all. I then tried 170f and again, the PLA would not stick to the wax paper as well as it had with the 190f. Once more I turned it up to 180f, it stuck, not as well as I would like but it was a lot better than the other settings. Also, at the lower settings it gives no time at all to adjust the plastic if you need to nudge or squish down a bump. Changing the PLA: After using most of the PLA given in the kit, I went out and bought from a local small buisiness (SUPPORT THEM!) which uses locally sourced PLA. Once more, I tried the 190f temp setting. Not only does the PLA come out much smoother, it sticks to the wax paper perfectly, and I am noticing my pen does not get near as hot using it. I can use it for much longer before deciding to give it a break. This means I can nudge the PLA, and bend it and it sticks well to my wax paper so it does not shift on me while working. I also notice that it is much less stringy than the PLA the pen comes with. PLA brand matters, and it is good to research into a good PLA, I am just glad our local PLA works this nicely. TIPS: Bonus, a tip to enjoy your pen even more. You can get a lot more use out of your pen with various other tools. A wood burner with temp control and multi tips is wonderful for shaping and smoothing your project after you had made it. Use aluminum foil covered in painter's tape to fill in big gaps to use less PLA. A course sand-paper followed by a smoothing sand paper also helps in finishing off the nice smoothness of the PLA. As stated before, Wax Paper is a wonderful material to work on. It could be used repeatedly until it eventually tears and painter's tape peels off it nice so you can adjust and move it. Look for some good youtube videos to get you started on techniques to best build your 3D Pen creations! Overall: This is a very nice pen for its cost, you can adjust the temp, its light and comfortable, also easy to use. Pictures provided show the projects I have made with this pen for my D&D sessions. The PLA that I bought works wonderful for being painted right on without any primer. If you are curious, I use 3D Fuel PLA. Someone suggested not to work it too hard, giving it a break every 30min or so, I think some times I do go closer to an hour. Always press the up button and get your PLA fully out before you turn it off (by unplugging it). Always trim the tail off the PLA. I have yet to run into any of the issues of it clogging or just turning off. Only twice did it seem to "turn off" and I think my PLA had nudged the cord since it curls, because it would auto go back to temp after.

The SCRIB3D P1 3D Printing Pen is a really fun and creative tool once you get the hang of it. It comes with everything you need to start—starter PLA filament colors, project guide, and power adapter—which makes it great for beginners, kids, or anyone interested in 3D drawing.After a little practice, it works smoothly and lets you create cool shapes, decorations, and small projects. The only downside is that it’s a little complicated to use the first time. It takes some patience to understand the controls, filament flow, and proper drawing speed. However, once you learn the basics, it becomes much easier and really enjoyable.

The quality is excellent, it works very well, my daughter really liked it, she is delighted, I am very pleased, I recommend it.

This has been a great gift for my daughter! So easy to use and she has so much fun getting creative!

I bought this 3D pen for my daughter because she loves arts and crafts, and the price seemed very reasonable. Before ordering, I did notice that several reviews mentioned the pen not working out of the box, but I decided to take my chances because most people still seemed happy with it. Unfortunately, the first one I received clearly had a defect. It wouldn’t start working no matter what I tried, and part of the charger was missing from the box. I ended up returning it the same day and ordering the exact same one again. The second pen worked perfectly, and once we got a working one it’s actually a lot of fun. My daughter really enjoys using it, and we even ordered a 3D activity book to get more ideas for projects. It’s a creative toy and great for kids who like drawing and building things. That said, I had to go through the hassle of returning the first one, and judging by other reviews it seems like some units just don’t work. Because of that inconsistency, I can’t give it a higher rating. If you get a good one, it’s great. Just be aware that you might have to exchange it if you get a defective unit.

This was a Christmas gift for my 10-year-old granddaughter. She is 100% obsessed with this pen. She has thanked us multiple times and told us how much she loves it multiple times. The butterfly was her first attempt at making something with it and did several other projects already. If you have a child that loves to draw, then they need this. The plastic cools quickly but the tip of the pen does get pretty warm but not so hot that they will get a terrible burn. Just warm enough to let you know you touched it. She seemed to be able to hold it well and commented on how easy it was to use. This one is a winner for sure.

My 9 yo son loves this. It has to be supervised because the top has to get hot to melt the material so please use with caution. It was easy to assemble and put together. It's great quality and the size is perfect for kids. It's relatively lightweight given the size. I would highly recommend it for kids and first time users

Jättebra!

ممتاز بس مش جاي معاه الأدابتور جاي معاه وصلة usb فقط واسلاك الطباعة

Muy contenta con la compra, a mi peque le ha encantado, y no es nada difícil de manera incluso para niños.

Kids will definitely need adult supervision. For kids 8 and up, you will need to supervise them at least in their first 5 hours of using it. There is hot plastic that can easily burn a child so kids 7 years and under need supervision all the time (for kids 7 and under I believe there are other models that don't melt plastic??). My 6 year old has a few turns using her older siblings 3d pen but she hasn't requested one for the time being. My kids and nephew (8 and up) and us the parents are having the best time using it. It works on Australian power outlets (I've heard with other brands you need to purchase adaptors). It is not portable. We use baking paper to make our creations. We are starting to experiment using glass cups as moulds. It definately is a worthwhile investment as it is fun to make creations and think of ways to make them. I did buy a big bag of additional filament as there is not enough provided. I bought additional filament from Amazon. But I did purchase a more expensive filament from a different store (I have not used yet). We are having a good time practicing on the budget filament to begin with and the budget filament works really well. For kids recommend to watch YouTube vids to give them ideas on what to make eg. Barbie accessories etc. Buy for creative kids 8 and up.

What a great little 3d pen. Works well uses both filament can change this on the pen. Can have hours of fun with this. Three colors came with the pen, needs to be plugged in when using, can use a power bank with it though. Daughter loves it and had done some great designs. Easy to use and comes with a little book of simple templates
